june 8 day 44 Brazilian bar - a good time was had by all
we had a really good time - stayed out late dancing. i tried to samba and everyone was so nice about the fact that I really don't know how to samba - as the night wore on really i just danced more how i felt rather than trying to do the right steps. hubby danced with me - which alwasy makes me happy.
june 7 day 43 church storm DSC_0616
we went to get some fish to grill and the clouds were so fabulous. my sweetie is wonderful about making a detour for me if i see a photo I want to take. there is something really powerful to me about clouds and a cross.
june 6 day 42 blue side DSC_0602 copy
i've enjoyed having afternoons free to plant and just relax and spend time with my sweetie since starting days this week. such a quality of life improvement like you wouldn't believe.
june 5 day 41 budhist center art class red door DSC_0598
went to a drawing class with my friend maria. it was figure drawing - i am so unexperienced yet i was amazed how in just the time of one class my drawings improved. maybe with practice there is hope for me i think i may try drawing class again.
june 4 day 40 heart boxDSC_0596
i waitied until the last possible moment ot take a picture -there were other opportunities but for shame i did not take my camera - sometimes i just need to engage in life without the camera which tends to serve as a bit of a buffer - though also lends a unique perspective depending on the situation. i hope i will learn about myself by what i am and am not willing to photograph. this is a set of celtic rings which hubby and i purchased thinking our original wedding bands (cheap silver i believe $11 for the set) would eventually break - but they ahve neither broken nor tarnished - so the back up set remains in this heart.

Saturday May 26, 2007 (Day 32) Contrary llamma
Hubby wants to have llamma's I'm partial to alpaca's but really, I just hope some day a petting zoo fits into our lifestyle. These fiber artists who own llaamas were at the farmer's market today with 3 of thier llammas -they drew a crowd of interested bystanders - mostly kids -and us. We can be kids at heart sometimes I suppose......
I was reading an article in concieve and it was talking about nurturing your relationship during infertility treatment - it said some couples go a whole day without touching once. I can not imagine this in our house. My husband and I hold hands when we walk - we sit close when we can. That sounds like a sad day to go 24 hours without touching the person you love. I guess the point was intimacy outside of TTC - but to me that is a given - how would you make it through such a difficult struggle without the comfort and nurturing of your partner/spouse? I am grateful that is at lesat one thing I do not have to work at in my life - nurturing intimacy with my partner. Of course I would work at it if necessary - I'm just grateful I don't have to.

Friday May 25 (day 31) Plaza Tower behind water
one of the photo groups had an assignment of posting a photo of a belltower or clocktower - so here is mine - the plaza belltower behind the fountain spray.
I had a long day friday - lately my hospital days have been longer and longer - I used to get off at 1 on fridays (I work a long day monday so i can do this)- but this week it wasn't until after 5:30. It was nice to relax and take a short walk with my sweet after. I think the playfullness of the water spray here is a good image for a friday night.

Thursday, May 24 (Day 30)whatever sky shot
this is one of those shots taken because I've commited to take a photo every day for a year -and some days there is nothing photo worthy across my path. Some people would make a photo where there was none - but while I find the manufactured sceenes that others shoot intriguing it is just not my style. so...i guess we can expect more weather photos in the coming year at least until I can get a good image stabilization zoom macro lense to look at things from anther perspective

Daily Examen - things to consider each day
1. Express Gratitude
2. Petition for light (see self & ohters in God's eyes, ask to see the role only I can play)
3. Review the day: look at day's actions, omissions, thoughts & desires what does this tell me aobut myself in relation to self, others, God, the world
4. Lift out something & ask for help
5. look ahead - how do I want to carry on (today - the rest of my life what / who do I want to be master of my life? what are my core values? )
