monday morning...

hanging on and letting go...

    quote by barbara deAngelis

a bit behind...

i think i am over-committed...
i keep taking self portraits but my plan to post it every day has gone to hell.
so i am going to catch up bit by bit, and then get a better plan put together.
this is important to me and i think i will learn a lot. 

May 3, Thursday...
reflections in the evening :)










May 2 Wednesday...
surrounded by cats, joey's chair empty...my first night in the house without him since 2008. at least this time, he is at cape cod, not the hospital... :)

May 1, Tuesday...
i went for a ride, looking to photograph the word 'distance' for the photo hunt word of the day.  i needed it bad, it was a pleasure and i got nothing as far as pictures.  i was ok with that.  i think the photo hunt is pushing me over my limit...not sure yet

April 30 Monday...due date for chairman's award - quite a relief to get that behind me!  i finally got home, sat down on my couch and did not want to take another picture for a while.  but i did and isnt it lovely :)

April 29, Sunday...

time to go back to work.  drove hundreds of miles and got lots done but was wishing i wasn't working.  it was one long day...

April 28 Saturday... time for bed...

April 27, Friday...

shadows on the beach, as vacation comes to an end ...

April 25 Wednesday...i spent thursday taking pictures - tons of pictures, to submit to the chairman's.  i don't believe any of them were of me.  however on wednesday, i took lots of me and marilyn :)

April 24, Tuesday... 

this was a wonderful day, i loved it. we took pics all day long, very few were good but we had a great time.  and the wind was absolutely awesome!

plus we watched a shoot for a nautica catalog on the beach in chatham. 

and got a great shot in the bathroom window :)

April 23, Monday...

if i stayed married the first time around, this would have been my 35th wedding anniversary.

many years ago, i looked in the mirror at my life and realized i couldn't live this way and had the wisdom and courage to leave. 

i honor both decisions on 4/23 each year -

i am proud for having gotten married and proud for having left.

for what is is worth,

i believe i am now caught up.

i took many pics and will post differently going forward.

its not about consecutive days, is it? 

 it's about who i feel i am at this point in my life. 

or maybe it's about who i see myself becoming...

this is a work in progress and i am still working out the plan :)
