Fun

Here is something that may be fun! Go to my 365 project blog and vote for your favorite picture from January and February. I picked nine to vote from, but if there is another (not from March) that you like better let me know.

This has been such a fun and inspiring project for me. I started it initially just to get in the habit of taking everyday pictures more often. I tend to be an event picture taker and am envious of those who have pictures of their bookcases and their trips to Starbucks. I wanted to be one of those people and now, I think I can say, I am. I take pictures of everything. The pictures aren't always good, but I like them because they are of my everyday - places I go, things I use, people I see...

I hope you enjoy this process along with me - through taking your own everyday photos or looking at mine as I post them. I really enjoy and appreciate your comments - doing this everyday is a challenge sometimes. Sometimes I don't want to take a picture, load it on the computer, upload it, post it...It just seems like too much. But then I post it. I see all the photos in their folder on my computer and I feel good. Really really good.

So thank you for looking and being part of this process with me. It is more fun with friends!

P.S. My friend Sharon has taken on this challenge with me. She has taken some great photos (see this ladybug one). I love that I can go to her daily photo and get a glimpse into her everyday - I may not know exactly why she took a particular picture, what motivated her or inspired her, and I may not know what she did that day, however I get a feeling of what is going on...Love it. Go visit - you'll be glad that you did!

  1. I am VERY glad that both you & Sharon are participating in this project. It's been fun to watch & be surprised by many of the pictures. I'm not ready to do the project myself yet but you are definitely motivating me to think about it for next year. Keep up the GREAT work!!!

  4. What is that book that Archer is reading in "Engrossed?" I MUST know! I've read that book, I'm sure of it but I can't think of the name!

    That was my pick because reading is the BOMB! :-)
