Well it's been well over a week since I last blogged and I have hit the one month mark (yay). Whilst I have been quiet on the computer I have still been taking my daily picture - I have just been holed up on the couch for a week with a really bad chest infection/ flu - so I'm pretty happy that I still managed to find the motivation to take the photo's cause let me tell you, there wasn't much motivation to do anything except lie like a sloth, cough and blow my nose - charming hey!
I tried to be arty with some of the lights that I have in my house but not many of my shots worked out at all - Once I get time to work out how to use my DSLR properly on Manual settings I hope to re-take this photo and see if it works out better - I like the moodiness of this photo but it is a bit grainy and I had to do a bit of editing to make it look ok.
Tuesday 30th August - Day 30
Again I tried to be arty and failed - this time using my point and shoot - I was playing around with the colour settings where you enhance 1 colour and everything else is B&W - but I just couldn't get a shot that was light enough - I guess if I was taking them during the day it would be different. I chose this one as it was the best of the bunch - and I took heaps of different ones around the house. (Apologies for the lopsidedness - but I just can't get it to sit right!)
Wednesday 31st August - Day 31
Today the only thing I did besides slothing and watching Beverley Hills 90120 (thanks Erin) was go to the doctors - I knew I had to take a photo and whilst I have no green thumb, I have been pretty excited that I actually managed to grow a plant successfully so when I got home I used my phone to take a photo of one of my favourite flower's - this beautiful freesia - and yes I grew it all by myself - well actually last year I pick a whole lot of bulbs off the side of the road and shoved them in my garden hoping for the best and viola - 1 flower grew amongst the weeds - I have done the same this year - planted a whole lot of freesia bulbs so hopefully next spring I will have more than one.

Spring - Yay - but still sick! It was gorgeous outside today and I did manage to leave the house which was good. For a few weeks now I have been eyeing off a pair of shoes but they had run out of my size - today they rang to say that they had new stock in which was exciting and as I had run completely out of food - I trekked up to the shops and bought my new shoes!
