A note on project 365

Two intrepid readers have contacted me already to ask what happened to yesterday’s Project 365 post.
I figured that since they asked, some of you guys might want to know the scoop as well.

Rest assured I have yet to fall off the project bandwagon, I’ve simply decided to post my photos in a weekly roundup. I felt that having all the random single photo posts was kinda weird.

Anyway, now that we’ve solved that mystery, tell me, are any of you participating in Project 365 as well?


Storm coming in.

My batteries in my camera are still dead but Project 365 marches on with a borrowed camera from my husband.


playing with perspective

I accidentally left my camera turned on in my bag and let the batteries run flat. Whoops!
First major obstacle to completing Project 365 has arrived! No fear though, iPhone to the rescue.
It’s funny though, after only a week or so of dedicated photo efforts, I’m already unhappy with the insufficient sharpness of my formerly beloved iPhone camera. How quickly things change.


taking my fair share.

Perhaps it’s cheating to use a photo for project 365 that I didn’t actually take, but dammit, I wanted to be in this one.
What with the uproar in my recent life over our mango-stealing landlord, I made it my business to get some of those mangoes for the consumption of our little household.
Well actually, it was the husband who duct-taped the broom to a strip of timber we had leftover from a recent project, but it was a collaborative effort to get the mangoes from the top of the tree, mostly involving me running around like a maniac under the tree trying to catch falling fruit and failing miserably.

Today was a very frustrating day in the administrative sense, so in reward to myself for dealing with a bunch of tiresome international banking beeswax, I declare a photo OF me can replace a photo taken BY me.

In other news: LOOK AT THE SIZE OF THOSE PUPPIES!


project 365: number 9


project 365: no really.

In Australia, standard laundry practice is to hang your laundry out to dry.

I was talking to an Australian friend about NYC winter and she asked me “If it’s that cold out, doesn’t your clothing freeze on the line?”

It’s not just for the poor or the eco-warriors, it’s something everybody does. Me, you, your sister-in-law, and the weird dudes at work. Having a dryer is viewed as a total extravagance.
