One Flower Photo, One Moment

One Flower into Many Photo’s

Taking so many photo’s, I wanted to challenge myself with one flower and just started taking photos. In total, I took 35 photos. This is an early bloom from our April.. I use a point and shot camera now, have the other kind but….. My “Center Pink” Photos.

Not a lot of computer work was done on each photo. I’m not a huge fan of spending time with photoshop ! My dream is to have someone sitting next to me and just telling them what I want….someday??

The biggest part of going over these photos was the cleaning off of all the pollen. Center Pink in Black and White too !

And the “Center Pink” #1. My favorite.

October Holiday To Do List

It’s Time to Make a Plan

Had a question about Deep Cleaning. It’s doing the big stuff. Husband helped me…we pulled the living room rug 13′ x 20′ wool rug out onto plastic in the drive-way. We powered washing it, we went over it and over it to get the water out…Pulled the plastic and rug into the garage EVERY night for four nights. It’s finally dry…probably will not do that again. But, it’s deep cleaned and perfect.
Deep cleaning is to get the corners clean so when needed, you dust, vacuum and ready to go.
It’s true many hands make light work, other’s live in the house? Pick a day, afternoon, weekend and everyone helps, it’s everyone’s holiday, not just yours. Make a plan. NO signing up for anything, Click on link and GET !

Here is my October To Do List

The idea of no drama is what my slow and steady has become these past few years. Nothing makes me happier than a list so I’m loving my Holiday To Do List here.
