22-28/365 [Take 2]
February 26th, 2013 Posted 1:47 pm
One of my goals for the 101 in 1001 Project is to complete the 365 Project – to snap one photo a day for 365 days. I’d started this last year and did very well, but fell off track when Eric took the camera to Burning Man in August.
Here we are. Starting again.
022/365 – Sunday, 17 February 2013
This is what a temp of 104.2 looks like 🙁 Nurse Circe to the rescue.

Adjudication. We were busy. I admit, I did not take a photo today, but I’m sharing one sent to me by Ana Hunter. Her daughter is dancing with Alek.

Exhausting week, it was 🙂
WEEK 9, YEAR 1
Cleaning means organizing our DVDs! This was Eric’s job and I don’t envy him one bit.
56/365
Alek was supposed to be doing yard work… Instead, this.
57/365
This picture reminds me of summers in Erie. I miss sunsets over the water.
58/365
Not a great picture, but even this one was hard to get. I cleaned out my sewing room [more pictures of that later] to the point that the girls could have a sleepover on the hide-a-bed. This is their view.
59/365
Cleaning out my sewing room [so the new dog can room in], I found some old art projects of the kids. Jordan made this a couple years ago. Love it.
60/365
Circe joined our family today. She’s fitting right in watching “Pretty Little Liars and snuggling with Ravynn on the sofa.
61/365
Now… she poses.

I’m really loving this project. Now, if I could just get to work on the Day In The Life photo project.
WEEK 7, YEAR 1
Sunday, the girls took some quiet time at home to work on the math projects they requested over the summer. No, really. Ravynn is 10 and is heading into 6th grade. She’s reviewing pre-Algebra and wants to learn Algebra when she’d ready. I see that happening in August. 🙂
42/365
Blessed Midsummer! Our ritual table.
43/365
The girls have gone nailpolish CRAZY! I caught them on ‘home spa’ day.
44/365
Ravynn was a dear and rubbed my feet after an especially long day. She’s dreaming up some secret plans at the same time.
45/365
Whisper with Big Girl hair after her shower. She’s always so proud when she gets it wrapped [mostly] right.
46/365
My girls are spending a week with Grandma. I do not love this, but I’m not as crazy this year as I have been in the past. Being a mom of 1 [Alek is off in Houston still] has been weird, but I’ve been able to hang out with Jordan a little more.
47/365
Friday, the world tried to fall apart. Three trees down in the neighborhood; one on a tree [this one], one on a power line, and one [behind the house you see here] on a house which started a fire. Thankfully power wasn’t out for long and the cleanup went quickly.

Should have posted this yesterday, but I used that as a catch up day. Very excited to be back on track 🙂
WEEK 6, YEAR 1
Day 35 was hard 🙁 We took Alek to the airport to send him off for a 3-week dance intensive. The longest I’ve been away from any of my kids has been an almost 1-week visit with their grandmother. Needless to say, “mama’s freakin’ out!!”
35/365
Fathers Day Dinner. Seared scallops with wilted Asian slaw. The kids told me they as good as Chef Ramsey’s. Haha! As long as no one calls me a stupid donkey, we’re good.
36/365
In my world, dragonflies = faeries. This one landed on me an then was kind enough to pose for a picture.
37/365
Pretty girls. We stopped by the park after dance camp and played in the water. Does my heart good when sisters are friends.
38/365
Yeah!!! My girls are learning something from Winnie Cooper 🙂 We picked up the ‘middle school’ book for Ravynn. She read it in two days and said that it was a “nice review”. She’s now moved on to a pre-algebra workbook.
39/365
Girls night! Ravynn did my hair in a fishtail braid that she learned from her new American Girl magazine.
40/365
Also from American Girl magazine… a poster the girls are coloring together.

Yes, we got behind again. Life… you know…
WEEK 5, YEAR 1
The girls wanted to take a walk around town looking for Walking Men Project statues. As we hunted around AU for their contribution, the girls took the opportunity to walk the fountain. Ravynn was a little more sure of her footing than Whisper was.
28/365
PIZZA!!! Homemade 🙂
029/365
Nature at Shadyside.
30/365
No matter where you go in Anderson, you WILL be stopped by a train. When we stopped for our third of the day, we decided to take a picture.
31/365
More nature at Shadyside. I love when ‘in color’ photographs look black and white.
32/365
Flat Stanley [from Cali] with the big grafitti eyeball we found in an alley downtown.
33/365
Researching and writing at Panera. In fact, those are my plans for today as well.

Yes, I plan to post these 365 updates on Saturdays, but I’ll be honest. Yesterday was difficult for me. It would have been my dad’s 85th birthday. I really just wanted to sit around and snuggle my kids.
But, we’re back at it and I have some photos from this past week to show you.
WEEK 4, YEAR 1
Last Saturday, Ravynn decided to start a 3,000 piece puzzle. She made quick work of most of the border, but then decided she didn’t like sitting on the floor to work on it, so she boxed it back up. After spending a couple of days rubbing her sore back, I thought this was a great idea.
21/365
After feeling really proud of myself for going to bed early, I was slightly annoyed with Eric when he woke me up to see this “really cool thing” in the living room. I got over that immediately when I saw this incredible dragonfly on the ceiling fan. I wish the camera had captured how gold it was.
22/365
Sweet snuggle bug waiting patiently for her turn on the computer. She got a little sun.
23/365
Yes… those raspberry bushes that I planted in the fall and keep stressing over [we need more rain!!] finally produced fruit. Two little berries. I let the girls have them. I understand they needed sugar.
24/365
Ravynn completed her Flat Person and wanted a photo of the two of them together. After watching the first two seasons of Vampire Diaries, she was understandably upset when I referred to her creation as a doppelganger.
25/365
Whisper go a foot tattoo to remind her while I was at work that I love her CRAZY BIG.
26/365
THIS is what happens when I let Alek make his own lunch… spaghetti salad. I don’t even know what to say about it…

Just about caught up with the 365 pictures 🙂 This should do it, then I’ll be back on track to post every Sunday.
WEEK 3, YEAR 1
Alek’s final paperwork ready to head off for his summer intensive. He attended his first real audition in Febrary and was accepted into a relatively high level of class. Unfortunately another dance opportunity kept him from attending the 6-week program.
14/365
While Whisper attended a birthday party at a local park, Ravynn and I took a short walk around the walking trail. How lovely that we have a little covered bridge in the middle of the park.
16/365
You’ll see a theme. I just adore the wildflowers [weeds?] that grow in central Indiana. They don’t compare to the ones I enjoyed as a child, but some of them are moving our way. I’ll do my best to photograph them as I find them.
17/365
More weeds. These tiny little flowers would be welcome all over my property.
18/365
Cleaning up the art projects the girls brought home from school. Some are just too big to realistically keep, so we photograph then and keep the pictures.
19/365
Walking Man party!! Jordan’s girlfriend created this 10.5′ masterpiece as part of the Waking Man Project. Because it was near dusk, the Anderson Indian didn’t photograph well. One of the goals we have for the summer is to find them all. Watch for photographic evidence.
