exhilarating decision
embarrassingly late bedtime last night (thinking extremely overused thoughts): I really ought to exercise more. pause (again thinking nothing new): Why don’t I just get up before Robert and walk around the neighborhood? pause (answering myself): I don’t know. I can’t seem to make it happen. pause (this might have been a new idea): Why don’t [...]
post storm rainbow
We thought we were going to go out to see a movie Thursday night. And I wanted to get my weekly grocery shopping done early because Saturday is looking like a stay at home day. But suddenly we were slammed by a surprise tropical storm. I said, “I thought the hurricane isn’t supposed to be [...]
I’m on another CT!
I’m excited to have been invited to be on Trixie Scraps’ Creative Team. Here’s my most recent layout using her kit Spring Meadow. You can see it in the Trixie Scraps gallery HERE or click on the layout to visit my gallery at Smugmug, where you can see the other pages I’ve made recently.
Project 365 Day 166
Happily, going to my local photography club meeting worked out well yesterday evening, even though I had to bring my kids along.

another template: another trip to Ginter Gardens
I seem to be attracted to layout templates lately. Maybe because they speed up the scrapping process. I won’t always use them because I feel like they are kind of cheating, but right now I’ve got a lot of things on my To Do list. This template is by Marni Designs, for the challenge over [...]
Project 365 Day 127
My family has enjoyed several Renaissance Faires in Virginia and Maryland. The first one I ever attended was with my husband over a decade ago in California. It’s wonderful to be immersed in history, surrounded by period costumes, experiencing activities and foods of the time. Today’s visit to the Faire was even more special because [...]
Project 365 Day 124
Click on the photo to see my Project 365 gallery. That’s the water hose sprayer. We chased each other around the garage, pointing water sprayer and camera, shooting each other.
Project 365 Day 123
Throwing leaves is one of the many ways to have fun at the park. These two did this for quite a while, becoming well coated in leaves. I’ve been spot metering this week and liking my pictures better. Tv 1/60sec ISO100 Click on the photo to see it larger in my Project 365 gallery.
