2012 Photo Challenge: Week 34

Week 34 of our 365 Photo Challenge. Back to school, a plague upon our house, what else could go wrong? Kind of a variety of subjects this week. Some with the dSLR, some with the iPhone. Even played with Photoshop a little with one of them. Can’t believe this week will be September already! What…

2012 Photo Challenge: Week 28

Week 28 of our 365 Photo Challenge. Please excuse the excess of puppy exuberance this week. It was Olivia’s first week home, so naturally she was our focus this week. She’s such a sweetie and definitely spoiled rotten already. She is sleeping in her crate at night, not with us, although she does demand cuddle…

Indulging in Guilty Pleasures

This week for our How I Write series, my accountability group is talking about guilty pleasures, both in our regular lives and in our writing. Guilty pleasures shouldn’t be ignored. Indulge in them, because there’s a good reason that you like them. It doesn’t matter that no one else gets why you like it. They…

2012 Photo Challenge: Week 27

Week 27 of our 365 Photo Challenge. I suspect this will be a very boring week visually for most of you as I documented the preparations we’ve been doing to get ready to turn the Impending Dog into Our Dog. We were expecting to go up to the breeders for a play/training date today, but…

2012 Photo Challenge: Week 26

Week 26 of our 365 Photo Challenge. Halfway point! I can’t believe we’re halfway done with 2012 and this project. I can tell that I’ve slacked off again lately and I need to push myself on a lot of fronts. Only 180-some more to go! What you see below are links to my flickr set…

2012 Photo Challenge: Week 25

Week 25 of our 365 Photo Challenge. Weekend pictures bracket this set with photos of Olivia. She should get to come home the 14th of July. Maybe sooner, but more likely that weekend. We’ve been going up to the breeder’s to visit with her I think we miss her more than she misses us right…

2012 Photo Challenge: Week 24

Week 24 of our 365 Photo Challenge. We bought a puppy last weekend. She’s a 4 month old golden retriever named Olivia. Yes, this makes her initials, “OK”. She’s very sweet, but staying at the breeder’s for a few more weeks to get in some basic training skills before we bring her home. She’s likely…

2012 Photo Challenge: Week 23

Week 23 of our 365 Photo Challenge. Yay! School is now officially done for the summer! I thought last week was crazy. but this week was worse. I got clipped by another parent while I was parked waiting to pick up the kids from school on Monday. The High School had finals so only a…
