Hello, and thanks for visiting! A couple of months ago a good friend nominated me in one of those Facebook challenges you may have seen doing the rounds - 7 black and white photos over 7 days from your ordinary life, excluding people and pets, posted without explanation. I accepted the challenge, and enjoyed the process so much that I was soon wondering how I could extend it. This blog is my answer. The photos won't always be in black and white - I've long understood how important colour is to me - but I plan to adhere to the other rules of the challenge for a full 365 days and, in doing so, tell the story of the next year in my life. Knowing how I struggle with discipline, especially self-discipline, I imagine this process will throw up quite a few challenges for me but hopefully that will all be part of the growing and learning process. There will be little or no explanation posted, though I'll be happy to chat in the comments, and I hope you find something here to enjoy.
haha! DIY is a very dangerous occupation!
ReplyDeleteYes it is Kylie! We are building Gary a new wardrobe and so far it has gone very smoothly (but I don't want to speak too soon, so don't tell anyone). His last big DIY project was re-roofing the shed, which he did very well - right up until he put the disc cutter into his thigh precipitating a major hospital drama! This time .... so far, so good!
DeleteWell..In my book DIY stands for 'Destroy It Yourself'..HeHe! Except for the run of the mill things, l'm a bit lost with anything complicated...Though quite at home with a hammer and a 6inch nail..! :).
ReplyDeleteAnd..fortunate enough to have many friends who are but a phone call away, for anything that needs doing!
It's good you've got people to help as it's really no fun if you're not 'that way inclined'.
DeleteWhen Gary and I set up home together he warned me he didn't "do" DIY ...... since then we've built wardrobes, re-tiled bathrooms, re-routed wiring and taken down walls! Initially a case of needs must I think we now look on it as an outlet for creativity of sorts, and have become quite good - as long as no water pipes are involved .......! ;o
