Lord can we talk a minute?
When You bless me
With little things
I cry inside.
Which is cool.
When You bless me,
And exceed my expectations,
I weep openly.
AND I WIND UP
LOOKING CRAZY LORD!
AGAIN!
Mascara runnin’
Eyes red and puffy…
Can you make me look
A little better
Next time you bless me??
I’m just sayin…
PLEASE BLESS ME,
By all means,
Just make me look good
When I receive it.
Hmmm? What’s that?
Uh huh…
Oh.
I see.
So…
if there’s nothing different
About me
Who would want to know
About You?
*pause*
Touché.

The pic:

Sitting, chillin, working out some nausea from migraine meds and this is what was in front of me.

Full.

I haven’t had a photo feeling like this in a while.

Shoot a roll, drop it off to get developed…

And impatiently wait.

Excited.

Like a mad scientist.

Get the negatives.

Sit at my desk quietly and

scan.

Ooooh look at the pretty pictures!

Again again!

THIS PIC:

You guessed it.

FILM.

Kodak.

Welcome home baby.

Wow wow wow.

So I think family life will start returning to normal.

Finally.

It’s been a while.

And I’ve been having issues with my shooting.

I want my clients happy.

But I don’t want to compromise

oh, lets say,

Me.

You pay for my creativity.

Not my adaptability.

Nuff said.

The Pic:

A client wanted pics of his daughter

for her birthday.

But she wanted to play.

I love this picture.

I think no matter how old we get

Sometimes we just wanna crawl between daddy’s legs

and hide.

Knew.

 

Flashing back is fun.

But can be dangerous if you don’t come back to the now

quick.

SUBJECT CHANGE:

I’ve been researching masterpiece paintings.

Which has been both informative

and incredibly inspiring.

Honestly…

*whispering*

I want to make art like that.

Polish.

Oh my goodness.

Ever do so much that at the end of the day you forgot what you did???

Man whoever said a stay at home mom’s job wasn’t a job, well…

Tomorrow hubs and I check out the new Droid in the morning.  I gotta admit that phone really fares more on the side of Casio or old TI calculator than 007.  We’re not trying to be secret agents though, right?

Uh hem…moving on…

We have friends that could POSSIBLY be moving here from Cali.  My hub’s best friend and his family.  My man is sooooo excited that even though he’s dog tired from law school he just about SKIPS thinking about it.

Ever see a fat man skip?  

**SOAP BOX ALERT**

Speaking of being round…I’m trying to lose weight because I’m a newly diagnosed diabetic, so I walk in the mall 5 days a week, 5 laps.  And at every lap I see the huge posters for Victoria Secrets, Banana Republic, AE and Abercrombie, etc.  Too many skinny girls selling sex.  Give a fat girl a chance  Just kidding.  I love you Lord.

Speaking of Abercrombie:  I walked by the Abercrombie store at the Natick Mall  a few months back and this guy was standing in front of the store HALF NEKIT.  Yeah I said it NEKIT.  Shirtless.  That was his J.O.B.  He GREETED people, with children walking by, ham and tan.

I

could

not

believe it.

OFF THE SOAP BOX.

BTW the pic is Sephora by OPI nail polish, color: Sample Sale.  

Like Christmas for your fingertips.

WWJPLL?

I wanted to shoot this for a long time. A very simple photograph of Jesus.

Now I’ve seen paintings but not a photographic representation, because a photograph can give reality to a seemingly impossible situation.

Jesus is this real for a lot of people.

What Would Jesus’ Picture Look Like????  

NOW: Today I return to the Tolles Stret Mission to take more pics of the youth ministry and get audio for the project.

So excited!!

My chance to give back using what God gave me. This is something I want to do over and over. I pray I do well.
