Day 13 - Me with 13 Things

Me with 13 buddhas, kaun yins and ganeshas.

Day 12 - Sunset

Yes, I admit, I went back to the archives for this. Hands down, the best sunset shots I've ever taken were in Hawaii. And this was from the porch of our condo on Molokai where we were like 2 of 10 people staying at the resort. This was from my little 3 megapixel point and shoot, long before I even thought about getting a dlsr. But just one glance at this takes me right back to that porch and the blissfulness of that vacation.

Now I'm off to a concert on a Sunday night! Sully Erna's Avalon tour is coming through Baltimore and my BFF and I are going. Hopefully I can sneak some iPhone shots:)

Day 11 - Something Blue

The blue agate slice that sits upon the blue shelf which is above the blue desk (not pictured here). No problem finding something blue.

Day 10 - A Childhood Memory

A childhood memory. I had a few ideas for this post but when I found this photo on my card, this was the one. One thing I remember was always having a pet. Cats, dogs, birds, hamsters, turtles, fish, pretty much everything. Several dogs throughout the years and and more cats.

Tiki, pictured here, is the pet I've had the longest. She's almost 18 years old. Most of the family pets didn't make it past 10 or so. I would even venture to say that Tiki could be considered a pet from my childhood. I was 29 when I got her, still a kid in retrospect.

Plus who doesn't love a fisheye cat pic? Well, besides the cat:)

Day 9 - Someone You Love

Well this one was easy. First, I used a photo I already taken because unfortunately I won't see this guy again until Sunday. And second, he's definitely someone I love. Here's my hubby doing one of the things he does best, playing his bass, being the hot rock star that he is. Want to see more of him? Just click on the Shawn label:)

Day 8 - A Bad Habit

Did anyone catch the number of that bus that hit me? Whew! Got home last night about 6:45, decided to relax a bit on the couch in the cold, dark basement. By 7:00 I was too cold down there, so I went up in the bedroom to relax and pet the kitties for about a half hour. Next thing I know, I'm waking up, completely out of it at 10pm. And the only reason I got up then was to feed the cats, who I think kept coming in the bedroom and trying to rouse me while I was unconscious. Not sure if it was the heat here in the mid-Atlantic but something wiped me out. So I'm posting yesterday's image today and will get today's later.

So a bad habit. I've got a few but I'd have to say my worst bad habit is being on the internet, in particular, Facebook too much. And now that I have an iPhone, it makes it so much easier. Where I used to have some self-control because I didn't want to sit at the computer now I can just grab the iPhone, sit on the couch, AND even have lap time with the old kitty while I peruse Facebook or text or email. A few weeks ago a girlfriend and I were Facebook messaging, texting and emailing at the same time! Finally we just called and talked.

All of this is really a mechanism for my really bad habit of procrastination. I'm a master at it. So let me get off of here and get to work!

Day 7 - Fruit

So if I had been on top of my game this morning I would have taken today's photo when I was filling the blender up with berries making my morning smoothie. But no, I was tired and out of it. So my fruit photo is of my favorite popsicle, Edy's Fruit Bars Pomegranate flavor. Yummmmmm...

A funny little story behind this. Two years ago when I discovered these amazing popsicles Shawn noticed that I would leave the stick behind, wherever I happened to be when I finished it. Kitchen table usually. So when he mentioned one day that I never threw them away I was like huh? Really? Well then maybe those sticks need something done with them.

So if I remember, I took a stick and left it under the windshield wiper of his van. He got a good laugh out of that and the stick is still in his van. Then I took a stick and drew a stick man on it, and popsicle stick man was born. And left it on his keyboard in his office. Snicker:) And he loved it. The first popsicle stick man sits on his desk.

Then I took another stick and drew a stick man on it, maybe with long hair and put it in his guitar case to find when he went to a gig. I'm trying hard not to laugh now. And I do believe that popsicle stick man is still around.

And most recently I drew a stick man on a popsicle stick making the rock symbol with one of his hands and left it in his gig bag to find at another gig. And now Shawn has a collection of popsicle sticks, i.e. trash, that he can't throw away!

So as I sit here and look at my popsicle stick from my just finished treat I'm wondering what's the next step in popsicle stick man's life:)
