Sunday Pause (Paws): Waiting

It’s  Sunday! Time to kick back, relax, and wait.

Wait for what? Well Cino is waiting under the tree for Santa Paws. 🙂

Version 3

I read something recently that went something like this: Don’t live for the weekend, but live each day at its best. Good advice for all of us whether waiting for the weekend, waiting for Christmas, or even waiting for something scary like results. We can enjoy each day and all it can bring if we allow it.

Sunday Pause (Paws): Thankfulness

It’s Sunday! Time to kick back and relax!

With Thanksgiving only days away, this is a good time to push the pause button and think about what we are grateful for.

The picture above is a project an old co-worker of mine did with her family this year and hung on her wall. I thought it was such a great idea I had to share it! Continue reading

Sunday Pause (Paws): Things You Enjoy

It’s Sunday! Time to kick back, relax, and enjoy the things you enjoy doing.

I enjoy writing poetry and a more recently discovered passion of photography. Not even the photography as much as the editing and fun you can have with one single photo.

Below is an image I had fun creating to go along with a poem I found on Facebook. (Note: I contacted the author of the poem and she knows I am using it)

Sunday Pause (Paws): The Little Things

It’s Sunday! Time to kick back, relax, and enjoy the little things.

What are “the little things?” They are having a cup of tea, talking to a friend on the phone, spending time with your pet, lighting & enjoying a scented candle…wait a minute. These are not little things at all, rather they are the big things.

Sunday Pause (Paws): Sharing My Day Trips

It’s Sunday! A time to kick back, relax, and enjoy the beautiful weather.

I have gone on a few day trips lately and I thought I would share some of the pictures with you from these leisurely days.

Sunday Pause (Paws): A Lucky Cat In A Basket

It’s Sunday! Time to kick back, relax, and enjoy the little things (like looking at a cute cat in a basket).

I had some fun playing around with this photo I took and creating different versions of it.

We’re Here, We’re Just Thinking

Hello all!

I wanted to let you know that we are still around. 🙂 Things have been a bit busy. This is a busy time of year at my job, there are things I am trying to resolve at the place I live, I am working on a logo for my friends photography business, and I have been photographing, editing, and enlarging some of my own photos to frame.

Besides those things, I have been doing a lot of thinking. My sister’s death has really made me take a look at my life and I am at a bit of a crossroads right now.

Sunday Pause (Paws): For Family

It’s Sunday! Time to kick back, relax and spend some time with family.

For this post, I have included pictures of just a few of my family members. They are photos I have taken recently while spending time with them. (Note: The photos of my parents didn’t have the greatest quality, so I did a lot of playing around with them and decided to turn them into more of “artwork” type photos. That is why they look as they do.)

My mom and I recently had the most enjoyable time going for a walk by a man-made body of water. We found a swing to sit on and we just kicked back, relaxed, and enjoyed the view while sipping on a Chai Latte from Starbucks (my favorite and I mean FAVORITE drink).

Sunday Pause (Paws): Take A Look Around

It’s Sunday! Time to kick back, relax, and notice what’s around you.

Before I begin this post, I just wanted to mention that each one of these pictures were taken by me over this past week (except for the very last image). Some of them were taken with my phone which takes really bad pictures. They would have just been bad quality pictures if I left them alone, so I had fun playing with them and making each one look different.

Just in this past week I have seen a lot of beauty around me. From the flowers above to the beauty in nature as seen in the photos below.  Continue reading
