As hard as the first day of school was, you would think the rest of the week would be better.
- Tuesday - The two knocked out permanent front teeth
- Wednesday - An ambulance called for a child that would not come out of seizure
- Thursday - A 4-year old broke both bones in his arm... in half!
But, today is going to be great... I can feel it!
When I came home from work on Tuesday, I had an idea for a picture. I wanted it to include a cocktail or liquor bottle. I saw the almost empty bottle of wine on the counter and poured what was left in a glass. Next I had to look for a setting. I knew my coffee table would provide some reflection of the bottle and glass, and the brown couch would give me the solid background I needed to get the result I was after.
I got my tripod, set up the self-timer on the camera and ignored the
"what the heck are you doing" coming from Dave and Kevin. I didn't want my tired, haggard face in the picture, so I put my head down.
I snapped one picture.
So even though it looked like I relaxed after a hard day at work with a bottle of wine, my relaxation came from sitting in front of my computer editing this picture.
** An update on the kindergartner who stayed in the circle on Tuesday because the teacher never called the color he was wearing: She asked him the next day... "
Why didn't you go outside, I called the color green?" His answer,
"I was wearing teal." (I think he can skip the lesson on colors this year!!)
