Project 365 – Day 140 Hide & Seek

Hide & Seek – a bit like the game the sun was playing.  Out one minute, lashing with rain and zero visibility the next!

Had a fun mini road trip today – collecting one SP and dropping another one off, with a stop for a sandwich and a cup of tea in the middle. Great company on the drive though – got to love putting the world to rights on the way up and down the motorway.

House back to normal now, toys everywhere and one very very tired SP finally sleeping in her own bed.  We told her not to get used to it though as road trip number 2 of the week starts tomorrow!
This road trip is a little longer so I will be digging out my notebook to make notes on the happenings as I won’t be posting any photos for a week or so.  I’m hoping to get my photographic mojo back, as I feel its a bit lacking over the last week or so. Maybe this is normal this far into a 365, I don’t know but it’s feeling like hard work.

I am however keeping my fingers crossed for some inspiring sunsets, and weird and wonderful photo subjects over the coming week.

See you soon……

Project 365 – Day 139 Queer as Folk

Actually not queer at all – just some entertainers at the Folk Festival in Warwick today.  Lots of dancers dressed up.  This lad caught my eye as he was merrily tapping away on his hat!

Lazy day today – housework followed by a late lunch of thai tapas, a walk round the festival and then a glass of vino in the sunshine.  Have you noticed something missing from the last few days?  The SP! The house is soooooo quiet, but luckily for us she comes home tomorrow.  Not only have we missed her loads but so has the cat – he’s been more or less camping out in her room!

 

Project 365 – Wedding

We spent the afternoon/evening at a friends wedding today – always interesting to be a non drinker when everyone around you is plastered! Luckily, the rain held off until the evening, although we got a tad wet watching the fireworks later on.

There were lots of disposable cameras on the tables but I thought I would use my own to take this one.

Only one more sleep before normality is restored!

 

365 Project – Day 137 Dinner

Popped to the pub for a quick after work drink………. this was taken with my iPhone

Project 365- Day 136 Time Flies

Literally grabbed this shot as I was on the way out the door last night.

It was a tough day today, after a bad nights sleep, emotionally tough, but all was well in the end and the day finished with a lovely thai meal out for me and hubby.

Roll on Monday 😉

Project 365 – Day 135 Light as a Feather

Different garden to take photos in today 😉

Evening sun, and a few stray feathers on the lawn, meant it was a fairly easy choice for the shot of the day.

Most of the day was spent in the car on the motorway so it was nice to be in the garden, g & t in hand, looking for the perfect photo opportunity.

Project 365 – Day 134 More Macro

Another day, another macro.  This little blighter was difficult to catch, although slower in the evening than they are during the day.

Not much else to say today – more deliveries to the shop of coasters!

Enjoy.

Project 365 – Day 133 Let’s Go Macro

Finally trying out my macro lens!

A busy day returning children’s belongings that were retrieved from our garden after Saturday. Then some quiet time with the SP.

And so ended day 133.

Project 365 – Day 132 The Morning After the Night Before

This was just one! There was another box just as full.  I quite like the lone Fruit Shoot bottle nestled in amongst the beer 😉

A few fragile heads and some unexpectedly wet garden furniture that hadn’t been put away – but no-one said it was going to rain did they?  I knew it was raining when I was greeted in the middle of the night by a very wet cat meowing at me. He looked quite pleased as it’s been so hot for him.

Project 365 – Day 131 Jump Part 2

And can’t he jump high!  Amazing what a few beers will do for your flexibility!

Even the slightly cloudier skies couldn’t dampen the appetite for a party.  Lots of paddling pool and water cannon fun for the little ones, fabulous food and a full beer fridge for the bigger ones 🙂

We were very considerate of our neighbours though and ended it respectably before midnight – not that it would have mattered as most of the neighbours were there!
