new slang.

Ha! I'd like to say that this blog is the beginning of at least one a week, but, its always easier said than done with me right now. so for today, it's happening. Its been a foggy week or two for me. Nothing too terrible, just the usual sad moments of missing Alyssa, and feeling disconnected in a way to alot that's around me. I'm missing friends. Andrea.....why did you move so far away? I could really go for a night at Macaroni Grill talking rubbish and eating just as much of it as we could talk. Two of my photog friends now live near one another and oh how lucky are they. I am thankful for the friends who I do have around me. Cynthia, lunch was fun! I love how we both spent our time giving each other lipstick checks. We are a mess. Somethings gotta give. Im feelin it. Yah, not in a Blink182 kind of way. The other day I told Lucas that Im taking him to church this week and he said, "Ohhh, I have to get a suitcase!!" Either he thinks that it is really far away....or that we have alot of "baggage" he's probably right.....I need a suitcase. I'm completely open and ready to feast on some worship. Nicos Grandma Helen passed away yesterday. What a great woman she was. I couldn't help but imagine Alyssa running to meet her, it made me smile.

 This week in a few photos.

 

October weekend.

I did something that I haven't done practically since I got my iphone which has been ages..and that was to take my camera out of its bag and just set it on my desk and try using it on my own family and life. I was looking thru my Flickr account and forgot how often I used to take just every day pictures of my own family, I need to get back into that ritual, less iPhone, more real. I guess if I wanted to be even more "real" I would get a film camera, but hey, baby steps. Here is a tiny bit of my weekend, actually a very tiny bit.

 

This would be Corbin, he's very funny about me taking pictures of him and I tried sneaking some of him while he was in my room playing the guitar and he caught me so he did this. Yah. nice. Thankyou Corbin.

   

 me. looking a little not so joyous. maybe sometimes I dont want to look joyous?

 

but then its ok because shortly after that I felt very joyous laying next to my little Lukie.
