November Photo A Day Challenge: Days 10~15 {In the Dark Room}
Day 10: Book When I moved out on my own, I took three things from my parents’ home: a few books, a chess set, and a doll. Day 11: Memory 1994. I was promoted to Corporal by Capt. DeMassey and the hubs. Side note, I’m pretty certain I was violating all kinds of reg with the glasses and lipstick. Day 12: Clouds The weather has been all over the place. One minute it’s cold, the next it’s hot. I need stability. Day 13: Part of Me My eyes are my favorite features, even though I’m blind as a bat without my glasses. Day 14: Eating One of my favorite salads…

November Photo A Day Challenge: Days 4~9 {In the Dark Room}
Happy Monday, y’all! I hope you guys had a good weekend. My weekend started on Friday and lasted through Sunday. Yay for long weekends! We didn’t do anything, just hung out around the house. But, sometimes, you just need to take a break and do nothing, amiright? But there are times when you really need to get away from it all… I think next time the hubs and I have some time off we’re going to try to go exploring. This week’s pictures are a mix of camera phone and DSLR shots. I find that if I mix it up I’m more likely to post a picture for that day’s…

November Photo A Day Challenge: Days 1~3 {In the Dark Room}
It has been waaaay too long since I’ve picked up my camera to shoot anything other than my clothes. Day 1: Fruit Confession: that apple was the last from a purchase from about a month ago. On one side it was wilted and bruised. Miss 18 was totally skeeved the whole time it was in her hands. Day 2: I Did This Today I do this every day. For further proof, check out my Instagram feed. Day 3: P Is For… Pretty petals on a purple flower. I’m linking up with: Fat Mum Slim ~ Photo A Day Challenge: Monthly photography challenge. If you play along, use the hashtag #FMSphotoaday…

July Photo A Day Challenge {In the Dark Room}
It’s been a hot minute since I’ve participated in the Photo A Day Challenge hosted by Fat Mum Slim. I think I’ve been so focused on running and training for my 5K that I’ve forgotten to just enjoy taking photos, I hope this will get me back in the groove. As usual, I’ll be participating on Instagram, you can follow me by clicking here. I’ll try to remember to do a weekly round up of photos here, just so I can get back in the habit of sharing something other than my sweaty face. Are you participating? Leave a link in the comments so I can check out your photos.…

December Photo A Day {This Or That Thursday}
Hi, everyone! This has been such a long week. Most of the students are gone, so work has slowed down significantly, making for long days. I’ve been spending it putting together work schedules for the student workers for next semester. And doing clean up work. But, mostly, I’ve been counting down to vacation. How’re you spending your last week before Christmas? Day 13 Lights Old St. Vincent’s Church in Cape Girardeau, MO. I love taking pictures of old buildings. There’s something mysterious and romantic about them. Day 14 Something Green My favorite green eye shadow from Bare Escentuals. It’s called “Glamourista”. Sexy, no? Day 15 Outdoors I love the…

December Photo A Day {InstaFriday}
I had my performance evaluation this week. I was so nervous. Even though you kind of have a rough idea of how things are going, it’s still unnerving to sit there and listen to someone break your work down. I always expect the worst because I stress decisions. I always wonder if I made the right one. Or if there are things I could have done differently. I replay conversations and have to stop myself from calling, texting or emailing the person to clarify. I’m not sure where this lack of confidence comes from because I know I’ve accomplished a lot. And under some difficult circumstances: young kids, cancer, a…

Happy Saturday! Do you have plans for this weekend? Today, the hubs and I are hosting a few couples from our church for breakfast. Eep I’ve never done anything like this before, so I’m pretty nervous. We’ll be serving scrambled eggs, bacon, pancakes, French Toast, fried apples, and assorted juices. The men will be having a whatever it is that men do when they get together meeting while the ladies will be having an ornament exchange. I find this more than slightly amusing sense I’m not putting up a tree this year. Long story short, the kids decided they don’t want to decorate this year. Grinches. And decorating really isn’t…

November Photo A Day {Instagram}
cue the cheering crowds I did it! I did it! I took 30 photos for 30 days. I cannot believe I did it. Some of the photos have been less inspired than others but, you know what, it’s my life and I thank God for each and every day of it. Day 25: sky This is the view from my living room window, it never gets old. God is awesome. Day 26: in the cupboard One of my favorite dollar store finds, a coffee mug. Day 27: tree The Christmas tree in the library, decorated with book jackets. Creative, no? Day 28: vehicle My big and obnoxious baby. For the…

Time for another week in review, Instagram style. I’m so enjoying this Photo A Day Challenge, it’s fun to look back over the week and see all that’s happened. The prompts may seem random but it really requires a bit of creativity to capture memories… Day 18: happened this weekend The hubs made dinner for us: Hamburger Helper for himself and the kids and big ol’ hamburgers for me. This made me incredibly happy. Day 19: something awesome Can I get a “What? What?” The hubs made dinner two nights in a row! Pork steaks, rice and stuffing (he’s not much of a veggie man). Day 20: work/play Even with…

November Photo A Day {Instagram}
It’s a beautiful Saturday morning, and I’m sitting here watching a documentary about Abraham Lincoln. He’s such an interesting character. I’d really like to go see the movie that’s come out but I know that’s one I’d have to see alone. If I asked the hubs to go, he’d say: “That’s not my thing.” Sometimes I like that our tastes are so different; other times, not so much. This week I finished reading Reach: How to Use Your Social Media Influence for the Glory of God an ebook by @laurakrokos and @angipratt. I can’t remember exactly how I stumbled across the book, but I’m glad I did. For a while,…
