Project 365 Week 35

It was a good week over all.

But the photos don't reflect the blessings I experienced.
And I wonder....
"where was my camera when.....?"
Funny how after 34 weeks go by, and I remember to take pictures, then this past week -
nada.
I forgot.

Let me explain.

Monday, January 11
I went to work and then went to the gym.

(this is an old photo, but the cycle room looks the same)

Tuesday, January 11
My family and I are eating vegan only for a couple of weeks.
This is what I prepared for dinner.
Ratatouille.
It's not just a movie!

Wednesday, January 13
While getting ready for work, I hear about the tragic earthquake in Haiti.
My heart is breaking for those who are there.
And then I hear that some of the physicians that work in my building are also in Haiti, working with Doctors without Walls.
When I arrive at work, I photograph their names on the directory while adding them to my prayers. They have returned home safely.

Thursday, January 14
I went to work and then I went to the gym.
(you might be getting the picture now)

Friday, January 15
I went to work and to the gym! (ha ha)
And so is everyone else....look at the parking lot!
I did go out with a friend too! But, I was so caught up in having fun, I didn't take a photo!

Saturday, after going to the gym, (smile)
my daughter and I went shopping at one of our favorite stores.
ULTA

Sunday, January 17
I went to worship services and
I did NOT go to the gym.
I watched the Dallas Cowboys loose to the Minnesota Vikings,
and I took a nap.
A wonderful vegan potato chowder was served for lunch, and I read part of a book.
But I did not take a photo.

But it was a lovely week!
Hope yours was too,

So, I see I'm not the only one at the gym and trying to eat vegan... or at least vegetarian. ;)

I was going to take pictures every day in 2010 but I'm already behind. Oh well. Maybe I can catch up.

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...

A Promise is a Promise (Grand Canyon)

Many years ago, I am guessing about 19 of them, our family visited the Grand Canyon for one day, on the way home from a trip to California to visit family. Our eldest son was around 11, our middle one around 9, and our baby was a little over a year old. Our boys wanted desperately to hike into the canyon, but our oldest one especially so. He pleaded and my husband and I held firm our "No" as our youngest was too young and we were not outfitted for such an adventure. I promised that we would return one day. A few months later we moved to the East Coast of Virginia. Not planned when we stood at the edge of the canyon and that promise was made. And the many times we planned vacation time to the beach, our son reminded me of that promise to go the the Grand Canyon. Time flew quickly and years later we had not returned to the Grand Canyon. But, we did move to Texas and as we looked at spending time as a family, our oldest son brought this promise bac...
