Well...
Jumping in with both feet
and hoping my butt will follow.
First, I must tell you some sad news.
I cannot find my camera.
I know I had it when I drove to
Illinois with my son
but...
I have not seen it since.
All of you that are cheering
because of looking at my
feeble attempts at
GOOD PICTURES
can just hush your mouths now.
I WAS GOING to
take some pictures of
January things around here..
but I surfed the web a bit,
found Pinterest and...
well...here you go.
Here is a day in my
Imaginary Life.
Can I get an Amen to
THAT THOUGHT?
Sometimes all we have to do
is believe in ourselves...
even if others are consumed with
doubt...
I do believe that I CAN!
Morning will find me on my way
to Starbucks.
This is a scene that is common in
our neck of the woods this time of year.
After a drive through
Winter Wonderland,
sipping my hot coffee,
I would come home to this
Sweet Tree
holding court on my sun porch.
Walking into my kitchen
I would find these happy
little faces smiling at me.
And, instead of making bows
for the girls' hair
I might be tempted to make
a sweet little skirt...
or two...or three....
Won't be making one in my size,
thankyouverymuch,
because I already am
HIPPY enough.
And, while I'm dreaming I spot
a picture of
January Jones which
I will share with MyHero.
As you can see~
THAT proved to be a big mistake
cuz look at what happened to the
COOKIE he was holding.
Wow-
Who knew??
Back with some REAL pictures tomorrow..
I hope....
Camera? Camera? Camera?
Did anyone find my camera?
you always make me smile, thanks for that!I needed a smile today,
ReplyDeleteYou are so funny. I love the winter scene. Just as long as its at your house is fine with me. I can enjoy it at a distance.
ReplyDeleteIts turned colder here and I am not getting out at all. Should warm up in the 40s again on Thursday.
Still having tummy troubles and I have had about 3 hours sleep tonight.
In my imaginary day, I would have a figure like January Jones. Yikes! I hope you find your camera. Thanks for sharing those great photos!
ReplyDeleteLOL.. love that cookie~~~....
ReplyDeleteI have misplaced my cell charger so I feel your pain.
ReplyDeleteIt's too bad cameras aren't like cell phones and you could call it to see where it is, Diana! I hope you find it soon although I enjoyed your pictures. Those snowman ornaments are just adorable!
ReplyDeleteyou are funny..Happy New Year...wanted to say thank you for ALL the kind comments about my dad..they meant the world to me!
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year to you!! I sure hope you find your camera!! Thanks so much for stopping by:-)
ReplyDeleteYou are too funny! Camera or not, you know how to make the best of it and still put together a great post.
ReplyDeleteDiana, What makes me mad is..I once was January Jones, now I am Jan/Feb. Jones. :):) You better find that camera !!! Did you call your son? We need pictures of your life. :) I sure hope you are keeping warm. It's bitter cold here. xo, Susie(She Junks)
ReplyDeleteSo-o-o Funny!!
ReplyDeleteMarilyn
You know that January Jones is majorly hot when she totally does it for me too. That's saying something!
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year Nana!

What a fun post! I saw you over on Susan Branch's blog! Hope you find your camera soon!
ReplyDeleteBlessings & Happy New Year!

Too funny! But - I was happy to see that even high fashion models sometimes have wardrobe malfunctions. January's top is a bit crooked and the point that belongs above the left breast has slipped somewhere. It happens all the time to brides I am shooting and if painlessly try to fit it in photoshop, but if January can have a crooked top, is should be okay to leave it - right?
ReplyDeleteAnd I do hope you find your camera. Or - have an opportunity to get another one. Really - you should have a back up anyway. Memories are too precious to leave to chance and an electronic device can fail at a moments notice. Two cameras are really a modern day necessity.

ReplyDeleteThis was sure good for an early morning laugh.
That little skirt with the cowboy boots-I can only imagine that little gal line dancing in that get up.
And the melting husband-yea, I get it!
I do hope you find your camera. I have to compliment you on your calmness about the whole ordeal. Me, I'd be frantic!!
lol! Your post is hilarious as always! I hope you find your camera soon! If I lost mine I would not nearly be as good humored as you.
ReplyDeleteCute post. Happy New Year, hope the camera shows up. Hugs, marty
ReplyDeleteI never pay much for a camera as I am known to lose them. Sure hope yours surfaces, but I did enjoy your daydream!
ReplyDeleteyou're a crack-up. :o)
ReplyDeletethe laptop case?
i found a general tutorial then changed it up a bit. will share
next week. :o)
Oh...that cookie had me laughing. I would have loved to have made some of those for Christmas. And yes, we have a bit of the white stuff but it is blowing more than settling.
ReplyDeleteI hope you find your camera...I would be lost without mine.
XO,
Jane
I'm so glad I "found" your blog! Such good reading, Diana! I hope your camera will magically appear! Have a good Monday!
ReplyDeletehaha poor cookie that made me laugh!
ReplyDeleteI hope your camera turns up i would be lost without mine.
The cottage is on the east coast and i am so happy you love that book too,

LOL What a cute post! I truly hope you find your camera. I hope your New Year is the best ever.
ReplyDeleteOH MY GOSH, you crack me up!!! I wasn't as skinny as that woman on the day I was born! lol She's beautiful, for sure! (Do I hate her just a little bit? lol) I love that little girl's skirt with the boots---I can see Sweet Cheeks is gonna have a new outfit soon! Happy Awesome New Year!!!
ReplyDeleteXO

I must tell you, Diana, I'll put in a few bucks for a new camera, as it will keep me from ruining my keyboard, monitor and laptop! I almost spit my tea all over the desk! Instead - I swallowed quickly and almost choked I was laughing so hard!
ReplyDeleteI hope you find your camera. I know how lost I was when I dropped and broke mine a couple of months ago. While your story is hilarious, losing your camera is a crying shame!
Blessings,
Donna
You always crack me up Diana!!
ReplyDeleteI love the "day in the life" that you have showed!! I WISH that was my life with you!!

I hope you find your camera. If somebody loses something in this house, we go around clapping randomly. If we had a clapper attached to the lost item we would of found it, but sadly there are no clappers to be found here. Remember the clapper?
ReplyDeletexo,
Danielle
Clever, clever, clever is all I can say! Who needs a camera with an imagination like yours?

You are something else! I always leave here chuckling! (sort of like spewing iced tea all over my keyboard!) Oh, I hope you find your camera, but really, no need! Love your blog!
ReplyDeleteSo funny!! Great pics - but so sorry you lost your camera! I hope it turns up somewhere. Buster says thank you for commenting on "his" post and he feels sad that you miss your kitty! He will be your "adopt a kitty" if you want :)
ReplyDeleteHugs, Cindy
Diana, too funny! I love the snowman cookie! It looks like I feel after the holidays! Your snowman ornaments are wonderful! What a great idea! Your stories are delightful! Keep them coming! Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteJust want to thank you for becoming a "follower," Diana! xoxo
ReplyDeleteYou always make me laugh Diana, your imaginary life looks great, love the snowman cookie. Speaking of January Jones what the heck happened to Madmen? I sure hope you find your camera soon!
ReplyDeleteOh I hope you found your camera! Sounds like a good day...and the little girls skirt is adorable!
ReplyDeleteYou Always make me laugh!
ReplyDeleteI rooted very hard for Wisconsin, today! We don't like Oregon one bit! There, I said it nicely! I hope that you find your camera! I've misplaced mine a couple times right here in the house.

We bloggers sure are attached to our cameras! Hard to do what we do without them. Hope you find it soon. I know that's frustrating. Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteOh, I feel for you, truly I do! Losing a camera is an awful thing to happen to a blogger! I am saying a prayer you find it! :)
ReplyDeleteI love that sweet little girl's dress! And both the snowman cookie and those cute snowman ornaments! :) Wonderful inspiration pictures! :)
I hope you had a good New Year's and that you have a great Tuesday, too!
Blessings,

ReplyDeletesorry abour your camera..hope you will find it..

Hope You Find It! Hilarious post....I want to come sit on your sun porch! I am feeling the need for a little vitamin D! Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteOh no, I am trying to be good on my diet and then wham you show a photo of a cookie. With icing on it!!! Love your fairy tale day. Sounds perfect to me.
ReplyDeleteSo funny, Diana!! Glad to read in your next post that you found your camera, yeah! While I could do without seeing all of that snow and ice for the rest of my life, I can always dream that some day I'll be looking like that blond:) Great quote, by the way!
ReplyDeleteOh, January Jones. I'm pretty sure she's the reason my husband likes Madmen. But that's OK, since I'm pretty much in it only for Mr. Draper. :)
ReplyDeleteI hope you find your camera soon! That's a bummer.
