Project 52 - Week 24 - Coffee

It seems like that I only get these Project 52 theme pictures done anymore.

Hopefully I will get other pictures done  

Once the flowers are out more I will have lots to take... 

This week's theme is

Project 52 - Week 24 ~ Coffee

I don't drink coffee very much anymore but this week I decided to try some cold brewed coffee.  I think I like it better then hot coffee ~ maybe because I do put sweetener in my cold brew coffee.  I made some Mocha Caramel Iced Coffee and it was so good... If you want the recipe, you can get it  HERE.

Project 52 - Week 23 - Breakfast

I am a few days late with last week's post 

The Theme is

Project 53- Week 23

Project 52 - Week 22 - Natural

I am a few days behind in posting last week's Project 52.

The theme was

Project 52 ~ Natural

I decided that for this theme I would pick the sunrise.  Last week I was up early which is kind of unusual for me as I am a night shift worker.  But since my hubby left for downstate to work, my sleeping habits have been kind of screwed up.  Anyways one day last week I was at 4 am and was able to view the sunrise.  I loved how the sun was shining through the trees in front of the house.  So out I was in my pyjamas taking pictures... Not sure what the neighbors would think if they saw me.. and hubby would be horrified if he knew what I had done... But here are the pictures I took with no editing what so ever... Just Natural.

Project 52 ~ Week 21~ Play

I am not sure where the days go but they seem to be gone before I know it.

This week for Project 52 our theme is

Project 52 ~ Play

When I first joined this group and thought about doing pictures each week I had planned on doing pictures that I had just taken or at least taken close to the time that I needed to post it.  When Play was brought up for a theme I thought perfect... a couple of weeks ago I had taken pictures of a couple of bunnies in the back yard, playing.  So I went to look at those pictures as they were still on my computer.  I never got the bunnies together so they didn't really portray play.  I had to dig back in my archives and I remembered taking pictures of my nieces playing in the park in the spring.  I  also had used a new app at that time to scrapbook the pictures.  

So here is my interpretation of play:

Two seasons

I have always lived somewhere where you do know the differences in the seasons..

But when you live in the north, although there is supposed to be four seasons

there are only

Two Seasons  

Those two seasons are 

Winter

And

Road Construction

and this year the road construction is right out my door...

NOT HAPPY...

First they brought their big machinery and dug up the road...

The house was vibrating...

This all happened last week but it does give the neighbors something to do

chatting and watching what is going on.

They did have to take some time out to pump out the water out of the ditches when it rained.

So now onto this week's work

All this construction is leading to very little sleep... and when you are a night shift worker, sleeping during the day is not a easy chore on any given day.  So needless to say that this summer or should I say road construction season, I am thinking I won't get too much sleep.  Right now they are working across the street and I still have some access to getting out of my yard.  I am not sure what will happen when and if they need to dig up our side of the street.  But we do get some compensation for all this.  MDOT is sending us sometime in the near future a cheque for $100.00 just so our taxes can go up.

Project 52 - Week 20 - Vintage

I don't seem to get any other pictures on this blog except the Project 52.

Hopefully I will get more taken now that spring has finally come here to the U.P.

Project 52 - Vintage

A couple of  months ago, I went and took some pictures of a friend's newborn little girl.  I had lots of fun doing it.  Although the baby isn't vintage.  I used an old suitcase and some pearls in the picture and when I edited the picture I did it in sepia so that it would look vintage.
