Today my sister and I went to a gathering dedicated to a foundation to help the mentally challenged. There was a parade, singing and dancing ... It was so much fun. But the best part was the number of people who showed up!! The streets were all filled up with people who came together to support one cause. As I watched the group of mentally challenged kids perform a totally cute dance, I couldn't help but be happy as I clapped along with everyone else. I can't think of anything that would spread more joy than people being there for each other. :)
NEVER EVER give Beaker access to the internet, my credit card, or my frequent flyer card....
*shakes head*
Taken me ages to get around to this not usually my scene. After a few goes I found that moving the background closer to the light source gave a better result. A mix of daylight and candlelight. Would probably have been better with the curtains closed so more influence from the candle..
"Moi pour toujours, j'envoie valser les bagues et les cœurs en collier
Car quand on s'aime très fort, c'est comme un trésor
Et ça, ça vaut de l'or."
(ou presque)
Ce n'est pas mon genre de porter des bijoux, mais que ne ferait-on pas pour une photo...
Necklace
I don't usually wear jewels, but I am all dedicated to my "almost 365" project.

(this project is way harder than it seemed starting out, for the record.)
This picture is momentous: I shot myself in profile. To the best of my knowledge it's the first one I've allowed to be posted like that, because, you see, I'm the klutz of the family. I have more broken bones and trips to the ER than the rest of them combined. (Counting both things separately. I KNOW.) I also hate milk, used to hate all dairy products, and love caffeine. So basically I'm screwed.
And that is related to my profile how? Because I've broken my nose twice. First time I tripped over my own feet and landed face down on a tile floor, smushing my nose. We pushed it back into place and I went on my way. The second time it happened I was wrestling with my younger brother and he stood up suddenly and smashed his head into my nose. Which broke. (He also did that to my mom when he was three. He has a VERY hard head.) The best part about it was that we were having our pictures taken for our parents that night as a Christmas gift. So we put concealer over the bruising and I have a very lumpy nose in that photo. (The swelling went down in a couple of days.)
So my favorite part of this story is at the time I had shorter, layered, streaky blond hair that I kept saying made me look like Owen Wilson minus the broken nose. Three days later? Yep. Broken nose. Moral of the story: don't joke about broken bones.
This is what is left of my failed attempt at my daughter blowing glitter at the camera. lol The glitter went all over the ground and made a pretty little glitter bokeh all over. :) I think it is even in my hair still. I ♥ little girls and their glitter-y sunshine-y sparkly-ness.
Project 52, week 10, 5/5. Warm.
Close-up of a neon light. I hadn't realized just how ubiquitous these are, until I went looking for them. It was easy; they're positively everywhere.

I'm always trying to avoid the obvious choice for each week's topic. For that one it wasn't easy at all...
..to know that you're by my side and distance will never matter.
ich musste ewig grübeln bei der auswahl dieses mal, und hab mich dann doch für das bild entschieden, über das ich mit sicherheit im nachhinein zu dem thema schmunzeln werde.
wir haben schon viel zusammen erlebt, ich finde, dass kann man behaupten - und dieses wunderbare wochenende voller verrückter reisegefährten, interessanter begegnungen, lagerfeuerromantik und überwältigender natur gehört definitiv zu den positiven und abenteuerlichsten erfahrungen, die wir bisher zusammen sammeln konnten. ich danke dir für jede minute und dafür, dass ich dich bei mir hab. das macht mich verdammt glücklich, und mehr gibts da auch gar nicht zu sagen :)
Today, we went on a photography workshop in Blijdorp Zoo with the resident photographer Rob Doolaard.
Lucky enough, it was feeding tme for these little critters and they we're fighting for the one mouse.

Fidget spinners zijn kleine draaischijfjes met drie uitstulpingen. In het midden een kogellager die kinderen tussen duim en wijsvinger kunnen klemmen, waarna het met een zetje tegen een van de uitstulpingen gaat ronddraaien. De draairing geeft een zoemend geluid. Er zijn spinners in diverse soorten en maten. Sommige lichten op in het donker.
