What a great day! I photographed an 80 year old lady. Her son wanted a portrait of her in their long time home, by the window in an old fashion chair. I couldn’t help day dreaming when my son might do the same. Seeing her smile into the camera brought forth emotions and warm fuzzy feelings; I envisioned her as a loving mom, going through all the motions we've all done raising children. The cycle of life.
Post “hypnotic-photo-shoot” came successful errand running to the bank, Home Depot, Costco, gas station...then to SWIM! I know my lap times & hit the 5:00 open session. As the sun set around me, I finished my 2 mile workout.
Last stop on the way home was the grocery store. I was hungry & my lane-sharing-swimmer had just informed me that sugar and salt were indeed good for joints. That being true (until I researched it more) I opened a bag of Buffalo Blue chips & feasted on some salty goodness of Kettle Chips. Then hitting the produce isle, I munched on some fresh blueberries and finally a beautiful cupcake from the Bakery! I had my appetizers and dessert, so protein and salad would balance out my evening meal when I got home. I love grazing through the grocery store. I consider it my duty to amuse the checkout employees and baggers, who laugh at the 3 things I’ve opened and consumed. Hey, laugh at me or with me, just laugh.
Working, swimming, feeling strong, enjoying great salty and sweet, editing photos, writing, ahhhh, the perfect day.
