Project 365 Week 1

I was doing a little blog browsing the other day and ran across this idea...
Project 365


I found it on Sara's blog and liked it so much that I thought I would join in.
So, beginning on Sunday, May 10, I will make my best attempt to take a picture a day.
Yep.
One photo per day for a year.
It will be fun to see what my life looks like in pictures.
Here is my very first week.

Sunday evening, May 10
Mother's Day
Jasmine growing on the gazebo in my backyard.
The fragrance in unbelievable.

Monday evening, May 11
My husband actually sitting down and watching television.
This has not been something that he has done for a very long time but doing so now since he just finished his Master's degree.



Tuesday mid-day, May 12
I was out on site visits in Ft. Worth. This church building's parking lot was right next to one of the clinics that I visited. I found it to be a beautiful building. I noticed that a conference that my church is promoting was being held there this coming weekend. (I just didn't know where the church was when I read the promotion...and then I ran into it on this day.)


Wednesday afternoon, May 13
My department hosted a baby shower for a co-worker.
We are all very excited. This baby is a surprise baby, but the family couldn't be happier.
She did have to start all the way over though; her youngest is 11 years old and all three of her children are girls. This one is a boy!



Thursday afternoon, May 14
My daughter and one of her best friends, Winky.
They are getting ready to leave for the band trip. It is Rebecca's first out of town and over night field trip. She is so excited.
#2 All the suitcases for the trip.

Friday evening, May 15
This is me and a couple of my really good friends, Jo Anne and Charrie.
We are in the same Home Group and we attended the Women's Retreat this weekend!
It was a great weekend!



Saturday late morning, May 16
My material as I spent the morning learning more about God.
That was the title of the retreat...
"More"
I am so glad that I went. We had a wonderful time and I am hungry for more of Him.

Oh! Extremely cool! I'm joining in. What a great way to learn to use my camera better. I forgot to take it to Mayfest on Friday when Lynn, Kristin and I went. Bummer.

The Unexpected

Sometimes, things just don't happen like we expect. Occasionally, the unexpected is a nice surprise, but sometimes the unexpected can turn an event, circumstance, or even a life, upside down. Last week, my daughter and I went to spend Spring Break with family. Our flight was lovely, the weather perfect, and we were looking forward to a stress free week. The first thing we did was eat lunch at one of our favorite Thai restaurants. As usual, we looked forward to our fortune cookies. We took turns reading and laughing...and then my daughter opened hers - "Be prepared for a change in plans." Uh-oh. We didn't like this one but we decided our week would be stress free and fun in spite of what a cookie said. Continuing on through out the day, all was well until that night. I sat outside on the porch of a friend I have known for 35 years and received news that changed something I have believed for 30 years. The words were horrible and made me so ill that I got sick within min...

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...
