P365 – Day 181 – closeup #4 – layout

I have a lot of scrapbook layouts that are in my ‘work in progress’ albums. (Yes, albums. I filled one up with unfinished layouts, so I needed to get another one.) A lot of the layouts are pretty much complete, other than needing a title or journalling. I’m not...

P365 – Day 180 – closeup #3 – ice

Well if yesterday was cold, today was freezing. I didn’t check the temperature outside when we left home, but a reasonable guess, based on the weather report, was about -2 degrees. This is the ice on the car windscreen. I like this one. It reminds me of the moon....

One of the suggestions for doing a 365/Photo a Day Project is to take photos of the little things that are part of your life that you don’t really pay much attention to. So here is the hand cream that I have on my desk at work. The skin...

P365 – Day 174 washing, washing and more washing

Once of the things I like least about winter is how much harder it is to get my washing done. I do most of my and Juniordwarf’s washing on Tuesdays when I’m home with Juniordwarf. Slabs is responsible for doing his own and occasionally Juniordwarf’s. Juniordwarf helps me. He...

P365 – Day 173 winter solstice [photo added]
