It's Real Life

OK, I'm addicted. It only took once and now I can't stop. Here's my "It's Real Life" for this Thursday. First, if you click on the It's Real Life badge it will take you to the originator's blog so that you can participate if you want.


Here's what you do: To participate you simply to take pictures at any given time of some things around your house. The catch is you can't primp, preen or otherwise prepare the area to make it seem better than it is.





Curb Appeal - I tried to get creative and take a picture of the house in the reflection of the car window but that works best when the car is clean so I threw in a "regular" picture too.
Junk Drawer - This is the closest thing that I have to a junk drawer and it mostly just has pens. I have a junk "box" in the laundry room that holds our batteries, miscellaneous tools, masking tape etc etc etc.From whence I blog - My Precious. My Woobie. My laptop. Seriously if my Woobie ever dies you can find me curled up in the fetal position sucking my thumb probably under the kitchen table. It's on the end table next to "my spot" on the loveseat so I can access my e-mail while nursing. You can also see the ginormous water bottle that I got in the hospital when I delivered Gideon. I still use it. I drink a lot and hate having to get up to refill a regular glass. If you look real hard you can see the little green squirt bottle that I use to spritz the cats when they are naughty. Yep. That's the kind of girl I am.Favorite Jewelry - Of course it's probably my wedding ring but my lazy side (and busy side) won out. The wedding ring is upstairs in my bathroom but my other favorite piece of jewelry is around my neck. So here is my "push present". The gift that Rob got me when Zion was born. It's her birthstone, an opal. My best feature - Well, based on how often I'm whippin' one out lately to nurse Gideon you'd think it was my boobs and they may be depending on who you ask but I'll keep it clean and say my hair. It's really hard to take a picture of your own hair when you don't want to use a mirror.
