Photo Challenge: Day in your life

I did this one time on a message board that I am part of and the response was a lot of fun. So I hope some of you would like to participate.

The challenge, if you choose to accept it, is to photograph a day in your life. It can be any day, but there is a simple rule – You can not take pictures of any people. The idea is to use objects to convey what it is you are doing.

Who’s up to the challenge?

Prime Time Emmys

Nothing really jumped out to me as OMG, Stunning last night...or anything too horribly ugly. But here are some of my thoughts:

Best Dressed:

Tina Fey & Mariska Hargitay

Sofia Vergara and Julie Bowen (I love that Modern Family!)

Julie Benz

Claire Danes and Hugh Dancy, what a gorgeous couple!

The handsome men:

Ryan Kwanten. (I think he is from True Blood??)

Jon Hamm, oh so handsome!

Neil Patrick Harris. I <3 the Doogie!

Jim Parsons! All the pictures of him look waxy...too much make up, but hello it is SHELDON!! And he won!!! Nerds rule!

And seriously, there is no one more handsome than Mr. George Clooney!

And the WTF's:

I have no idea what is going on with the top half of Rose Byrne's dress. And the hair is a fright.

So many people chose Lea Michele as one of the best dressed of the night. I hate it, hate the bottom, all the ruffles.

Oy, Lauren Graham, oy!

And an undecided:

Honestly I don't know what I think about January Jones dress. Normally she is just stunning. The color is gorgeous...the cone bra is odd, the hair is a mess.

Another Monday has arrived.

Monday comes way too early. At least this week is leading up to a holiday weekend.

How was your weekend, my lovely family and friends?

I went to Hobby Lobby on Saturday. Oy. Such a dangerous place for me…really any craft store is. Shelley had mentioned that the Hobby Lobby near her in Arkansas had a great sale on fall/Halloween items. So I stopped at Borders (couldn’t find anything I wanted) and then headed over to HL. Boo on my local Hobby Lobby as they didn’t have anything on sale for Halloween. Oh there was a LOT of cute stuff, but not on sale. However, there was one aisle of Thanksgiving directions, one aisle (both sides) of fall leaves/flowers, one aisle (one sided) of Halloween decorations, and then 9 aisles, both sides of Christmas stuff as well as all the Christmas trees out. Really? It isn’t even September yet!

However, I saw plenty of Christmas stuff that I want. Does anyone do themes for Christmas or do you just decorate with everything you have? I have a lot of snowmen and usually that is my theme for everything. But this year I want to start getting a penguin themed tree going.

Did anyone else watch the Primetime Emmy Awards last night? (My next post will have some fashion from the night.) Anyone that knows me knows how ecstatic I was that Jim Parsons (Sheldon, The Big Bang Theory) won lead actor for a comedy. Much deserved and he is absolutely hysterical. And Modern Family is one of my favorite new comedies so I was thrilled for their huge win as Best show, Comedy. I have a soft spot for ol’ Al Bundy, Ed O’Neil. And that show is just a riot. I was bummed that LOST got shut out completely, though. Your thoughts on the show? How did you like Jimmy Fallon as a host?
