I’m extremely bittersweet about this Friday! It might sound weird, but it’s because it’s the end of the semester. It means that yes, I feel relief that I’m done with teaching for the semester, but also sadness because this is my last class {this rotation} as an academy instructor. I’m both scared and excited to be putting in an application to return, but that’s in the works. Both Scott and I have had a wonderful time here in New York and working with West Point, and it would make us happy beyond belief to be able to return!!
Now we’ve got a weekend to play with. This is our last free weekend in New York, shockingly enough! And even though we have a ton of stuff left on the New York Bucket List, we’ve actually elected to spend this weekend at home, working on house projects – for me, it’ll be photo editing from a recent shoot, splicing together soundbites for one of our upcoming advertising campaigns, chatting with my girls on Google+ {I love hangouts!!}, and finalizing grades and papers, and for Scott, it’ll be some quality time in his woodshop. He’s finishing up a wonderful new desk for me, and I’m so excited to be redesigning my workspace around this beautiful piece!
So without further ado, here’s a little Friday style for a working-at-home weekend, because even us hard-working professors and consultants have to have a little bit of down time here and there:

I’m in love with the checked flannel shirt. You can’t pry them out of my hands or out of my closets. And this one goes very comfortably layered over a tanktop and paired either with shorts or boyfriend jeans. Rolled, because, well, that’s how I roll. Nerd is in these days, or didn’t you know? 
I’m also adding in the requisite sun products, because a weekend of “down time” to me generally means I’m making room for a hike or some adventure in there somewhere! And I MUST. HAVE. that backpack. Seriously.
Here’s hoping you all have a fabulous weekend, either plugging away at the work you love like me, or actually kicking back and taking some down time, but whatever you choose to do with your time, smile. Life is beautiful, and so are you when you’re happy.
