Day 79: Self Portrait with the Number 5 (and some thoughts…)

Some thoughts so far…

So over 78 days I have done something each day—creating something, somehow, some way. Sometimes I am just overjoyed in creation and sometimes I am doing it quickly, haphazardly, or even begrudgingly at the end of my day. Mostly I have enjoyed the process, though. It has produced ideas, and mostly I look forward to it.

Today, however, Day 79 I am just plumb out of creative juice. I know this will pass, but I feel like this project is dragging and purposeless, and it's feeding into my anxiety, and problematic self-esteem issues. Goodness gracious.

I created anyway. So here you go. The number 5. I call it: Self Portrait with the Number 5.

Day 71: Creating Memories, Fun, and Space

My days have been crazy with work. Not only have I been catching up at work (which is always a little harried) after a short vacation... I've also been working on freelance web development project this week. Although the work has been stimulating and interesting, I am just about frazzled! Last night I took a break and went to the U2 concert. It was not Restful! However it was awesome. Larger than life, really. I've never been a huge U2 fan-fan. But a concert experience like that one, phew. Pretty insane.

So, this was one of my views for the approximate 5 hours while the concert wasn't going on. Small space, among lots of people. It's probably one view hardly anyone else took a picture of (and 90,000 people with cameras means a lot of pictures), but above us and around us were lights, cameras, and action! So this is my creation for today: Experience.

Day 51: Quinoa Fields Forever

Did a lot of cooking today and really enjoyed the cooking and the time with friends I cooked for. I made another quinoa dish and was fascinated by this little grain/seed as I was about to cook it. So here are a few pics to take a look at this neutral, tiny, versatile food.

I also made caramelized tofu with Brussels sprouts from 101cookbooks.com (http://www.101cookbooks.com/archives/caramelized-tofu-recipe.html). Don't knock it til you try it!
