This makes me smile

When all three of my kids are at the table.  When DD and I can set "five plates" for dinner.  That makes me smile.

What I Wore

I was hoping that this picture-a-day thing would spark some inspiration in me to write something profound /funny /interesting or all of the above.... not so much. So, anyway, here is what I wore to work today. A black sleeveless shell, with black polyester pants. The only thing of interest here is the sweater. It is one-half of a lovely twinset that I purchased for $6 at a local consignment shop that I love called My Best Friend's Closet. Also pictured is my beloved Unicorn Necklace that hardly ever leaves my neck. This picture was taken with my Blackberry camera, sitting in my soulless, unadorned, temporary cubicle.

Just for fun, a photo a day

According to some of the blogs I read, in order to be kind to ourselves, and stop setting ourselves up for failure, there will be no resolutions this year. There will be however, goalettes, and what I like to think of as intentions. I won't call them resolutions, but I am working toward some things this year, and in the process, learning some new things, and enjoying myself, and maybe, most importantly, giving myself things to write about! I came across a challenge for the month of January that provides just that, a small visual inspiration.

Of course I'm a few days late in starting... but in the spirit of kindness to myself, I will not let that bother me.

So here, via Spokalulu, via Patti, via Fat Mum Slim, is the January Photo A Day Challenge.

What do you think? There are no rules, just suggestions of something to take a picture of.  You don't even have to write anything, heck, you don't even have to have a blog to do this.  Just take a picture a day for your own enjoyment!  Do you want to join me?  C'mon, it'll be fun!
