Photography Journal 2018 - (wks 44-47)


Week 44 - Spooky

After almost finishing a full year of a photo a week, this is only my second "old" picture. This was my halloween costume from last year. We did not dress up this year, and I didn't have a chance to find a fun spooky landscape. I'm not really into spooky, so I'm afraid I didn't try very hard. 


Week 45 - Motion

Time is never rushed or in a hurry,
And yet we go through life in a flurry,
Always' saying 'I'm going to be late',
As if it were your greatest fate.

Time has always been and will always be,
Not like your, or like me.
We go on and complain,
Every day is always the same,
Never enough time,
For my life is in the prime.
There's so much to get done,
And not much time for fun.

Time cannot be stored.
Time we can't afford.
Time is time,
And it won't decline,
To the things ahead.
Time has nothing to dread.


Week 46 - Remember

We remember our veterans and those who gave their youth, their lives, and their families, so I can read my Bible in my home, so I can read it to my children, so I can educate them in the way I deem best.


Week 47 - Thankful

I am super thankful that we get to try a real tree this year for Christmas. It's been a long time since I have had one, and never since being married! We all had so much fun picking out the perfect tree!!

There are only five weeks left!! Here are the topics if you want to join in the fun!
Gathering, Bokeh, Numbers, Winter, Joy/Hope/Peace

Here are the previous weeks journals in case you want to look back.

How to Make Your Apartment More Homey - Part 5

Welcome to part 5 of my mini series "How to Make Your Apartment More Homey". Once you get a grasp on the first four topics you've really got something going for you. These last two steps are definitely not the meat of the problem.  Today we will focus on - The Color Palette. A little bit of color theory wouldn't hurt anyone. I realize that we are alway feeling the need to try something new and be a little different. It's called fashion, and that's okay. Be different! Make a statement! It's good to try something new. But if it's ugly just say so, don't lie to save your pride. Your pride has already been painted all over that new yellow couch!  You can google a basic color wheel and the different ways to pair the colors or most people have an eye for what looks good together. It's usually a good thing to stick with the same hue (bold with bold, or pastels with pastels, and burnt colors with burnt colors) but even that isn't alwa...

2025 Reading Challenge

 Today Rural Simplicity is bringing you a Reading Challenge for the new year!  25 Books in 2025.      This is a very personalized list that came about when my favorite reading challenge people didn't put out a reading challenge for next year. I plopped myself down in front of my large TBR (to be read) stack and started making a list of categories.       I am going to walk you through my list in comparison to my TBR stack to give you an idea of where you could start. But like any good reading challenge you will nudge it this way and that to fit your needs and lifestyle. One thing I would not recommend is  fitting it to your likes.  One point of a reading challenge is to broaden your perspective and get you out of your comfort zone. One last point to address is that it's okay to not finish the challenge by December 31st. Again your goal is to read, not finish, or rush, or stress out. Just read and enjoy. Let it soak in slowly and cons...

Spring Cleaning Challenge Day 6 Psalm 51:10

Welcome to your first day of rest. Tomorrow is Sunday, a day that should be put aside to worship the Lord and to rest your body from physical activity. Each Sunday we will meditate on a verse that reflects having a clean heart. Because we all know that a spotless house doesn't make us truly happy. Only a clean heart can keep a smile on our faces. Psalm 51:10  Create in me a clean heart, O God,  and renew a right spirit within me.  What does a clean heart look like? Who judges wether the heart is clean or not? Who cares about your heart more than anyone else? Just like we have been pulling out our furniture this week looking for dust bunnies, take a moment to pull out the furniture in your life and look for "Me" bunnies. Search out your heart for selfish things you've tucked away, whether it be a secret, a personal pleasure, a blatant sin, or an old heartache.  When you've found them, take them all one by one and lay them out in a straight row in front of...
