Photo a Day Fail

Guys... I've kinda failed on this whole Photo a Day thing, haven't I? I've forgotten to take pictures for the past four days. Sorry about that.

I'm less sorry for you guys... Cause you probably don't care about seeing the inside of my bathroom cabinent, or a photo of money, or yet another photo of something I've eaten.

I feel a little bad for myself that I didn't follow through on this monthly goal. But don't worry. I won't feel bad for very long. In the life-spectrum of things, not taking four or five pictures probably won't change much.

The brain space I've used to focus on homework or that boy or my spiritual well-being or upcoming travels instead? Now that might change some things.

Photos a Day--21-23

Your shoes:

My boots! I love these boots.

Where you work:

This is rather uninspiring, isn't it?

I suppose I could have taken a better picture,

but that would have required me going back inside,

or finding a good camera angle,

and I was just ready to get out of there for the day!

A fave photo of you:

Hanging with Scrappy again after a month and a half of not seeing him.

He still loves me!!!
I was so, so happy!

Photo a Day: Something You Ate

My favorite chocolate!

Dark with a touch of Sea Salt.

Mmm...mmm.

Photos a Day--Catching Up

Time:

Keeping time at a Jazz game.

We kicked butt, p.s.

Although, we were just playing the Wizards,

so big whoop...

Drink:

I drank water almost exclusively yesterday

as I was trying to replace all the water I lost

through sweating a crap-ton at the gym.

Something I hate to do:

I don't mind the subject matter in my Human Behavior and Leisure class,

but the teacher's voice in my online lectures

makes me want to die.

Photo a Day: Something New

Thrifted (new to me!) peacock shirt.

And a new breakfast item!

(but mostly, I just like the picture...)

Photo a Day: Phone

Receiving text messages makes me happy.

Photo a Day: Heart

Wearing my heart on my finger...

...rather than my sleeve today.

Happy Valentine's Day, my lovely friends.
Much, much love to you
where ever you are
and whomever you're with.

Photo a Day: Blue

The grey blue sky over Salt Lake this evening.

I'll never get over the beauty of this city.

Photo a Day: In Your Closet

All the belts and scarves that hang below everything.

Photo a Day: Makes Me Happy

Ray and I went to a session at the Oquirrh Mountain Temple.

I told him that I had to take a picture for something on my blog

that makes me happy.

His response: Just take a picture of me!

Cute boy...

And then, on our drive home,

we found this happening:

Fireworks!

These were going off at Gallivan Plaza for no apparent reason,

probably other than to make me giddy happy

like only fireworks can.

Photo a Day: Self Portrait

I'm not very big on the self portraits.

And I especially didn't want to give you any kissy face pictures.

I snapped this in a hurry as I left the house

5 minutes late for work.

And then I forgot to take a different, better picture later in the day.

Photo a Day: Front Door

Leaving the front door cracked.

P.S. First school quiz of the semester: 94%

School isn't all that bad, I guess...

Photo a Day: Sun

Obviously, our weather has been quite overcast

But I still managed to capture a picture of the sun.

Photo a Day: Button

I couldn't pick just one button.

So I went for many.

push-start ignition//glove//flannel//lemon button//winter peacoat

Words of Wisdom

as brought to you by Kristin Krogue Fredrickson.

When using a highly minty conditioner make sure you wash your sensitive bits before applying it to your hair. It stays on your hands.

This has been Words of Wisdom.

Photo a Day: Dinner

After the gym, I had plans to eat leftover beans and rice.

Unfortunately, the leftovers had gone bad.

So instead, I tried out a recipe I had seen earlier today

Roasted carrots, parsnips, and chickpeas.

It is finished off with feta and parsley.

Yum.

Recipe found here.

Photo a Day: 10 a.m.

I missed a day.

I was going to try to come up with some ridiculous excuse like,

I don't know any strangers! All people are my friends.

But, the fact is, I forgot. Until 9:30 p.m. when I was already in pajamas

and nothing was getting me out of the house.

But I remembered today!

This picture was taken about 5 minutes after 10 a.m.

But I was in church and distracted by the spirit.

Or by this cute guy's hand...

P.S. I was apparently lying about not taking the rest of these pictures

with my crappy phone's camera.

Photo a Day: Hands

So, hands. Or paws.

This is roommate Lacy's cat, Oskar.

He likes to stick his paws under my door.

Like we're playing a game, but only he's aware of the actual rules.

Photo a Day: Words

My first typed assignment since going back to school this semester.

P.S. I'm going to sincerely try not to have every one of these pictures be from my camera phone because I know the picture quality is subpar. But I make no promises.

February Photo a Day

Happy February, friends!!

I'm taking on a Photo a Day project.
You know, because I don't have enough to do
what with keeping up with
work
school
friends
family
dating
church

Stayin' busy.
Here's the breakdown of what this month's blog posts will look like:

And to get you started,
here's my current view at work.

I know. Not the most inspiring of images.
Perhaps I'll post more than one photo today...
Of something a bit more "view" worthy.
