the sounds of short A

I definitely owe an explanation for my lack of updates. I very recently moved into the downstairs apartment of some friend's house in Bradley. It is weird being back in Kankakee county, and I hope some good comes from it. I am gonna keep this brief, but here are some photos of where I am living.

The view from the front door into the dining room.

If you keep going through the doorway on the right, you enter the kitchen (view from backdoor).

If you make a hard left from the front door, you reach the living room with the lovely grandma couch.

A few things have changed since I took these photos but I really did not feel like taking new ones. Maybe later sometime. That's all for now =D

A little something I've been working on. I bought the pattern from Etsy, my most favorite online consignment shop. My first attempt ended up looking like a weird pink acorn but I figured out what I needed to do and the second one worked much better. I plan on making one for pretty much everyone I know ♥.

I suck so bad at updating this. Since starting the new job I've been on a way different schedule that I've ever been on before. I'm having a hard time balancing everything I did when I was unemployed while getting enough rest to make it through the day. Unfortunately some things have had to take a back seat. I probably didn't start this blog at a very good time in my life, but to be honest, I had no expectation of having a job any time soon.

Onto the things!! One thing I like to do is just happen upon a situation to photograph and immediately be able to run out the door and shoot it. Yesterday evening was one such occasion. I love photographing flowers and we've had these bleeding hearts I've been trying to capture for a long time. But it was never quite right. Until sunset.



On a completely different note, I've been totally digging Pandora at the office. I tried regular streaming radio (9FM) but it seriously got on my nerves after a while. I highly recommend Pandora, though. I have already written down close to 15 bands that I did not know about and fell in love with from this week alone!

OK that is enough for now, Blogosphere. Be expecting photos of projects and yumminess from this past week over the next few days!
