2010

I am trying for 365 pictures of the year 2010. It's hard - next year: 52 pictures - one for each WEEK of the year! My life is too "bland" to take a picture every day of something worthwhile!

Pictures 61 -67

Tuesday, March 2nd - This week I ended up staying in almost every day. So the pictures had to be of what I was seeing every day, which happened to be the stuff in our apartment. These are two dolls I bought at craft sales (Jodi and I try to go every fall). The tall one is SuzyQ and the smaller one is Molly. Don't know why I named them, I just did.
Wednesday, March 3rd - This is a candle holder that I either bought myself from PartyLite or Jason and Sandra bought it for me. I have another "American" one, so I get confused sometimes as to which one came from whom. I like it because it reminds me of my heritage.
Thursday, March 4th - This is the teapot and cream and sugar set that I got after Dale's grandmal Lofgren passed away. Aunt Louise took me over to Grandma's little house she had been living in when we were there visiting and told me to choose something. Grandma loved us to drop in when we lived in Strasbourg and she usually served tea out of this set.
Friday, March 5th - My one day "out". Dale and I went for supper and then over to Jen and Craig's to measure and see how a dishwasher would fit and what it would take to put a new countertop on, etc. Here are Dale and Jen discussing some items.
Saturday, March 6th - This is the little elephant Jen and Craig brought back from Africa and it is sitting on the shelf that our friend, Larry Johnson, made for me way back when we lived in Humboldt. I cherish both items.
Sunday, March 7th - I found this plaque at a craft show and had to get it, as there isn't usually a lot of stuff that say "Nana and Papa" on it. Although I think it is getting to be more of a trend now. I like it. At the bottom it says, "Grandkids always welcome; parents by appointment"!
Monday, March 8th - These sconces (I have 2) hang in my living room. They were a Christmas present and I think they are beautiful and elegant and glow so pretty when the candles are burning. Well, that's pretty much it for my "indoors" week. I'm hoping I will be able to get out more this week - maybe if I can get this "KID" off my shoulders so its weight doesn't weigh me down!

Okay, another phrase I don't understand. "KID" off your shoulders??? What????

That's what I call it when I am so exhausted I feel like I have someone sitting on my shoulders and can hardly carry them around. Get it? Dad and I just shortened to "kid on my shoulders".
