It was an okay day today.
I walked with my friend early on. The weather wasn't too bad this morning (still below freezing) and the main roads were fairly clear. After my walk I had a couple of errands to run and some housework to get done. So nothing too much. I should have done more sorting but I didn't.
This evening I sat and watched some television with husband and worked on some photos. I'm not sure what tomorrow will hold. I think we are taking a break tomorrow from Jane's as MIL as some things at her house to get done and I know that there are things at mine that need to be taken care of. It is supposed to be sunny in the morning but very cold. I'm not going for an early walk but instead will try freezing some bubbles. I managed to do it the other day but the light outside, and background for that matter, are not very good so I hoping that as the sun rises I might (not guaranteed) get some colour coming over the back garden and it will help with the lighting.
The other day I had a couple of sort ofs
And more than a few pops!
My 27//365 Phone Photo Things That Make Me Smile are the two magazines I treated myself to with some Christmas money today.
I have been doing really well on my low spend month. It really helps that the roads are bad and I don't want to drive lol.
These are probably older issues (last months in the UK I think) but I am glad that I can at least get them here even if they are a little pricey! Reminds me of home and the photography one always has great articles and ideas.
Frozen bubbles? How utterly beautiful. Something I've never met before but then I wouldn't in a country that rarely goes more than a few degrees below freezing.
ReplyDeleteAre the magazines very technical?
xx
The photography one is quite lovely. It's my favourite. It has articles about photographers, but it also gives you settings for the photos included and tips.
DeleteOutdoor photography. Hmmm - must look that one up, thanks. xx
DeleteYour frozen bubble photos are great. I even like the popped one! How long do they take to freeze?
ReplyDeleteI tried them again the other day and they were freezing really fast that sometimes I couldn't take a photo in time before they were all cloudy lol. IF they stay up they only take a few seconds when it's really cold.
DeleteSending hugs. It sounds like the winter and the weather are bearing down on top of everything else. Want to remind you that you are incredible and only a tiny, tiny fraction of people even attempt to catch pictures of bubbles freezing - so you are awesome. Take care of yourself.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the lovely words. The winter is dragging on. Unfortunately for us there's still our coldest months to go!
DeleteI love those bubbles! "Treat yo self" - from Parks & Rec, T.V. show...ahahaha. We all deserve a little treat now and again. It's -20 here...actual temp. So, I'm just going to try to make the best of it.
ReplyDeleteYou could try frozen bubbles lol. You'd have no trouble there!
DeleteI love your attempt to freeze the bubbles! Glad you treated yourself to the magazines. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks! I did better on Friday!
DeleteFreezing bubbles sounds fun and those photo's of the bubbles look incredible. If we get a cold snap I'll give it a try and perhaps I'll manage to take a photo.
ReplyDeleteIt is fun. It can be frustrating especially if they keep popping, but if they work they can be really beautiful
