Day 327


Heavy things

A lot of different thoughts and ideas were racing
through my head. Trying to figure out
where I need to be.
wondering
where
the time
has gone.
lost

Day 326


from my perspective

I took this image as I was just about to leave from work.
I though it was a beautiful sunset and I liked the fact that
my windshield was dirty.

Day 325


Blue eyes in the back seat

I took this photograph of Lila in the back seat
wearing her new winter coat.

Day 324


In true color

Some days I want to disappear.
Some days I want to dream.
Some days I wonder where I am,
where I am going.
Is there a point to all of this?

I think the answer is believing
in yourself.
Letting your talents and abilities thrive.
Enjoying family & friends.
Taking the moment and making
it yours, no matter what anyone says.
Breathing the air.
Taking a chance.
Realizing that the beauty that exists within you
has always been there if you just look
a little closer.

Day 323


Self Portrait in low lighting

Day 322


Lovin' with stuffin'

We had an amazing
turkey dinner with all of the extras.
Everything was delicious and
I was comfortably stuffed.

Day 321


Getting ready for the season

Curious and cute Lila is testing out
what she can and cannot get away
with by the Christmas tree.
So far so good.

Day 320


Spaghetti Girl

My grandmother would be so proud.

We shared some great spaghetti and laughed and danced.
Life is good when you are blessed.

Day 319


Cat Eyes

I took this picture of a tired
kitty as she was lying on the ground.
She looked at me and didn't even
care that I was there.

Day 318


Twigs and berries

I took this image today in my backyard.
I like the shallow depth of field and the contrast
that the red color gives against the brown background.

Day 317


Frisky Squirrel

I caught a glimpse of this squirrel as it was running on the fence.
It paused for a brief moment and that is when I captured this
moment.

Day 316


Words to live by...

She moves me

This picture shows Lila traveling at a fast pace around the house

Day 313


NYC

I spent the entire day in the city for business
and the only real photo opp I had was
in the back of a cab.
Oh well.
I still love NYC.

Day 312


Luigi's

I had truly forgotten how great this place is.
This is about as close to my grandma's homemade meat sauce as it gets.
I had not been here in years and nothing has changed.
The decor is the same.
The jukebox has the same records.
I love Luigi's.

Day 310


Frost Bitten

I saw these leaves covered with morning frost
and loved how it changed their appearance.
Quite beautiful.

Day 309


Walk in the park

I took this image as I was wondering around
a park close to my house.
Lately the weather has been in the mid 60's & sunny, for November
this has been great.

Day 308



Glass pieces

These are the samples I made @ my glass blowing class.
I think it is very intersting how they turned out. You really have
no concept of the color when you are working on a piece.
Mike's stuff looks really cool too.

Day 307


In the morning

It is getting darker at night now, so the morning
is becoming more interesting to me.
Full
of
bright interesting colors.

Day 306


Christmas Lights

I put the tree up the other day and decided to take a
few pics in the process. It's that time of year.

temperatures.

Day 303







Glassblowing 101

My friend and I decided to take a glass blowing
class at the Peninsula Art Academy.
We had talked about doing this years ago. I met Bob "the instructor" at the Tremont Art Festival and I knew our time had come.
This was one of the best
experiences I have had in quite some time.
I can't wait to see the finished results.

Bob you are truly the man, a great instructor.
I needed this experience.
Thanks for everything.

Day 300


More of me than you'll ever know...

300 days in and I have learned so much.
This blog is almost like a diary to me in away.
An opportunity to relive moments both good and bad.
To dream and realize where I am in my life.



Day 299


So fresh & so clean

Straight out of her bath after fighting the flu, I snapped
a quick pic of my favorite baby.

Day 298


The Fall Harvest

These are the vegetables we managed to grow in a very short
amount of time. Not bad for my first attempt at a garden.


Day 297



Haunted Doughnuts

I never knew that they have special Halloween
boxes for doughnuts @ Krispy Kreme.
A great way to celebrate the day.

Day 296


Another Fine Artist?

I took this pic of some of my daughters artwork
hanging on the fridge. I find it interesting
all of the artwork she puts together in daycare.
