July 29 - Last thing you bought

Bought the last two containers on the shelf. We'll see how it works on two
of the four pine stumps we have. Aren't I an exciting shopper? Heh.

July 28 - Cup

My favorite coffee mug, handmade by a friend who has her own pottery
shop. Oh, and who also is blind. I love her work!

July 27 - On the road

On the way to work earlier today ... was trying to work in a Kerouac idea or
a Willie Nelson reference, but I think the fact that I was actually on the road
and headed to work was a pretty big accomplishment this morning!

July 26 - Sunshine

Didn't even look at the preview screen. Not a bad composition, if I do say so myself!

July 24 - A stranger

I hated taking someone's picture who a) I didn't know and b) didn't know I
was taking it. I could have asked, but I'm too shy. And it was raining, obviously.
The stranger part about this photo is that immediately after I took it, I watched
a scared dog wriggle out of a partly opened car window parked near me.
I went into the store to report it; the manager made what was surely the strangest
announcement he'll make all day. We helped the woman bag her groceries and
then she went out to find her panicked pup. She said he was afraid of everything.
Including rain.

July 23 - Mirror

Trying to take a photo of a mirror without being in the photo is a little, um, awkward.

July 22 - Upside down

My yarn closet is so messy this could almost be a right-side up shot! Need. To. Purge.

July 21 - 9:00

Was in the garden at 9 a.m., picking today's ripe tomatoes.
Enough here for another batch of salsa!

July 20 - Eyes

A picture of a digital picture, thus the moire. But I kinda like it anyway.

July 17 - Your addiction

Both of you know my for-real for-real addiction is alcohol. But I think after
21 years of abstinence I can get away with posting a photo of the current
compulsive activity. The other option was solitaire. I will say drinking alcohol
was a more exciting pastime than playing silly games on a handheld device.

July 16 - Sign

Couldn't get out and about today, so you get yet another view of the
"welcome" sign on the wall opposite my front door.

July 15 - Finger

Weird prompt today. Since I'm the only one here (except for the dog, who
doesn't really have fingers), I had to put the phone on its easel, set it for a
front-facing shot and to take multiple photos and then pick the best one.
Not my best effort, but it's done. That's the trouble with photo-a-day projects.
Sometimes you just shoot for completion, not for anything worthy.

July 13 - Open

The storm knocked one branch full of buds off the hibiscus plant, but there
are four more, and two of them have blooms opening up. The hibiscus might
be my most favorite plant in the landscape garden. Lots of bang for the bucks.

Day Last

 Mike finished his chemo yesterday. The cumulative effects of four rounds beginning in early July are making him pretty uncomfortable, and t...
