We’re going on vacation to a different country for the next two weeks. I’ll leave the destination a surprise, but I’d love to hear your guesses .Hint: It’s not in South America, but it can feel that way…

There will be plenty of pictures posted when I get back.

Toodles!

You may or may not have noticed, but I haven’t written on Words to Live by Mondays in a while. It’s not that there’s a lack of quotes that inspire me, but it got to the point where the same types of quotes were always coming to mind. I made the decision when I started this blog to only write when I really had something to share. I guess I started to feel a little boxed in by the format and would simply skip writing on Mondays to avoid the constraint.

So, I started thinking of replacing the Words to Live by with something else…like a post about race. Or, maybe incorporate a Wordless Wednesday with a picture like so many other blogs. But then I saw into the future and it goes like this: I eventually feel boxed in by assigning something specific to do/write about on a certain day.

In the end, I decided to start including pictures that I take and sometimes about which I don’t have much to say. I did this once with a picture of my little guy and for some reason I felt like I was cheating. Well, I’m over that now. I’m not designating a day of the week…I’m only committing to posting one of my pictures sometime during the course of the week. That’s reasonable, right?

This is a picture of our miniature foosball table. I was drawn to photograph it because of the contrast of all its bright colors. Enjoy!
