Project 365 Week 21

This project is getting more and more difficult.
Honestly, I feel like some days, all I do is drive to work, work, drive home, cook, and get ready for bed.
Which is one of the reasons that I started this project.
This week, I missed some shots while falling into that rut.
We celebrated boss's day on Wednesday and had a lovely lunch.
I didn't even think to take a photo.
Thursday...???
hmmmm.
I don't even remember Thursday.
Oh, Rebecca was sick.

So, here is what did get captured, with a couple of fill-In's for the days I missed.

Monday, October 5
On Sunday, in the car with Rebecca and Josh, I mentioned I wanted to make chili in the crock-pot. I did. And Josh was invited to try some. I think he enjoyed it. Rebecca enjoyed having him...she actually took this picture.

Tuesday, October 6
I actually watched television...but it was really on Monday. (cheating)
I have decided I am going to watch "House". I have watched almost zero television for almost 15 years. I have decided to watch one show a week.
Rebecca took this photo too.

This is a photo of a spider that I took while on a walk.
I thought he was really cool.

And this was the first color change I saw all season, and I saw it in Missouri, not Texas.

Friday, October 9
It was middle school night at the football game. Rebecca was so excited because when she was in 8th grade, she was a "Band Aid" in the 6th grade flute class. She got to see "her" students.
The middle school students played in the stands while the high school students prepared for the half time show.

Which was outstanding.
They placed 4th in competition on Saturday for overall performance.
Woodwinds placed 1st place, so did the drill team (that is them under the blanket of gold)

Saturday, October 10
While Rebecca was at Band Competition all day, I decided to do some work around the house. If you read my Friday Fill-In's, you would notice that one thing I wanted to do was clean the linen closet. If you look at the picture, you can see why! It was totally out of control!
While I was cleaning the closet, I decided I would put the flannel sheets on Rebecca's bed, which lead to my cleaning of her entire room...total cleaning - all bedding washed, bird-cage cleaned (free of charge by mom), all clothes, washed, dried, and put away, (free organizing of the drawers while at it!), and some slight rearranging of furniture.

Sunday, October 11
Well, the Cowboys won - FINALLY!
And my dad and Glena (his wife) came over for a short visit. They brought "fall harvest".
I love it!
I think we will make some squash soup!
And Thien (my son's girlfriend) would love to be here...home made pickled ocra!
So, for me, this week...my eyes are open to new things!
Determined to find something every day to photograph!

Have a wonderful week!

I Got A Feeling....

that this is gonna be a good, good year!!!!!! I have great expectations! And I don't make New Year's Resolutions, but I do like goals. And prayers. I know God will answer prayers, and there are a few that I look forward to seeing the answer to, hopefully in 2010. It would be great if love and peace and forgiveness would win out in a few broken relationships. I am still praying. And I am look forward to how my marriage will become more wonderful, as it does every year! My health should improve since I am training for a triathlon. I lost 23 pounds in 2009. I look forward to losing about 15 to 20 more. Completing the Caveman triathlon with a couple of my very good friends is a goal that I am excited to achieve! It is going to be fun to see what God is going to do because I said "yes" to Him and stepped up into Home Group leadership with my church. And my church.... I have to say I am amazed and thrilled to love my church! What a blessing after so many years of being a s...

I Close My Eyes

Well, I did it. I took the writer's challenge at a blog that I have been lurking around for some time. I found this blog through Laura at Wellblog 's place and have been enthralled ever since. I have dabbled in poetry on and off. Written some invitations, cards, and even a few song lyrics (for fun) but have been hesitant to post any. (roaring lion? see below post ) With the encouragement of a friend, I decided to take the challenge on L.L.Barkat's blog, in a lesson on seeing. I chose a subject that is cherished, a memory that was real and something close to my heart. The beach. Many, many days were spent at the beach in the 12 years I lived on the Southern Virginia coast. The memories are real, and when.......... I close my eyes and I can still see the beach. The endless spans of water Sometimes blue, green, or gray. It moves Gently and Violently Bubbles rise and falling forward. On and on. I close my eyes and I can still hear the crash Of tidal movement As earth slowly spi...
