Week 3 of August

Life has been so busy lately and I think of my blog and photographs and words to say all the time, but just haven't sat down to follow through...

First off, weeks 2 and 3 had to be combined because I had some fun family activities come up that kept me from meeting week 2 goals. During week 2 one great thing did get accomplished, though. Remember that awful desk and the state of clutter?

TA-DA!


Although the painting wont be done for another couple of weeks, here is what that corner looks like for now:


I'm so excited!! It's so much nicer. I love the cozy look.


Some day I am going to have a more critical eye and catch things like that baggie behind the tomatoes...






I would love to take some of those and have fun playing with apps... maybe some day... I don't know why, but I really like the one that flew in the wind and turned out blurred. It's just so neat!

Here's our single, happy pumpkin growing:


Since we've been looking at nature, why not the moon? A friend sent me some cool moon photo ideas. My first couple of shots do not come anywhere close to what she sent. I have a lot to learn still. No matter what aperture I dialed in, I could not get the person and the moon equally in focus... Now I watch for moonrises...



And speaking of nature and the moon...


Well... not sure what that has to do with nature or the moon... but, isn't he just splendid? Well, yes, that does have something to do with nature and the moon. You see, he loves our willow tree... and the moon was out.

Now I am off to work hard on goals for this week... again...

Blessings!!

PS Yes, if you look at my new desk setup, there is a paper with pictures of Zeva from NCIS printed... she inspires me. And my kids laugh when they open up the desk. Each one says the same thing: "Really, mom?" And I laugh. Cause you have to keep your kids guessing sometimes.

You can grow everything we can't grow because we don't get enough sun! Lettuce on the other hand...
