Softball is a dangerous past time, especially when your pitcher thinks it’s easier to hit you when you’re running to first base than to throw the ball all the way to the first baseman.
Boys are dumb.

3.27.365: A ghetto-tastic Kludge
On my last hike up to the mountain, I was pulling my camera out of my backpack when it slipped out of my hands and landed lens first on a rock. The clips that hold the lens onto the body shattered, making it impossible to keep the lens attached.
I may have cried a little.
I know this is a stock lens but it is the one I use every single day. It works for me. I like it. It likes me. We make beautiful pictures together. Since a new lens is WAY out of my budget this month, I went with the ghetto way out. When in doubt, grab the duct tape.
Hey- at least it was pretty duct tape.

3.26.365: Day three: Will it never end?
These children, always with the wanting of dinner. EVERY night.
I like cooking when I feel like cooking. When I don’t? I feel like crying a river of salty tears every time I hear a small voice say, “Mama, what’s for dinner?”
I don’t know, child o’ mine. When are you going to learn I never know until it’s 6pm and I’m standing in front of the fridge?

3.25.365: Day Two: I myself am made entirely of flaws, stitched together with good intentions.
I say I’m not going to eat anything after dinner. Then 10 o’clock rolls around and I begin to hear the sweet siren song of a package of unopened Lemonades. Who could resist going into the light?
Not I. I’m weak when faced with Girl Scout Cookies. Weak, I tell you.

3.24.365: Opening Day
Let me introduce you to my friends, my soul-sisters, and the sexiest Mamas on the planet. I love these girls.
It took me a long time to find them but it was worth the wait.
In this picture we’re hanging out in the Snack Shack on opening day of Little League. We’re working hard, in between hardly working.

3.19.365: Something Funny
Phineas, the wonder pup. He’s constantly in a state of wonder. “I wonder what that is, I wonder what this is, I wonder what will happen if I stick my nose here.”
Today he learned if he sticks his nose in my camera, I will take his picture.
Silly dog.

3.7.365: Something you wore today
Orange Orange Tshirt and skinny-girl jeans I couldn’t fit my butt into a month ago.
Doesn’t it feel great when you can button a pair of jeans again?

3.6.365: 5pm is pointing me home
Since I spent yesterday frolicking in the woods, it’s only fair that I spend today doing all the things that drive me crazy. I Walmarted, eye-doctored, and visited my friendly Lady Parts Doctor. Good times, all around.
At 5pm, I was driving home and trying to find a positive spin on driving away from blue skies into dreary clouds. I decided that driving away from the valley is always positive.

2.21.365: A favorite photo of you
I love this photo for many reasons, not the least of which is it is so very 80′s. It doesn’t matter that I think it’s from 1990. I wasn’t ready to give up my Aquanet bangs and purple plastic glasses yet.
I think I can hear the Saved By The Bell theme song in the background.
