i get overwhelmed really easily.
this morning i was encouraged by the encouragement from my new favorite book the artists way to write a list of ten tiny changes you'd like to make, and then to simply do just one of them today.  the one i chose to do from my list was to make pumpkin pancakes.  so i did.  even though making the normal granola and berries would be easier.  but i created a few dishes dirty and searched for the syrup in the fridge in the name of doing something for myself.  not in a selfish way................. in a nourishing way.

another on my list was to update my blog, which seemed daunting today for some reason, so here is what first came to mind to show you :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

and now all of a sudden i feel like i'm conquered the world in a good way,
and all i did was eat pancakes and post two polaroids on my blog and told you about it.
that was sure the most monumentally simple thing ever.


and maybe you could just make a list of one tiny change.
its kind of fun.

it will be up until the end of august------ go take a look if you didnt get a chance to go on friday.  i loved being able to explore the stories of hundreds of different moments------ each had its own story, lots of them made me laugh, and it was neat to discover the connections that are created by simply placing images in a grid.  one of my favorite discoveries was a row of 3 cats.  i didnt take a picture of it because i was too enthralled. 

:)
night!

Hi Shannon, love the birds - this one is from your calling card, right? I have always liked it's shape. Saw a mother deer with twin fawns, another deer and a stupid wild turkey standing on the road. I think that Jason did the birds at the top (I think your Mom told me that!)
