I worked six days last week but, in exchange, I have today, Friday, off. I will be heading back to my mother's house, which is about a three-hour drive from my apartment. She doesn't have the Internet, so I will be without any form of social media for a few days. This, honestly, does not bother me. I am concerned, though, that I'll receive pertinent, work-related emails that I cannot answer until Monday. All the same, I am looking forward to a relaxing, enjoyable weekend at home with my
cat mom. In addition to writing a couple of book reviews, I need to examine a bunch of newspapers for design and wire content. I also plan on making a couple decorative vases (out of tin and aluminum cans, have you). And, of course, there will be
Cupcake Wars.
To alleviate my stress, I've been listening to a lot of music lately. At work, I thrust an earphone into each ear and hurriedly try to compose pages as efficiently as I can before the clock strikes midnight, one, two. At the bottom of this post, you'll find a playlist to what I've been listening to most recently (Florence and the Machine, Lykke Li, Of Monsters and Men and the hypnotizing Brandon Flowers).
But before I leave, here be some more photos of Boone.














these are BREATHTAKING!!<3

ReplyDeleteEnjoy your technology free weekend! It's nice to be able to step away from all that noise!
ReplyDeleteLovely pictures! Those are the kind of things I would photograph too! Thanks for visiting my blog!

ReplyDeleteI love your pictures! You always find such beauty in simple things.
ReplyDeleteOh man, you're photography is something to look forward to for sure! Wonderful eye my friend! The grain elevators remind of Alberta so much.
ReplyDeleteAs for the natrual product issue.. I've heard pro-active has done so many wonders, but dries the skin out so much that it become addicted to the product. It's a catch 22 for sure. I think by finding out your skin type (I was diagnosed with super-dry skin, when I actually thought it was oily), while considering diet and stress levels. Unfortunately I think genetics plays a role, but there's a lot of holistic medicine that believes skin problems can be internal issues manifesting physically. At the end of the day really, just do what you need to in order to be happy and at peace with yourself. Make-up for me is my weakness, and until they can make an amazing all-natural mascara that works as amazing as covergirl's lash blast.. I'm not quitting it. lol
Have a great weekend lady! <3
Beautiful photos and that playlist is brilliant. I now have some new bands to check out thanks for sharing.
