I'm Back

So I think it was last week Thursday when I left the house and locked the door and then looked down.

Only to realize . . . I wasn't wearing any shoes.

And, yep. I think that's when it struck me that maybe I was a little overextended. Perhaps. Just a possibility.

And then on Friday when I started to get a bit light-headed during a job (fortunately toward the end - another reminder that I should always carry a snack with me while I'm shooting), that was another sign that I might want to slow down.

So yeah, I know the blog has been suffering. And I don't like to miss more than a day here and there, but life's been a bit crazy and I cut out what I could, and that happened to be the blog.

But now it's June! A new month, a new beginning, and hopefully I'll learn to manage my time better, and not overcommit myself as I always do. ("Oh, of course, I'd love to do that! No problem! I think I have a few hours in the middle of Saturday where I don't have any plans.")

And one of the saddest things about May, I think, was that I took almost no personal photos. So it's felt amazing these past few days to put the 85mm on the camera, go for a short walk, and just snap a few shots. Play with light and color and shape and not worry about whether the shot turns out or not. Because hey! It's just for me, right?

*So what have you been doing recently that makes you smile? I'd love to hear all about it.*
