The adventure of life is to learn. The goal of life is to grow. The nature of life is to change. The challenge of life is to overcome. The essence of life is to care. The secret of life is to dare. The beauty of life is to give. The joy of life is to love! ~William Ward

A week in my life (Sat)

Oh, I just realized that I forgot last Saturday's post.  Grocery shopping is something I do multiple times a week.  I always start at Target since lots of their stuff is cheaper than the grocery store.  Here's a few things I picked up last week to take to the beach.  I went with my bff since high school.  We haven't gone away together, without kids, since before I got married!

A week in my life (Wed, Thurs, Fri)

I will be all caught up after today's post. 

This guy will not look at me when I have the camera in my hand.  A profile is the best I can do.  He's a major part of my life and I start every day of every week by taking him for a walk. 

This next shot is boring but it's part of every week, usually most days.  Pool maintenance is unavoidable if you want a clean pool to swim in!


This last shot is growing on me.  I had an idea and had to adjust it several times to get the look I wanted!  Several comps. A few different depth of field settings. I considered this the best of the bunch and tried to process it.  I had learned how to install Actions for PSE this morning via video link on the Pioneer Woman's website.  I installed a bunch of her Actions and tried several of them before deciding that this one would pass muster.

A week in my life (Mon, Tues, Wed)

I've been upstate for a few days, unplugged as they say.  No cable TV.  No internet. Sporadic cell phone service.  I took only a few shots each day and didn't even review them on my computer.  Here are Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday's shoots.  I'm adding one more just so you can see, I ride!

Kevin learned to tile this week.  This is our project for this year...installing a wood stove on the porch.  

We took three trips to two different Home Depots.  The first one didn't have everything we needed.  Then a third trip to buy some trim molding and to return the extra supplies.

We did have some fun though.  I carted this thing up in the back of the Ram.
