Day 13

My photo challenge is up and running on both Photocrowd and ViewBug, so exciting!


Yesterday my challenge was a colorful landscape. I took off for the day with my family, but the leaves are not quite in full bloom around here just yet. Very disappointing because I'm afraid they will fall off the trees before we get the huge amount of color we usually get here in western Maine. So I got some cute pics of farm animals at the Fryeburg Fair instead.








However, riding by the Androscoggin River on my way home we spotted a few colorful trees, so my hubby pulled over and we went for a little hike and I took these:



I actually think the rain helped these colors "pop".

I've been uber busy!

I had so much free time on my hands when I began this challenge for myself, then my hubby got hurt, my kid got engaged and is shopping for a new home, just life. Life is happening. I have only taken a handful of photos in the past week, let alone join any challenges. It doesn't help that my computer died completely and my electronically helpful son has had food poisoning and hasn't had a chance to come by and look at it for me. Hubby's stitches are due to come out today, my teen needs to get 70 driving hours in, my disabled son just wants me to get in the car and drive, anywhere. Oy! Did I mention my washer and dryer recently died on me as well? Laundry mats are super fun! Said no one, ever. Anywho, I'm hoping for a few moments to get some photos up today. Would be so much easier with a computer, but I will "suffer" through on my tablet. :) All is good in the world, just a little chaotic at the moment. Hope everyone is having a great day! So far anyway. It...

First Post This Year!

I hope you had a fun and safe New Year!  As I mentioned before, my wedding anniversary was on New Year's Eve, so my hubby took me to our favorite place for a Scorpion Bowl, or two 😉.  Took a couple of my kids with us to drive, one of the perks of having a houseful of teens, I guess!   My awesome hubby bought me flowers, of course, which I promptly disassembled and took pictures of, and played around in Photoshop,  on my NEW LAPTOP that Santa (or my son's and hubby) bought me for Christmas.  I was so excited! Still am, thus all the explanation points. (!!!) Pretty, right? They are pretty all together in their vase too, I assure you.  Ok, I took a quick pic with my cell phone, just to show he did indeed buy me a "bunch" of flowers, not just the two I edited above. :) And a card too! Since I was in such a good mood, and my profile pic on HERE is now from last year, I took a selfie, cause...

So, my kids have informed me that I have a "Finsta", I had no idea. A fake Instagram,  apparently. I didn't intend to use it for any nefarious purposes, I just read a lot and didn't want to bore any of my real life friends with pictures of books or unwanted book reviews. Not one of my over 400 Facebook friends is a big reader. I share my  FB page with my hubby, his idea, not mine, and his friends are into sports and music. Not reading. So, in addition to this blog, which I actually quite enjoy but it's kind of like yelling into the wind, no one reads or comments EVER, I made an Instagram account to befriend other bookaholics. Not a crime, right? Within ten minutes I can have 20 likes on a pretty picture of a book (or 10) that I am currently reading. That makes me happy. I want no Facebook drama with real life friends so I only friended other book readers/writers/collectors. If that makes me book-ist so be it! Blogger appears to be a ghost town, anyway. Sa...
