Like most women these days, I have been taught that I need to be perfect. A perfect mother, a perfect wife, a perfect daughter...a perfect size...picture perfect in every way. One of my goals this year is to spend more time loving the person I am, inside and out. I will strive to not be so hard on myself. I will try to look at myself through my daughter's eyes and love myself - all of me. Accepting my faults and acknowledging my strengths will show my daughter that being imperfect IS perfection.
so much to do... so little time...
(and even less memory capacity at the moment!)
I've spent all week seemingly behind, out of sorts and just overwhelmed with it all.I was sure most the day it was really supposed to be Friday. *sigh*
if there's anything to rejoice in, it's the fact that I've hit a bit of a milestone: 25 days. w00t!
yeah, that. and Jesus loves me. Big time. *shrug* so it's all good!

Utata's Iron Photographer challenge #224 inspires photos with the following elements:
1 - something to drink (rum, for some)
2 - a note to self (while cooking)
3 - soft color (vibrance, saturation turned down)
The "soft color" component is poorly defined, so I chose a pastel post-it then, in lightroom, turned down vibrance and saturation by 20%.
Being ready is sometimes hard.
Sometimes I have to convince myself.
I've been having this discussion in my head all night long. actually for the last year.
How do you get ready for something really, really, really difficult??

After a very difficult meeting at work in London it was great to meet up with Annette for a quick coffee and a sound-off. (thanks for that!)
But a bit cold and wet to hang around to get more than one shot - and I had a train to catch in 2 minutes. (Besides being worried that someone would steal my camera!)
