So far this year I've been working on Bucket List item #47: take a picture everyday for a year. (On a side note: I would pick a leap year to undertake this, but I didn't realize it until February 29th and for me to remember that long, I was not about to stop.)
Today is day #144 so I'm not quite half-way, but I've already had so much fun with it.
I decided my common theme would be my feet. I've been posting them on Instagram, Twitter and Facebook everyday, so I get a question almost every week to the effect of, "What's with all the pictures of your feet?" Yesterday at church someone even asked me, "Have those shoes been in one of your pictures? Because I feel like I've seen them before."
For anyone who has known me for more than a few minutes knows I'm weird. People who have known me for a few years know that I've always taken pictures of my feet. I'm not sure what it's all about, really, or when it started, but it has become a part of who I am.
I try to tell a story with each of my pictures. Sometimes, I'll admit, they're not very creative, but I can only do so much with my feet. And while I know having 366 pictures of my feet is kind of extreme, it's just how I roll ;P
Part of the reason I'm writing this post is to give a little explanation of the feet pictures so that I may not get so many questions. And I guess the only other reason I'm blogging is because I haven't posted anything in a while....
I haven't been putting them on my blog, but I plan to start putting together weekly strips, like the one below, out soon. Or maybe next year...who knows.
For the time being I'll leave you with a story about the week-strip below.
The Saturday before week 12 I was at a church work day and had some shooting back pain after lifting up a basket of (plastic) toys. I ended up going to the fastERcare that afternoon. They gave me some good drugs to kill the pain and I spent the first half of week 12 at home on bed rest. I stayed on the couch, as you can see, through Wednesday. And was well enough to be at the beach that weekend.
Week 12
Much love,
~A
