Spirits in October, Taste of the Arts, and so much more!

So, as I stated in a Facebook status- my October is already filling up! I know I have something that first weekend (a Historic Macon event? Maybe?) but the last weekend I am already double booked. You see, I am on the Taste of the Arts committee for Macon Arts Alliance  and that Friday is Taste of the Arts. AND I am playing the role of Mary Evans Glass, one of the founders of Alpha Delta Pi, in Spirits in October for Historic Riverside Cemetary. Wheeeeeew!

Yesterday, I went to Theatre Macon for my fitting to play Mary Evans Glass. Now I should note, I am not the only young lady playing her, also filling this role are Weldon Ledbetter and Nadia Osman. I am SUPER excited to play this part in such good company! This is also special to me because I am a member of Alpha Delta Pi and I recently found out that my grandmother's grandmother (easiest way to say it), Belle Peterson Inge, was an Adelphean at Wesleyan. *Note: Adelphean is the original name of Alpha Delta Pi sorority.

!So I know it's a little early to start promoting these two events, and I will have more info on Taste of the Arts later, but keep an eye out for October! It's going to be a big, busy month. And from what I hear November is filling up as well with Festival of Trees being on November 15th and  So go ahead and start marking your calendars for this fall- we've got the fall football schedule- Mercer's Homecoming is November 10th- which is also my 30th birthday (scary!)- and the social calendar is filling up too! You don't want to miss any of the fun so go ahead and pull out that Outlook calendar or datebook now. :)

So, as if I don't have enough on my plate I am starting another blog. Now- am I a masochist? Eh, maybe. But I do have a reason for doing this. You see, I've had multiple people ask me to feature them in some way on my Make It Work Molly blog. However, they may not be directly related to fashion. So therefore I am starting this blog.

For whatever reason, some people seem to find my exploits rather interesting. So this is simply what this is for! Whether it's some event I attend one weekend or a friend's party or even a sale somewhere (and this would actually probably be cross posted with Make It Work Molly) I will post it here. And while I am now trying to post at least twice a week at the other site, this will be more haphazard. Just whenever I come across something.

So, what will be my inaugural post? Last week's open house event in Beall's Hill hosted by Historic Macon. Now, I am rather partial to historic homes in general, and I am a new member of Historic Macon's Young Patron membership. Myself and some friends went in three houses on Ash Street- two being historic restorations and one being new construction. It's my opinion that what is being done in Beall's Hill is super fantastic, with the added benefit of support from Mercer University and the City of Macon through grants towards down payments. More people should really be taking advantage of this. I was encouraged to see such a great turnout at this event.

That same evening, Margarita's in Mercer Village was offering a percentage of their proceeds to go towards Historic Macon. Very, very cool however I did not quite make it over there.

So, what's next for me? Who knows!
