Day Dream Perfection

Photograph via Nikon D90


The more blogs that I read, the more I envision myself sitting in a quiet, small city cafe sipping on a cup of strong, warm coffee and typing away on my laptop.  Well the reality is that I wake up in my parents house in my pajamas, too "comfortable" to change out of them!  In the suburbs everything is quiet... no need to step into cafe to get away from the busy streets.  However, I do have a laptop, a delicious coffee maker, a country style kitchen table sitting in front of a bay window.  The window overlooks our backyard filled with blooming flowers - roses and peonies  of every shade, from white to pink to red to a deep luxurious purple.
It really is a little piece of heaven... especially since my dad is sitting across the table from me.... on his laptop & chatting away on the phone in his thick accent.... LOVE YOU DAD!
As I sit down to read a couple of blogs, while my coffee cup goes from full to empty, I remember there is a 20% off sale at Loehmann's - and I am off without having written a single word for my blog.  

Shock: I successfully photographed my space.  Why? Over the course of the last two weeks I realized that I am not a constant picture taker.  Since starting my blog I have had ample opportunities to photograph my outfits, here are some of the things that I missed out on photographing:
1. Wedding
2. A Night Out in NYC3.  The next day in NYC - everything fit into my purse!
4. Job interview
5. The delicious roasted chicken pieces that I made the other weekend
4. Night out to the bar with a couple of guys from work
5. Dinner & tiki bar with a friend
6. BBQ
7. Job Celebration dinner with my parents :)
8. My Cousin's graduation from Law School!

... as you can see, I have plenty of content, but that does not matter when I did not photograph any of it!!  Perhaps I will crop myself out of the photos that others took.

Not sure if you caught on there: I GOT A JOB! I GOT A JOB! I GOT A JOB!
