I missed the first half of the week. I was busy wrapping up a couple of projects before some family came in town for the weekend.
I managed to get a few projects done around the condo this weekend. I finally put up some temporary blinds. Not only do they look better than my bedsheets, but now I can put clean bedsheets on my bed since they are no longer hanging on my windows. Win-win!
I’m most excited about the deck furniture I bought. I’m so ready for warmer weather so I can sit outside. I’ve never had outdoor space before and now I have space large enough for a sectional and some plants. I’m looking forward to putting this space together over the next few weeks.
Thursday, April 25, 2019 (day 115/365). Laundry day with Rose.
Friday, April 26, 2019 (day 116/365). I’ve been seeing butterflies everywhere the past couple of weeks.
Saturday, April 27, 2019 (day 117/365).
Sunday, April 28, 2019 (day 118/365). Sneak peak of the color scheme for my deck. How great is that flamingo pillow??!
I finally had some free time to do some research this week on post-production techniques. I haven’t perfected my process yet, but I found a few tips to make it a more organized and efficient process.
Monday, April 15, 2019 (day 105/365). I was trying to do dishes, but Elliot decided he’d park his butt on my drying mat.
Tuesday, April 16, 2019 (day 106/365).
Wednesday, April 17, 2019 (day 107/365). This is my favorite picture this week. Her face is so cute it makes my heart hurt. Thursday, April 18, 2019 (day 108/365). Rose likes to make it as difficult as possible for me to leave in mornings. This particular morning, she made herself comfortable on my bag.
Friday, April 19, 2019 (day 109/365). View from the 66th floor of the Sears Tower.
Saturday, April 20, 2019 (day 110/360). I still haven’t gotten around to getting window treatments, so I hung a bed sheet over my bedroom window. I feel like I’m in my college apartment. Sunday, April 21 (day 111/365). It was so warm out today that the ice cream vendors were out in full force.
I’m keeping it short and sweet this week since I have quite a few photos to weed through and edit from a birthday party I attended last week.
Monday, April 1, 2019 (day 91/365).Tuesday, April 2, 2019 (day 92/365). I don’t know what it is about Elliot, but every picture I take of him is out of focus.
Wednesday, April 3, 2019 (day 93/365).
Thursday, April 4, 2019 (day 94/365).
Friday, April 5, 2019 (day 95/365). This is my home office and my office assistant.
Saturday, April 6, 2019 (day 96/365). I was reading up on how to photograph interiors and one of the tips was to shoot on your knees. I’m not sure if I like the angle or not.
Sunday, April 7, 2019 (day 97/365). I felt like a total stalker taking this picture. It was a rainy day so rather go out in the rain, I sat on my couch and took pictures of people as they walked by. I wonder if anyone noticed….

About a month ago, a group of us got together for a Sunday Funday to celebrate Randy’s birthday. It took me ages to get this post together. For a time I thought that Randy would have another birthday before I finished editing the photos from this year’s birthday celebration. I took way more photos than I thought I did and since I don’t have a great work flow process yet, I was feeling a little overwhelmed.
It was fun looking through the pictures to pick a few to share. It was a boozy day, but a great reminder that despite all of us being in our 40’s we can still have a proper Sunday Funday.

I love this picture of Randy. It’s just so him! He wore that crown allllll day.
This queen wanted all of Boystown to know that he travels with an entourage.
Randy made Rachel (on the end) change jackets with him. He’s wearing her sequins and she’s wearing his leather. The change works for both of them!
I was saddled with a head cold last week. How can a person simultaneously have a stuffy and runny nose? The sinus pressure had my eyes watering like I had just watched a Nicholas Sparks’ movie and my nose was so raw that I took to just shoving tissues up there rather than suffer the agony of having rub it.
Just as I was finally starting to feel better, I woke up on Saturday morning to Rose stumbling around. She had either gotten into the wine or had another ear infection. I spent the afternoon at the vet, who assured me that Rose was not drunk and probably had an ear infection. She sent us home with ear drops and anti-nausea pills. Both are super fun to give a cat who does not want either medicine.
Monday, March 25, 2019 (day 84/365): Green tea with lemon. The only thing I drank all day in an effort to stay hydrated and ward off the shivers.
Wednesday, March 27, 2019 (day 86/365): Grocery store sushi. I figured now would be as good as time as any to try sushi from the grocery store. I already feel like crap, so how much worse could this make me feel?
Thursday, March 28, 2019 (day 87/365): I love a moody interior. I’ve had to sleep practically sitting up this week, so the moodiness of this picture matches my general mood this week.
I’m looking forward to some spring like weather in Chicago this week and hopefully, a healthy household!
