Right Now

March 26, 2015 By Carole

Here’s what’s going on in my world, right here, right now.

bunny and tulip pot

Remembering: What a fun time we had at the wedding last weekend. I am very fortunate to have such a great group of friends.

Blowing: my nose. I’m getting better, though.

Reading: The Martian by Andy Weir. I’m not sure what I think of it yet, though.

Celebrating: Finishing up 2 big photography jobs. It’s always great when the photos are processed and delivered.

Watching: House of Cards. Finally!

Listening: to anything and everything on our Sonos speakers. Best purchase we have made in a long time. Yes, even better than the damn snow blower.

Knitting: Socks. And nothing else. I need to cast on something fun.

Planning: Easter dinner. Ham, potatoes, carrots . . . what else?

Learning: new skills at work in the financial management part of my job. Blerrgggh.

Wondering: When the snow will be gone.

Seeking: Snow Drops. If I find them there will be pictures.

Contemplating: starting a Facebook page for my photography business. I think it’s time.

Anticipating: Mexico. 23 days!

    I’m about halfway through The Martian. I have an opinion, but I’ll see how I feel when I’m done. I’ll be interested in hearing what you think.

    I’m pretty sure you were kidding about liking those speakers better than your snow blower. At least around here those would be the sort of words that would tempt the snow powers to shower us with more white stuff. Just offering a few words of experience.

    I have been wanting to check out House of Cards. I heard it was really good. I agree – a FB page for your photo biz is a great idea.

    You totally should set up a facebook page for your photography. 🙂

    We’re having lamb. This will be the first Easter our daughter will share with us, since she was away at college for 4 Easters. She wants to make dessert and is lobbying for carrot cake.

    I’ll be interested to hear what you think of the Martian; it’s certainly not everyone’s favorite! hope you’re 100% back to yourself now – because Mexico is only what, 18 days?!

The final @aliedwards Pieces of Us prompt was refl The final @aliedwards Pieces of Us prompt was reflection. Here’s current me reflected in the frame of a picture of Dale and I from our honeymoon 24 years ago. I’ve always loved this photo of us, it captured our joy so perfectly. And I’m still filled with joy every time I look at it. #aepiecesofus #reflection #piecesofme

Today’s @aliedwards Pieces of Us prompt is Face Today’s @aliedwards Pieces of Us prompt is Face Forward. If there’s anything I’ve learned in my 55 years, it’s that facing forward is the best way to live. All the things in life, good or bad, can be resolved this way, our problems only multiple if we try to skirt around them. True satisfaction comes from looking life right in the eye, doing your best, and finding the joy. #aepiecesofus #thisismyface #faceforward
These hands. They are 55 years old and they show t These hands. They are 55 years old and they show the wear and tear of those years. The washing and moisturizing, the attempts to hold the approach of aging at bay. They’ve held and comforted so many loved ones, they’ve changed diapers and checked out books at the library, they’ve typed countless words, they’ve cooked and cleaned and done everything I’ve expected and I appreciate every bump and age spot and ... they are mine. #aepiecesofus #piecesofme #myhandstellmystory
