Feb Photo Fun

I am still working on the February Photo Challenge.  I have some posts in the works about other activities from this week, so until I get my butt in gear (and my mind!) you will be entertained with #febphotoaday only!

Day 16: Something New
I recently swapped books with fellow blogger Suz. I was so excited that my box arrived! 
Hurray for new books! This also falls within the guidelines of my 12 in 2012 book challenge.


Day 17: Time
I spent most of this day driving to the Bay Area to see friends and run the Bay Breeze


Day 18: Drinks
Post race wind down beverage


Day 19: Something I Hate to Do
Laundry.
 

Day 20: Handwriting
My planner.
 

 Day 21: A Fave Photo of Myself
Bottling beer with the broski. 
This one is a Stout. My favorite!
Obviously.
 

Day 22: Where I Work
 

Day 23: My Shoes
Same shoes, different closet.
 

Day 24: Inside My Bathroom Cabinet
Actually, this is my roommate's cabinet. She likes to have fresh smelling armpits.
My cabinet is a toiletry bag.
 

Day 25: Green
Running in Oakland yesterday.
You can't quite see it, but that glow in the distance is San Francisco. 
It was a gorgeous day!


In a few minutes I am heading to San Francisco for an Oscar party with friends. I have no idea what movies are nominated, but it will be fun to see everyone anyway! Also, my friends are on a fast; no dairy, booze, sugar, sodium, bread or caffeine (as well as a long list of other things), so it should be an interesting (and grumpy?) party!  What do you think? Should I bring a huge bottle of wine and a cheese platter?

How was your week? Did you do anything fun this weekend? Are you going to any Oscar parties?

Shoes and Taxes

Welcome folks...to another edition of what I did last week: in pictures. The #febphotoaday is still going on and I have so far not missed a day! Hurray! To see what it's all about, you can head over to Fat Mumslim's page and check it out. 

Day 11: Makes me Happy
Nordstrom.com -- Via Spiga page


Day 12: Inside my Closet
Flats: Anne Klein
Flip Flops: Reef
Boots: MIA

Day 13: Blue
Camelback Nalgene -- it goes with me everywhere

Day 14: Heart
I saw this on my run the other day. 
Perfect timing. 


Day 15: Phone
Stickers for planner.
Notice the "birthday" ones are all gone (the empty row).
(Notice the hair appt ones are all still there.)

Besides the Feb Photo, this week was spend doing responsible, boring things. Like...

Taxes

Going to the DMV

Cursing at my computer, as it decided to shut down and then the Microsoft Office Suite loses half the things I worked on over the last week. 
You can see my face in the screen.
It doesn't look happy.

It snowed this week. 
But it melted off pretty fast. 
The running trail. 

A shady section of the trail. 


How was your week? Do you try to cram all the boring, responsible things into one day or do you space them out throughout the week/month?

Half Time Recap

Another week, another photo here and there, and February is almost over. Woo Hoo.

That means the #febphotoaday is well underway.  And it's time for another recap post.

Day 4: Stranger
Have you ever seen anything stranger than this? Mouser and Hillary. 
He looks pissed off. 
Maybe it's because he is a Republican.


Day 5: 10 am
We took a drive last Sunday to do a little four wheelin', hiking and photo taking. 


Day 6: Dinner
Have you ever seen a bag of carrots this big?

Day 7: Buttons
I got lazy this day.


Day 8: Sun
Ironically enough, this day WAS sunny so we sat out on the front porch, soaking it in! 


Day 9: Front Door
Mine has a window and the light was shining in, so I covered it with a shopping bag and a couple of magazine pages. Classy, I know.


Day 10: Self Portrait
Going running. It was raining, so I added the rain effect. 


That's not all I did this week! 

I also...

Made banana nut bread. 
Ate a piece before taking this photo. 


Took photos of mountains and bridges and rivers, oh my. 



Went running.  
And then found it again three days later.


Went bowling. 
Bowled FOUR strikes in a row. 
And then bowled REALLY crappy the rest of the time, which is par for the course. 
I usually barely break 100.


The idea for this weekly photo post came from Kim. I am not trying to steal it.

What did you do this week? Are you a good bowler? What would you do if you had a huge bag of carrots?

All's Quiet on the Western Front

This week has been a quiet one. I am still working on sorting photos and files and trying to make sure I have everything backed up and categorized. It's not very exciting to talk about, but it is fun to go through and look at some of the photos from the last several years.

I also decided just for fun to do Fat Mumslim's February instagram photo challenge. Except since I don't have cell service, and therefore don't have internet on my phone, I can't do the Instagram part of it. So I am just taking the photos and I may post a few of them here...or I may not. I do have the first few days. Also, since I am not using Instagram, I am doing editing with pixlr, which has a lot of fun borders, textures and colors. I don't usually edit my photos at all. I kind of like the way they look without it. I kind of take photos with the idea that I want it right so I don't have to edit it. But with these, they will be edited to the max. I am having fun experimenting with all the different choices.

So grab a beer (inspired by Kim) and check out what I've been doing!

First, the Feb Photo Challenge. You can find the entire list HERE

 Day One: My View

Day Two: Words

Day Three: Hands

_________________________________________________________________

"Mexican Fiesta Monday" or "Trying to eat foods of all colors"


I ran that race. They gave us an interesting medal.


I experimented with my Macro extension tubes
I still don't really know what I am doing. 
Help. 



Remember Papa P? Yep, he's still around. 
And now he is a victim of my macro extension tubes. Wooohhahahaa.

 I went on a really nice walk with the ladies. 
A just got her bangs cut for the first time. So cute!


The snow melted, so I am back on the trails again! 
This week it has been really hard to get motivated for running!
I don't know why. The weather couldn't be more perfect. 



Since today is also the Superbowl, let me leave you with this interesting calorie cost comparison. You can find the entire list HERE.

- Blimpie's Super Stacked Blimpie Best = 313 Mins of Chanting, Pointing, Waving a Foam-Hand

- Three Pigs in a Blanket = Playing Catch With a Football for 68 Minutes (NONSTOP)

- Six Bottles of Budweiser = Doing "the Wave" 4,280 Times 


Eat smart everyone! Or else you will be doing the wave a LOT of times! 

What is your go-to Superbowl snack food? Are you doing any challenges in February?
