Life Changing

Wednesday, May 27th, 2009

Back in February, UniGlory moved into a studio space in Elgin, IL. We signed a 2 month lease just to test the waters, and quickly fell in love. In March, I discovered that I was pregnant and the idea of spending money on the studio space didn’t make sense. It was really hard for me to give it up, but I knew that moving the studio back into my house was smart for my family and business, especially in this economy. My motivation was to SAVE! SAVE! SAVE!

Before setting up UniGlory in our house, we decided to upgrade the loft with new floors, paint and some updated furniture. The redesign really made a difference and we love working in the new space. Check out the updates, we are so happy with it!

After being a crabby/tired pregnant lady for almost 3 months we ran into some complications. At the end of April we found out that the baby didn’t make it and I had to go through a D&C. Daniel and I were completely heartbroken. I immediately wanted to blame myself for doing something wrong that hurt the baby. After a few days I was able to calm down and put the situation in God’s hands. It took me a week or so to recover from the D&C procedure.  While I found peace with where things are at now, I truly hope I never have to go through that again.

I could have continued to beat myself up, or wallowed in heartache over this unfortunate turn of events, but instead Dan and I have begun to put the many lessons we’ve learned through these life changing events to use.

UniGlory Studio has a New Home in Elgin, IL

Thursday, February 5th, 2009

I am proud to announce that UniGlory Studio is no longer located in the loft of our beautiful home. YAY!!! After a year of working from home, Dan and I were in desperate need of something new. It has been 1 week since the big move and we couldn’t be happier. The new studio is a shared space that houses a few other small businesses. One of the businesses is a colleague of ours and we have been collaborating even more since the move. Dan and I are glad that we made this leap and are looking forward to growing as a business.

I posted photos of what the space looks like on flickr, so check it out! Visits are welcome, just email us.

Welcome to Bloggy Blog World!!!

I feel like the first entry is always the most awkward. It is kind of like going on a first date, but you can’t see the person you are talking to. I am a little nervous about how my personality is going to come across in writing. Most people think I am a little quirky because I love to make people laugh. I am also known to say out of the ordinary phrases such as AwesomePants, JerkPants, Balls, LameBalls, Tabadda (to bother), and sometimes speaking in a lisp gets a good laugh. I will point out that saying “Balls” is a good replacement to most swearwords. Give it a try, you won’t regret it, potty mouth.

Anyway, down to all seriousness, I am looking forward to adding entries to Bloggy Blog World. LOL, that name is amazing! No seriously, I plan to keep updates on all the things UniGlory is doing as well as documenting inspiration, helpful facts and other stuffs.

Oh shoot… put in the ear plugs! Dan just decided to plug in and play guitar, welcome to my life ☺
