It's been almost a whole month - again.
I'm getting sloppy - again.
(Honestly, I just wanted to make sure I posted something before Chris does...)
It's been pretty boring lately, but I have a "few" photos.
I need to stop drinking this crap. Seriously. But the condensation on this hot and muggy night was fabulous...
Pappy and I got to eat at Applebee's one weekend when Mara was out of town....
The Asplundh knock-off crew successfully removed (finally) the tree in my yard which fell this past winter. It was not a pretty sight....Pappy, Mara, Jason and I - what a crew.
Picking up the chainsaw....
A bunch of BFH's in the window....
My poor Birch tree....
Jason hasn't let me take his photo since he was about 10...so here's another...
Treats for the conquering heroes!! Notice that I'm shooting from the inside of the van...
I've also decided to put my house up for sale. This decision was not easy and it is almost killing me, but, I want to start a new adventure and having that responsibility hanging over my head is stressing me out more than it should - or more than I should let it. Hopefully, I can find a new job in another city where I'll be happy. I have High Hopes for that one!
Cloudy skies over Washington Park....
Emily was just promoted and her and Chauncey are making plans. Mara is now a bon-a-fide Sophomore at NKU. Everybody is moving on and moving up. Sometimes, I feel like I only have one oar in the water and I am getting nowhere...'Round and 'Round... This job I have now is sucking my soul dry. Some days it feels like everything I learned is slowly seeping out of my brain, leaving behind a dry husk. No one I work with has even a smidgen of common interests with me so it's hard to have any type of meaningful conversations. I always worry that my friends and coworkers will think I am talking over their heads, so I pretty much keep to myself. I miss my artist friends. Boo.
Macbeth....
I need to make something. As I am cleaning out my house, I am VERY sure I will find some type of art project buried in the vast collection of my "stuff".
And oh, do I have "stuff". (It's gonna be like Christmas!!)
Taking photos is cool and all (duh) but I need to create something with my hands - engage my brain. I wish there was some type of club to join that would hand out assignments - like the "problems" we had in Foundations class. I miss having projects and deadlines. I'm in a stagnant place in my life. Let's hope I don't start stinking like old pond water....
Froggy morning....
Here's a photo I found a couple of weeks ago on one of my hard drives...not sure when I took it (except early morning) or exactly where it is (except on my way home from work) but it is gorgeous. Isn't it nice how each day starts out with such promise and beautiful possibilities?
(Keep your fingers crossed I'll find a new profession - soon.)
Ta-daaaaa....
