I used to love doing A Day In My Life In Photos on Livejournal - or at least I loved it in theory. In actuality I'd lose momentum halfway through the day and end up with a lot of useless nonsense photos of the morning. But I recently started following
The Dainty Squid, and she does this thing where she takes one photo an hour for a day each month. Doesn't that sound a lot more reasonable? So I'm going to shamelessly steal her idea and also try to do one Photo An Hour post per month. Here's my January 6th, 2013.
10:00 am: I am woken up by about a million hungry cats. And by a million I mean four, but that's close enough when you're dealing with cats.
11:00 am: I break out my new light box to transfer a sketch on to watercolor paper. It works really well - super exciting stuff.
12:00 pm: I start making a shopping/meal planning list in preparation for our grocery shopping trip. Grocery shopping is the worst, but a list makes it slightly less terrible.
1:00 pm: I sort out photos for my Life Lately post.
2:00 pm: we stop at Wawa for some gas. I lead an exciting life.
3:00 pm: At the pet store we see these adorable quails. Aren't the just the cutest things? Maybe I would like to raise quails instead of chickens...
4:00 pm: Fresh veggies at the grocery store.
5:00 pm: We put the groceries away and reward ourselves with some Netflix while we eat leftover pizza. I'm living the dream over here.
6:00 pm: I take down the Christmas decorations. It is easily one of the most depressing tasks in the world.
7:00 pm: I start painting the sketch I traced earlier in the day.
8:00 pm: Finish writing the Life Lately post I started earlier.
9:00 pm: Time for a little World of Warcraft on my embarrassingly old monitor.
10:00 pm: Chips and dip with Chris while we watch more Netflix.
11:00 pm: I end the day the same way I began it - with cats in my face.
