Happier Times
We really have had a rough week. I'm definitely not at my best, so you're all going to have to excuse the extremely low quality narrative of my blog post. I'm obsessed with writing (Conceited? Moi? Definitely!), but today...nope...I am so stressed I have nothing but meaningless waffle. Sorry, and all that....normal service will be restored shortly.
What is stressing me, you may wonder, in a kind of disconnected, non-interested way? Work of course. Too much work and no pay make Jill a very dull and blue kinda girl. Plus an afternoon with monster-in-law. It's enough to make anyone head for the Kalms tablets with a high level of enthusiasm (thanks Grommit for the recommendation! Blessed Valerian Root indeed! Makes you less stressed plus completely stoned!)
Anyway, my favourie image of the day is NOT A NUDE!! Shock horror! Sorry, I know I'm supposed to like nudes and only nudes (politically correct and all that) but I loved Magic Flute Nudes' State Fair I know I should only really post links to nude art, but this image really reminded me of when I was a kid. Some of my happiest memories were at the local fairground. I love it, dammit! If I had enough money (in fact, if I had any money at all), I'd buy it, frame it and stick it on the wall, where it would remind me every day of happier times. Rich thinks I'm nuts.
Anyway, second fave image of the day is Nad Iksodas's boats photograph from his blog post today. I'd give practically anything to wake up to that view in the morning. Wow. It's beautiful...
Funny how some art speaks to you like that, isn't it? Not many people "get it" but this time, this moment, I really do.
Favourite munchie of the day: My son's Victoria Sponge Cake. Food makes me happy!
Favourite moment of the day: My husband telling me he loves me, even though I'm clothed in the chic attire of a scruffy student, look like the dog's dinner, and despite the fact that the day-job customers have been truly bloody horrid today.
Favourite quote of the day is from Warren Buffett: "It's only when the tide goes out that you learn who's been swimming naked."
Very true! Especially today!
Right I'm off to play theraputic ping-pong with my sons :-)
Claire Louisa. One of the best things I like about blogging is that I get to publish the images I really like! (Even if other folks may not like them as much as I do!)

I Still have 2 bottles of red left, if you 2 figured out how to get your teleporter working.........
oh, and you'd give anything??
well. lets just say.. I had to give up quite a bit to have this view, and it's worth it, to take time out, step back, and enjoy, even if the times are not the best...

Teleporting.....right....now....!
Damn and blast, it didn't work :-)
Thanks much for the link. And for your kind, kind, very kind remarks about this instance of the "other side" of my photography.
As to a print, see separate email ....
