Dawn Brocco's Life & Design Blog

Been plugging along on the next Gazette issue, and the usual household stuff and errands and last night won Scrabble again from hubby! I'm not good at Monopoly, but am not bad at Scrabble.

It was pouring most all day yesterday, so no photos taken yet, but I see the sun peaking out a bit, so maybe today will be lucky. I can do the sock photos indoors, but the jackets and other garments really take better photos when outdoors. Finding a good background at this time of year can be difficult. The grounds look so much better in winter than mid-summer. But maybe I'll find something decent to hang on the side of the garage as a backdrop, as the light there is really good - and with a digital camera, if the pics don't work, it's no loss.

I have been back up into the attics today, as son-away-at-grad school responded about which things he wants to keep, that I'll need to box up and send to him. Daughter has many more things I'll need to ship, but isn't that typical with girls! He has things in various places, but not huge amounts, so it's just about cleared out. Hubby screwed some 12' long boards to the back staircase so we can slide the heavy boxes down out of the attics to load into the truck to take for recycling and disposal. No point in breaking our backs!
