Making a Little Progress

Shelley — Sat, 15 Oct 2016 10:04:31 +0100

Rob has been away all week. I scheduled today off work so I’d be able to leave a bunch of stuff undone during the rest of the week and just focus on spending time with Maisie and getting dinner on the table. Today involved a lot of running around doing errands and picking up stuff around the house. Of course one of the things I’d put off was taking bit of time ...

She Wouldn't Get Out

Shelley — Thu, 19 Feb 2015 06:26:45 +0100

Sometimes, especially on really colds days when she's been covered up for our walk, Maisie doesn't want to get out of the amouti when we get home. She pushes back the hood and pulls off her hat and she'll ask me to help her get a toy or two and then she'll just hang out, on my back, until she's ready to get down. I think she probably enjoys seeing the house from a different point of ...

Real Pants

I'm wearing real pants again. It's cool but feels kind of strange. Those stretchy maternity pants were so comfortable.

Pictures From the Yard

A few random pictures from around our yard last weekend:

Last year's fruit and this year's buds on the crabapple tree.

What I think might be a tree growing out of the gravel on the side of the house. I should probably do something about it before it gets bigger.

I got this cute wrist strap for my camera a little while ago and finally remembered to switch it out for the plain one. I love those daisies :)

Off My Camera

Sometimes it's fun to see what I get when I download the pictures off my camera. Some weeks I'll download every evening; others I wait a few days. When I emptied my camera last night there were pictures going all the way back to the 21st.

There were some photographs of a group of ptarmigan I saw on my way to meet Rob after work. They are very stupid birds - known for walking ...

Finding Joy

I've been taking a photography course for the last few weeks. I should have been posting as we went along but just never got around to it. The course is through Willette Designs and is completely over the internet. It's designed for everyone who looks at their photos but never sees themselves and is all about getting you into your pictures (if you noticed me upload a zillion self portraits to Flickr a little while ago that what that was about).

Braids

I tried out a new hair style on Friday. What do you think? On a little girl I think these are usually called 'Heidi Braids' but I'm not sure if that holds for an adult. It was a really handy style for getting my hair out of the way and didn't have the weight of a bun.

It's a little more hat friendly than a bun too - I was able to wear my beret over the braids...
