The little engine that could…

shot the “last” shot
& decided it’s not
worked more on the book clicks
& decided I wanted 3 x 3
spent time with the straightener
& fashioned a waterfall do for the girl
got out the tools
& hacked some study aids
scoped out a mid century house
& planned my next pic
loaded a couple of collections
& had them printed for frame
worked hard for the money
& reaped the rewards
took steps towards a healthier me
& signed up for a challenge
thought a lot about magic
& about houses & ponies too
spent time with a lovely click mate
& she got lucky with the stackers
talked about heart, film craft
& what feeds the soul
bought a great pair of boots
& some shoes for the date
got caught in the rain
& got soaked to the skin
ate Japanese with the fam
& felt proud of the pharlap in my life

PS: Did you know I made a rule about the collections? I did! I made a 52 week rule & this is collection number 52. As my kids would say “I did a big achievement”. I’m mighty proud of my stickability.

I didn’t get good at it until about week 20 though so I think I’ll keep going.

In other news…

I posted about hashtags & geotags (& feet in fact) over at JustB. Interesting stuff. Go & have a read…more opinionated than the stuff I share here but hey – variety and all that. Also I’ve actually got quite a lot to say in the flesh & JustB feels kind of fleshy.
