246/365 Back to School
“School Buddy” It seems that for most of my life that I have been on the quest for the perfect purse. Well, maybe not my entire life – just since I had to start carrying a purse and we all know when that was. And still, at 51, I have yet to find the perfect purse. Today I had an epiphany and realized why that is. As I mentioned a few days ago, school has been a part of…
245/365 Still Life
“Flowers is a Vase” It was nice to see that the day’s prompt was “still life” because still life is exactly what I had planned for my day! We had nothing on our calendar that had to be done. Yay! We slept late – really late. Considering that most of our mornings begin at 6 am, anything past 8:30 seems late. Past 10 constitutes really late!

I had a day at home. I did do some work, but it was at a leisurely pace and did not require that I be dressed by 7 am. We spent this evening with friends. It was a wonderful evening during which we shared a…
241/365 Fashion Statement
“Hell on Heels” We have already established here that I have no fashion sense. Clothes at best are a necessity and are at worst an encumbrance. Therefore, I knew that I was going to be searching for a willing participant to help me with today’s photo. Brooke is definitely the one in our family who uses clothing to make a statement. We always kid her about her shoes. She already towers over all of us by a couple of inches…
240/365 Rust
“Handle on the Past” This shovel has been around here for a long time. It has dug many holes and shoveled many piles. Though it is a bit weathered and rusted, it is sturdy and has many more chores left in its lifetime.
239/365 With Seeds
“Chance and Necessity” It is hatch chili season and we have about ten pounds of them. As I write this, Brooke is roasting them so that they can soon become sauce for enchiladas or some other such goodness.
