august mosaic

My creation

YAY I'M DONE!!!

august 31: jam!

IMG_1582

I made strawberry freezer jam! It's so good.

august 30: carnation

IMG_1579

Another week of flowers. I need to find a new flower source so I can keep this up in 2009.

august 29: hmmm

IMG_1573

I have no idea what this is or where I was when I took the pic. *shrug*

august 28: gadget

IMG_1571

I will be pretty impressed if anyone can correctly identify this thingy. I found it in my desk drawer.

august 27: tough

IMG_1562

Apparently Zoe had a rough day, she’s practically banging her head against the coffee table.

IMG_1566

(P.S. Yes, actually, I *do* vacuum, but I can totally understand why you don't believe me.)

august 26: height

IMG_1549

So glad this isn’t my job! Yikes. Spotted this guy hanging from the elevated subway tracks while taking Zoe to the vet this morning.

august 25: patchwork

IMG_1547

Our landlords are having some of the floors redone. Look at the different layers hiding underneath the carpet!

august 24: bruise

IMG_1544

OUCH. I slipped climbing down a stepladder today and whacked my knee pretty hard. This bruise is just getting more and more colorful.

august 23: fuschia

IMG_1533

More dark pink flowers this week! These didn’t last very well though. Oh well.

august 22: no

IMG_1529

But no what, exactly? No zombies walking dogs? No dogs sitting? Your guess is as good as mine.

august 21: RIP

IMG_1527

Found out today that LeRoi Moore passed away. Very sad.

august 20: grocery

IMG_1521

Nice graffiti mural.

august 19: smiles

IMG_1514

IMG_1518

Uber-creepy two-fer.

august 18: pillow

IMG_1510

These throw pillows live on our bed. I just love swirly patterns, I can’t help myself.

august 17: flowers

IMG_1506

My mother-in-law made this weekend bag for me as a birthday gift. So pretty!

august 16: stack

IMG_1501

I had fun wrapping this baby shower gift for my friends.

august 15: reflections

IMG_1499

Went out for dinner with friends after work, then met Sean for a drink. Too bad I didn’t frame this well enough to get both reflections of the lamp in the shot. Oh well.

august 14: pose

IMG_1491

I made Zoe pose for another one. Poor dog. The paparazzi just mob her.

august 13: trompe

IMG_1489

I love quirky little details like this.

august 12: reflection

IMG_1487

My train home got delayed, but at least I got a cool shot out of it, this reflection of the Statue of Liberty and a church steeple floating over Brooklyn.

august 11: puff

IMG_1477

Weeds can be pretty too! This one sprouted behind a bench out in front of the house and must be 3 feet tall.

august 10: slowly

IMG_1473

My new perfume, Ed Hardy by Christian Audigier. I adored the packaging, even before I sniffed the scent. Turns out, the scent is awesome too. So yay!

august 9: curtains

IMG_1465

New curtains in the living room. I think I have managed to photograph all my recent Ikea purchases now.

august 8: hello?

IMG_1461

Street art. Think she’s ordering a pizza?

august 7: sour

IMG_1456

Sean’s dad likes sour candy, so I decided we should keep some around. These are yummy.

august 6: jar

IMG_1448

Zoe's treat jar.

august 5: lonely

IMG_1434

This little chair looks so lonely sitting here by itself.

august 4: black-eyed

IMG_1428

Sean’s parents brought us these black-eyed susans. So pretty.

august 3: setting

IMG_1427

Sean’s parents came over for dinner so I set the table nicely. A couple more pics, just to prove it:

IMG_1426

IMG_1424

august 2: daisy

IMG_1419

This week’s flowers.

august 1: rose 3

IMG_1410

The last in my series of photos of these poor roses. They are like parchment at this point.

i take it back

soooooo, the new website that i mentioned below? just didn't work out the way i wanted it to. it loads SUPER SLOWLY (if at all), and i can't add it to my google reader. so i'm coming back to blogger! i plan to add posts for my daily pics for the month of august, which completed my project365. i would also like to do some retrospectives on my year of photos, but i don't know when that will happen...

because i am planning a new photo project for 2009: project52! a year's worth of weekly photos this time, instead of daily. some weeks will probably have more than one photo. maybe i will try to have my photos really reflect what i did each week, rather than just random things around me. we'll see. i plan to launch project52 at the start of 2009, so please come back soon!

and do check back for my last month of project365 posts. :)
