365 Project: Day 123

19 May
I think I’m sick….again. I really hope I can shake whatever this is quickly. I’ve got a fever and my body is radiating heat, but I couldn’t resist getting out of bed to soak up some of this beautiful summer sunset.
Now I have to get back in bed.

365 Project: Day 122

12 May
Summer is by FAR my favorite time of year. I worship the sun. Although I do wear sunscreen everyday…even in the winter. During the Summer the days are longer, the nights are all warm and fuzzy, I don’t have to wear shoes, I can go swimming and camping, BBQ, 4th of July, fireworks, etc. There are too many good things about summer to list.  

I was able to sit outside this morning and enjoy my breakfast of coffee and cinnamon toast before the wind picked up. Its so nice to take a few minutes to enjoy the morning. Of course, I had been up since 6:52 am and had already gotten a good amount of work done before I decided to enjoy my morning around 9:30 am. At least I made an effort to take a second for myself today. I was proud of myself for that.

2 Time Couture

11 May
I recently had a photo shoot at a great little boutique in Albuquerque called 2 Time Couture. I finally got a chance to post some of the images for you guys to see. I had a great time shopping while I was shooting (sorry, I couldn’t help it!) and these ladies were so much fun! 

365 Project: Day 121

10 May
My sister and I drove down to our parents’ house this weekend to spend Mother’s Day with our mother and grandmother. It was so nice outside and my car was filthy so I decided to wash it the old fashioned way. No motorized brushes. No high pressure sprayer. Just me, bucket of soapy water, and the hose. Just being outside in the hot sun, wet driveway under my bare feet, radio playing classic rock in the garage…it started to feel like summer. 

365 Project: Day 120

8 May
It was such a nice day outside today. It was warm, sunny, and (for once) not windy. I’m so happy that its almost summer. I wait all year for summer. I also found the biggest Dandelion I’ve ever seen today. It was a good day.

365 Project: Day 119

5 May
Tuckered. There is no better word for how I’m feeling right now. Its been a long day. I just want to melt into my bed right now.

365 Project: Day 118

3 May
The past week has been chaos around my house. The police have been at the house across the street everyday for a week. They’ve been arresting people, hauling stuff out of the house, and still continuing to stake it out from an incredibly obvious van that I’ve seen parked in the street. Today there was a cop chasing a car down my street when they refused to pull over. I’m starting to worry.

On top of that, there has been a construction crew at my house every day for over a week now. They are turing that garage full of junk that I took my picture in front of on Day 108 into a studio apartment. I snuck in there today to take a peek. I’m a little annoyed that the landlord chose to put money into converting the garage instead up fixing the two houses that are already falling down on the property. I think this will be a nice little apartment for someone once its finished though. It would make the perfect office for me if I could afford to rent it. Or if I actually wanted to stay in this house another second. With all the craziness around here lately I can’t wait to move out of here!

365 Project: Day 117

1 May
I love 24 hour places. Restaurants, gas stations, bars, etc., I love them all. There is just something about a business that NEVER closes that I find really interesting. I have become a sort of connoisseur of these kinds of places. That was my favorite thing about Las vegas. EVERYTHING is 24 hours! Its like heaven.
My new favorite 24 hour place is Harold’s Laundries. This place is amazing! Its a 24 hour convenience store that is also a laundromat. I love it! The laundromat part is genius! All it needs is public showers and you could practically live there.

The convenience store is small, but its stocked with all the essentials: sodas, chips, stale “fresh” pastries, candy bars and a sassy elderly woman who has obviously smoked most of her life/ gotten too much sun behind the counter. In addition to all the traditional goodies, they also have an ample assortment of miniature laundry soaps: liquids and powders. There is even one of those Claw arcade machines that are impossible to ever win a stuffed animal out of, and a candy/sticker/temporary tattoo/crap you don’t need dispensers that every kid loves. 
I took a ton of pictures there today while waiting for the laundry to finish. I can’t wait to show you guys.
