Friday Shootout - looks like I'll make it afterall....

Wouldn't want to spoil a close to perfect record this year.

Conner solved it for me...while I was boohooing the fact that I had no niches to post, Conner went and found one in the kid's playroom.   He figured out how to climb up into it, using one of his toys (amazing that he did no damage to himself climbing the wheelie thingy).

Then Conner went and helped his little brother, Noah, into the niche.  (Amazing that he did no damage to the all-trusting Noah).  

Then they called for me to find them.  

Aha!  Camera!  Friday Shoot-out! 



And that's all I've got this week.   But I really didn't think I'd have time to post anything. 

Sometimes I wonder why I give up so much of my time so freely? 

BUTLER:  "Maybe it's not actually your time.  And maybe you're not giving it up at all but using it in ways that give you joy...although you don't admit it to yourself and waste time complaining about it.  Just live in the present and enjoy what you're doing instead of whining about wanting to do something else."

  1. What a wise one Butler is. You know he is right. I had a hard time at first upon retirement. Thought I was selfish and all that BS.

  2. yeah Butler!
    love the paint job.
    we are all lucky when our children survive through early childhood.
    is Noah bigger than Conner? there is a year or so difference in age - maybe it is the perspective.
    have a great Easter weekend.

    1. Conner is taller, Noah (a year younger) is bulky and rapidly gaining the ability to hold his own with his older brother.

  4. that's a very tidy niche for a kids niche. I see only one toy on the floor.

    1. That's because I was standing in the middle of a thousand toy scattered around the rest of the room.

  6. If there is niche to be found, the kids will find it for you. And the little wheelie thing fits the niche perfectly, too. They saved the day!

  7. That is one niche I would have certainly used a lot had I had one in my room as a kid. I would have taken a pillow and blanket with me and spent hours there, reading.
