It's Monday

And good lawd it feels like it.  The 3/5 of the family that was gone for the weekend is now back.  And it's like they never left.  So, I'm going to put on my optimistic, happy hat and make this list.

  1. I am planning on taking deep breaths so as to not raise my voice anymore with the kids.  
  2. I am planning on not going insane with adding Sweet Pea's vision therapy to my schedule this Thursday.
  3. I am planning on getting my runs in despite how crazy busy this week is going to be.
  4. I am planning on drinking more water.  No specific goal, but more than I have been.
  5. I am planning on taking the kids skiing tomorrow.  I'm hoping the weather isn't too blustery and snowy so they can have a good lesson.
  6. I am planning on looking at my board package BEFORE the weekend.
  7. I am planning on doing my best to not be overwhelmed after my relaxing weekend of being a single mother to one.
Do you have a plan this week?

    My plan? Hmmm...just trying to make progress in all the areas of life that are important to me right now. From my teacher training, I know that such vague objectives mean I'm unlikely to make any real strides....

    Thanks so much for stopping by my blog last week and for your sweet comment--it's good to be missed :) Sorry I haven't been over here in awhile. I got really behind, too.

    Good luck juggling things this week--it looks like a busy one!

    Good luck with your plan and your training! I haven't made a plan yet for this week. Mostly because it ends with a long awaited girls' trip. So no need for motivation, right?

    I love this idea! Putting the plan out there for the world to see (or my 5 readers?! LOL) Talk about accountability.

    This week my plan has been to make it through. Lots of deep breaths. :-)

You Capture - DOF

I loved this challenge.  I've been striving to find "the" depth of field picture that just speaks to me.  Luckily I had lots of opportunity this past weekend to find the pictures I wanted to.  On Saturday I boarded a bus to California's Amador County wine country and visited 4 different wineries with a friend. These were so bright and beautiful and simple. The colors!! Perfection! I took about 20 pictures of this door trying to get this perspective.  I love this one.  This was another one that was may favorite of about 20.   I think it's the burst of orange.   I can't wait to see all the beautiful pictures everyone else is going to post over at Beth's.

You Capture - Best Shot

I suppose after two weeks of getting assignments and pictures that I *really* liked, it was time for me to struggle.  I wasn't taking any pictures that just spoke  to me.  But then again, it took me a long time to start taking pictures that I really liked. But I do have a couple that I think were my best for the week.  Hey, I've got an idea! Let me share them with you! This was taken on a hike the two older girls and I took last week.   And then we had our first harvest. One lone strawberry.  There are many more growing.  We are trying to keep the birds from nibbling on them before we get a chance to pick them.  Check out what other's thought was their best shot over at Beth's.

You Capture - Faces

Beth? Are you out there?  Because I loved this challenge.so.much.   I think I captured a lot of love here too.  Oh, how I love her sweet face! And check out the eyelashes!! I thought only boys had eyelashes like that! (Do you like the bedhead too?) He is one of my most favorite people!  This is my honey, my rock, my money-maker, the love of my life! (Yes, sappy. But after more than 15 years together I still like him!) This is the other "man" in my life.  This is Bear.   He is sweet and stubborn and very jealous when it comes to sharing me with T.   This is "my" girl (the middle child).  She is the only one who looks enough like me for it to be obvious that she's my kid. She is so sweet and full of generosity and love.  Did you see the letter she wrote me the other day? No?  Go here and see.   And last, but certainly not least.  Me.  A sweaty mess after running 5+ miles wearing my awesome Team In Training training T-shirt.  This is the face a happy runner.   (F
