happy sunday...

everything else... but

I'm on the hunt for antique maps for a client right now... And of course I find everything else but maps {ugh}. Does anyone else have this problem? If it's not one thing it's another... Of course I'm loving what I found for another client, but my new goal for 2017 has been to stay on task and check off my todo list one step at a time. So guess what I'll being doing today... You guessed it, looking for antique maps. Happy Tuesday!
