pics to catch up by

in a valient effort

to put forth my very best effort,

here’s the last i took for day thirteen, ‘where you slept’,

before my camera ended

(it actually rattles inside like a blown light bulb when i shake it

which would be really interesting if it didn’t feel so sad).

…now the idea of actually making up

for the days i missed feels heavy and hard.

since this is supposed to be fun,

i’m gonna pick and choose the days i most wanted

to capture

and happily post them here.

…a compromise toward contentment for me…

day fourteen, man-made, the knitting.  the yellow knitting, see it?:

day twenty, work/play, my boys playing – pretending to ‘work’

(side by side at their big pretend ‘computer’ keyboard):

day twenty-five, sky, see how i snuck another extra tree in this shot?

(see day twenty-seven below to get why this has me smiling):

day twenty-seven, tree, because if you know me at all you know

how i love the bark and the texture and the entirety of trees:

i’ll be doing something like this again,

thanks to my friend sharmane who coaxed me into it this time.

let me just get through Christmas cards and birthdays and the holiday itself.

then i’ll get back to photos everyday.  honest.

‘bark’ taken from one:seven of joel.
