Plan | Picture Me

I didn't plan on going up to the school on this Labor Day holiday, but there was a report from neighbors that a septic alarm might be sounding in the area. Thankfully it was just a quick trip, and it didn't appear that it was the school's alarm.

Bag | Picture Me

After Christmas I used some of my Christmas money to splurge on a new bag.  Here I am heading out for the day, with Ripley following close on my heels.

Picture Me

Most of the snow got washed away by the rain yesterday, but I did decide to play with Lego tonight.

Welcome | Picture Me

I generally welcome the new year by watching the Rose Parade.  As a former marching band member, I just love all of the bands and beautiful floats in this parade.  I think this is the 8th year that I have been involved in trying to take a picture every day.  Wednesdays usually find me bowling, but as this is a holiday our league is on a break.  I am also a math tutor, and I serve on the board of a Christian school sponsored by church.  Our head of school resigned last April, and I have had to pick up a lot of slack at the school while we conduct a search for a new head of school.  Because of those extra duties, I had very little extra time (or energy to be honest) to focus on photography and rarely posted after April last year.  While we haven't quite hired a new head of school yet, I am going to try my best to get back into the habit of taking a picture a day and posting it.  Happy New Year!

I'm ending the year spending some time working at the school where I have been spending a lot of time since April.

Let It Go

Today I let go of some extra hair.  I was finally able to get to my stylist to get a much needed trim.  It felt good to finally get that extra four inches cut off.

Picture Me

Today we did Christmas with my husband's family.  I remembered to get a picture of myself today in front of the tree in my in-laws' house.

Action | Picture Me

I usually get groceries for the week on the weekend, and now that it's just my husband and myself everything usually fits into just two bags.

A Message

I spent today with my best friend celebrating her birthday.  Among other things, we went to the Museum of the Shenandoah Valley to see the exhibit Marvelocity: The Art of Alex Ross.

Share the Love

I got my hair cut today.  I wanted to get it cut back in December, but when I looked at my calendar I realized that I didn't have any openings in my schedule between work, traveling, and Christmas festivities.  Unfortunately, when I made the appointment there was a bit of confusion, and I ended up getting booked with a different stylist because mine doesn't work on the first Friday of the month.  I decided to keep the appointment because apparently the last time I got my hair cut was July.  The stylist did a great job!  Here's my new do and a look at a new shirt that I recently bought at 75% off!  You have to love when you find a bargain.  The part that's covered by my hair says "Stay wild moon child."

On My Walk

On Saturdays I usually walk on my elliptical.  Today Ripley decided to photobomb my picture so she could look outside at the birds.

Quiet

My favorite place to find quiet is while I'm reading just before bedtime.  I'm currently reading A Clearing in the Distance by Witold Rybczynski about Frederick Law Olmsted and China Rich Girlfriend by Kevin Kwan.

Picture In A Picture | Droste Effect

Technical Challenge

I was going to go with a different idea for this photo, but another snow day off from work gave me more time to work with this prompt.  Thanks to my husband I didn't have to drag the tripod out into the snow.  I don't use Photoshop so I used the easydroste app.  Details: f/5.6 | 1/1000 sec. | ISO 200 | 89mm

Laugh

Picture Life | Gratitude 
More birthday fun ensued today.  My best friend and I had lunch and then went to the Green Valley Book Fair in Harrisonburg.  When we get together, there is always much laughter.  Because it was raining earlier in the day, we almost forgot to take our picture, but we squeezed it in right before leaving.
 

 A few pictures from lunch at Olive Garden too.


 

And some pictures after we left the book fair.

Option

Picture Life | Traditions | Where I Stand | 10 O'Clock
At 10 o'clock I often head out the door for the day's activities.  Options for the day include deciding whether or not I need a jacket and whether or not to go to the gym.
