Life unexpected

Life Unexpected

Has your life ever taken a turn that was completely unexpected? Well, My life seems to be twisting and turning all over the place. IN crazy directions and I am trying to keep up. I think that Robert Frost Says exactly what I am feeling. So I will let him. 

Robert Frost (1874–1963).  Mountain Interval.  1920.

1. The Road Not Taken

TWO roads diverged in a yellow wood, And sorry I could not travel both And be one traveler, long I stood And looked down one as far as I could To where it bent in the undergrowth;         5 Then took the other, as just as fair, And having perhaps the better claim, Because it was grassy and wanted wear; Though as for that the passing there Had worn them really about the same,         10 And both that morning equally lay In leaves no step had trodden black. Oh, I kept the first for another day! Yet knowing how way leads on to way, I doubted if I should ever come back.         15 I shall be telling this with a sigh Somewhere ages and ages hence: Two roads diverged in a wood, and I— I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference.

My Aunt gave me this beautiful old water can  this week. It is gorgeous. I wish that you could feel how smooth the handle has become over years and years of use. i has taken on the most amazing patina and I love its shape,  It's curves are breathtaking.. (i know it is only a utilitarian watering can) Sometimes you need to open your eyes to seeing something ordinary in new light. 

 I have also been playing  hard at work with PhotoShop. All I can say is I am feeling very creative. It has opened up my eyes to an entirely new medium. I have to tell you when I purchased this (PS) My husband encouraged me to do so. (not sure why but he did) I went and got it brought it home and felt like I had just thrown away that money. I couldn't even figure out how to import a photo into the program. I seriously thought I would never use this... haha think again. I started to read and I am slowly figuring out how to use it. I stupidly once told someone that it was cheating to edit your pictures.... Sometimes I am a dingbat (see I can admit when I am a moron) I don't think I let anyone see my SOTC (straight out of the camera) anymore.... 

OH well... I am  going to start my day. 

one more thing.... To all my followers (all 13 of you) I began my journey of actually running this week. My goal is to run a  5K in 6 weeks. I have wanted to do this for as long as I could remember. I just couldn't get motivated. SO my husband (being the Marine that he is) encouraged me to just get out there and do it.... Even if I didn't want to.  So thanks Honey ! So I will let you know of my progress.... Here goes nothing!
