Happy Sunday! Sophia of Photographias is hosting this week’s Lens-Artists Photo Challenge. In her post, she showed photos that illustrated the cycle of day and night. I’m not an avid night photographer because of my astigmatism, which renders me partially blind in the night hours, but I do hope to show a similar progression of the photos I took on my road trip.

The color aquamarine reminds me of the color of water but at the same time, aquamarine isn’t the color of water, it’s a blue with a bit of green mixed into it.

Happy Sunday! Ann-Christine from Leya is the lovely hostess for this week’s Lens-Artists Photo Challenge and she has, indeed, chosen an easy yet difficult topic (for me, at least) and that is to illustrate in photos a favorite quote or a poem.

Having been stuck at home for the long Martin Luther King Jr’s Day weekend because of the week-long snowstorm, I found myself with little to do. Actually, there’s lots to do – read a book, write a story, refresh blog, clean the house, etc. – but I just couldn’t bring myself to do any of it. Instead, I spent the weekend in Lightroom, looking for pictures to edit.

I have been trying to reflect on the year 2023 since 2024 has begun but I’m coming up blank. I feel like so much has happened in last year yet so little. So I think I will try to reflect on some of the big things that happened in my world in 2023.

After a week of unrest caused by those dumb scammers, I finally slept without dreams or nightmares – from 7 PM to 5:30 AM. Oh, Merry Christmas to me, by the way, as it was Christmas on that day.

This is the day when I would part ways with my aunt and uncle on this trip as they would be heading home while I continued my journey.

Day 2 was another early start as the emotional nightmares caused by the scammers continued to terrorize me, resulting in another sleepless night. My Fitbit told me I only had 4-and-a-half hours of sleep the night before and again that night. That would mean I only had about 9 hours of sleep in two days.

As this post goes live, it will be the start of Day 3 of my 6-day solo road trip and so far, it is not at all what I’m expected.

With my Christmas road trip only being 4 days away (Friday), I am as festive as I can be. I wrote I wasn’t going to put any sort of holiday decorations but in the last minute, after seeing how haunted my house looked with a flickering garage light, I decided to put up some battery-operated lights on the windows, held up by none-other-than tape. They go on and off automatically, so I won’t have to worry about a thing.

It’s funny for me to think about these colors – red and green – because when it comes time for the year-end holidays, I would often contemplate on how these colors would look on my braces.
