I was wearing my favorite t-shirt today so I couldn't resist this self portrait. :)

These benches are well loved - and for a good reason - they are the seats to the best view in Portland!

Day Thirty Five and Thirty Six

{Project 365 - Day Thirty Five}
February 4, 2011

Ok so first I'm due to give a huge explanation as to why I've jumped from day 12 to day 35. Let's just say that life really had me by the hair on my head and it seriously refused to even want to let go a little bit!

I moved eighty or so miles away to Westbrook, Maine. Let me tell you this is a very good thing, but it has been quite the adjustment!

Two days after my official first day in Westbrook my dear Father passed away (whom I miss very much by the way). My father was in a Veteran's home in Augusta, ME and was living with terminal cancer and Alzheimer's disease. My Dad was my very best friend. I could talk to him without ever being judged and if I ever needed someone, he was the one person who I knew I could always count on, no matter what the situation was.

Just when I thought I was getting out of my "funk" that my father's death had put me in and BAM!! (Literally!) I was sitting at a red light at the intersection of East Bridge Street and Bridgeton Road taking a sip of my Pepsi and then a man in a Toyota Tacoma flew into my little Dodge Neon at a whopping 25 MPH. Soda up my nose, in my hair, all over myself and my car. I've never been hit so hard in my entire life. For me it was super scary. Four days after my hit, his insurance company admitted fault, put me in a rental and is sending someone over to the auto shop where my car has been sitting since the accident to see what they will pay for damage.

Will life stop being so darn mean to me? I hope so! Soon!

Here is my picture for day 35 - my beautiful son - sporting his headphone sweatshirt and looking like he is ready to take on anyone at a game of Air Hockey!


PS - Happy 10th Birthday to my middle child Cameron! I can't believe you are finally in the "double digits!" I love you more than I could ever say! :)

Today my boys and I decided to take my rental car for a little spin and put-put around a little bit. We ended up at Munjoy Hill and here is one of the pictures I snapped. Made me think of my Dad...
