Day 14: heart #febphotoaday


February Photo A Day Challenge
Day 14: heart

I wear this little heart on my "sleeve" every day.  It's a tattoo--and I love it. I will probably have it redone just a tad bigger when I go to get my next (much bigger) one but I do love this little guy so much!

Happy {belated} Valentine's Day :)

Day 10: self-portrait #febphotoaday


February Photo A Day Challenge
Day 10: self-portrait

I am the QUEEN of self-portraits so this was an easy one for me. I have LOTS to choose from :)

So I am skipping around now in this challenge.  It's rather lazy of me, actually, because the days I'm skipping are the days where the photos are especially challenging (to me).  Who knows, maybe I will get back on track and fill in the missing days...

Who else is participating??  Send me a link to your challenge in the comments box. I could use the inspiration!

Day 8: sun #febphotoaday

Day 6: dinner #febphotoaday


February Photo A Day Challenge
Day 6: dinner...does this count?

Allow me to introduce one of my favorite fast meals... Morning Star Chick'n Nuggets with Jack Daniel's bbq sauce.  No doubt MANY of you will find the idea of these repulsive, but let me tell you...they are actually delicious; and, IMO, they taste so much like real chicken nuggets it's kind of ridiculous. (I've been a pescetarian since 1999 so maybe my gauge is maybe a little off :) )

I like how this picture turned out. A lot, actually. My phone is a blackberry* so my camera options are very limited. But I played around with the camera settings and took this shot using the "text" setting - which made those little nuggets so detailed and sharp.  The plate is now empty and looking at this picture really makes me want to fire up some more!

* Sometimes I'm feel like I am the last person on earth not to have made the switch from Blackberry to iPhone, but I assure you the time is coming...soon!

Stay tuned...some of the upcoming photo challenges seem pretty fun!

Day 7: button #febphotoaday


February Photo A Day Challenge
Day 7: button

"DON'T PANIC!"  I. Love. This. Button. It lives on the cork board (next to my favorite fortune) in my home office.  In it's own humble way, it has "talked me off the ledge" countless times... so it's earned its keep in such a place of prominence. It's a vintage #FedEx button--which I've had it since at least 1998.

For now I've skipped Day 6, which is dinner... but I shall get there in due time...

Day 5: 10am #febphotoaday


February Photo A Day Challenge
Day 5: 10am

Well, I am about 2 days behind schedule on the #febphotoaday challenge.  Posting up a photo each day is actually a lot more difficult that I thought it woudl be!  Especially since the subjects might not be what I would choose; but that is precisely why they call it a "challenge", right? 

So this is my 10am from today - a big giant pot of coffee. I was literally standing, and waiting, and watching the coffee brew, while catching up on the ever-so-important coffee warnings.  I found them highly entertaining, if not a little derisive...  Pipe down, Mr. coffee pot!

Day 3: hands #febphotoaday


February Photo A Day Challenge
Day 3: hands

This one's mine... during my morning commute. 

I'm clutching the latest issue of HBR. It felt apropos to include it in the shot since I have not been able to put it down for the past five days. The cover story "The Value of Happiness--How Employee Well-Being Drives Profits" initially drew me to purchase, but every article so far has been completely captivating and thought provoking... For all my HR colleagues out there it is a must read!

The gold ring pictured, by the way, was featured in an earlier blog post from last November (here).  I originally believed the ring belonged to my birth-mother; but I learned over this past Thanksgiving that it actually belonged to my great-grandmother! Soooo cool.

And now I'm back on schedule...follow my #febphotoaday challenge on twitter and Facebook...

Day 2: words #febphotoaday

Day 2: Words

This print hangs on the wall in the center of my closet. It's my daily dose of motivation to get things started and charge the day forward with awesomeness! I should have mounted it to the ceiling over my bed so it's the first thing I see in the morning... (I love how this photo turned out a little fuzzy/grainy... precisely how I felt this morning.)

I have another print, by the same artist (Heartfish Press), which sits on the desk in my home "office" (below). It's the last thing I see when I leave the house and the first when I arrive home each day. It embodies my view of life; and I absolutely love it!
