April - Taking Stock

April 30, 2016

MADE:   A commitment to join an on-line photo class

COOKED: What I realize is, I don’t cook many things out of the ordinary.

DRANK: Slightly addicted to Dripp’s Spanish Latte.  Had it twice this month!

READ: Reading a book called ‘5 Habits of a Woman Who Doesn’t Quit” it’s a Bible study based on the book of Ruth.

SURPRISED BY: How beautiful people can be.  I had a notary job and since part of the party didn’t show up and we couldn’t complete the notary, the man paid me for my time.  More than I charge for the one signature I was going to notarize.  I at first told him it was okay.  But he was insistent on how my time is valuable.  I accepted when he said take the kids to frozen yogurt with it!

RECEIVED:  Beautiful post cards from Chicago from a pen pal in a project called “love notes” it’s keeping snail mail alive.

LISTENED TO: My Brightest Diamond

ADVENTURES:  Headed to San Francisco early this morning. To see our first born and his new place.  Help him get situated.

WISHED: San Francisco was like 30 minutes away.

ENJOYED:  My coffee date with my cousin Jeanie whom I always enjoy spending time with (1st Spanish Latte) and then the very next week got to meet up with a beautiful friend I went to school with from 8th-12th.  She was uplifting then and even more so now.  She gave me thoughtful gifts and it was such a great time to catch up.  (2nd Spanish Latte)

WORKED ON:   practicing shooting pictures.  I practice every single day. 

DIDN’T: walk as much as I wanted

WATCHED: My friends 1 second per hour video a day in her life. We each made one.  It was our video project for April.

NEEDED: To play a tiny bit of catch up on our mother daughter portrait project.  But I said this recently “it’s a 52 week project…doesn’t mean it has to be 52 weeks in a row”

CELEBRATED:  Austin turning 21 in my own way, without him physically being here. I can’t believe I have a 21 year old man.

BOUGHT:  the most happy rainbow cardigan sweater

FELT: Worry of a mother, I know I’m not supposed to but I’m as human as they come.

DISCOVERED: my teacher for photography lives nearby and we have quite a lot in common so we may just meet for coffee! It’s a small and beautiful world it really is.

I have been spending more time on You Tube and if you would like to visit there, I would love to see you.
