OLW February

I can't believe its the last day of February already, sometimes it feels like time moves so quickly and it is all a blur.   I'm guessing its an age thing :)

This month I feel I did better with my goal of finding time to move within my schedule, as opposed to making separate time to exercise.  I was much better at going for quick walks while waiting for the girls while they were in dance and gymnastics.  I have to admit that most of the time a trip to Starbucks was planned along the route.  In any case the nicer weather totally helps :) 

I also focused on moving towards my goal of taking care of my skin a bit better, and have been fairly regular with moisturizer, and I tried a new tinted moisturizer for the daytime, with that add a bit of mascara and lipstick and that has to be the most makeup I've worn in years!  

I am also happy to report that after close to four years I finally got my wedding rings resized so I can wear them again! Although this totally has Sara in awe with mommy's new shiny rings, and she wants to constantly trade her Dora and Hello Kitty rings for mine.  Right now she is wearing them to bed :)

The assignment for February was to take some pictures related to our word.  Once finished the pictures will be 3X2 and fit behind the word cards made for January.  I still need to take pics of the rings (see comment above), Starbucks (another trip is needed in order to take the pic (wink), and the moisturizer stuff.  But I love the pictures spelling our the word "move"

  7. Oh, yeah, the "move" in your photos is fantastic! Love how you're incorporating the word - and what it means to you - into your everyday life. I think that deserves a Starbucks drink! ;) Blessings as you continue to move through the journey...

  14. I love the photos spelling out your word and I love the quote at the end. Nice finish to your post. I would love to know how you found those letters for your word. Is it a feature on Flickr? Do you simply search on Flickr for each word. Thanks so much for participating! I enjoyed seeing your blog.

  16. Thanks for the sweet comments :) The photos are all my own, I just tried to look around and see things with a different eye.

    The M is a hand, part of a painting on the wall at dd dance school (the photo on the right is in that same series) the O is part of a painting in our dining room, the V is part of dd plastic chair, and the E is a stop light.
