Go for a bike ride? Or maybe I can stay on your couch for an evening?<br /><br />Sundays for me have been about working lately. I wake up and go to my favorite coffee shop for a little pick me up, then I do about three photo shoots in my back studio, then I take a walk if it is nice, or read a book, or watch a movie. I edit photos, respond to emails, cozy up with friends or family, and then take a long hot bath in my jetted tub.<br /><br />This Sunday is a super busy one with three big shoots and then out to dinner with my Sis to celebrate the opening of our business.<br /><br />I LOVE Sundays.Stellahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05630323371719995793noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4451107997404938848.post-85759437634530063802011-02-16T12:20:40.088-05:002011-02-16T12:20:40.088-05:00Melanie!

If and when that changes, it's a major life alteration, a milestone, a reference point. Something where you can say, before, it was like this, now, it's different. It seems pretty natural to use that as a reference point when talking about your life.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4451107997404938848.post-43385632044928290242011-02-09T22:28:51.803-05:002011-02-09T22:28:51.803-05:00I seriously wonder if I'll ever be able to sha...I seriously wonder if I'll ever be able to shake Mormonism as a reference point for everything I appreciate in life.

We also try to keep it really relaxed, since we have to go back to work the next morning, we don't want to wear ourselves out. I don't think our lives would be very exciting to an outside observer, but we sure do like them.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
