One for green week ...

I don't know who started 'Green Week,' but I'm seeing it everywhere, and I love it! So, I'm contributing a very green spot (absolutely unretouched!) from our trip to Colorado last spring - not quite a year ago. This was from a day that we lunched in 'Old Town' Louisville, not far from Broomfield.

Knitting does continue - I've got a pair of ladybug slippers (kind of my own design), a pair of strawberry hats, and a brain-eating monster that are this close to being finished. They've been fun little projects - just need to get some pictures of them ... there's also a Malabrigo silky merino scarf in the works, in Spring Water (which is pretty much, well, green).

Lots of other things are in the works, as well - various photo shoots & photoshop editing (I'm so new at this that it takes forever), and lots of social stuff (birthdays, catching up with friends we haven't seen much of, and the like). These aren't excuses, exactly, though I have to admit to feeling a little guilty about how infrequent these posts are becoming. Maybe it's just a matter of routine? I don't want to give up yet, so I guess I'll just have to accept my 'shortcomings,' such as they are. Otherwise, this will just be a chore, and I certainly don't need any more of those.

One thing I have decided to give up is the reading challenge - it really is a great idea, but boy did it bring out my inner rebel! No sooner did I start to make a real list than I discovered about eighteen things I'd rather do than read any of those books! Oh well, at least I'm not feeling the guilt there. I know that someday soon, when the feeling of 'must do' has faded, the rebel will fall asleep and I'll want to read some history again. Meanwhile, this has been the book of choice - truly a feel-good read.


Alllrrrighty, now back to my own, personal green week - it's definitely everywhere!
