Week NINE of fifty-two | {ROUND the house}

Time never seems to slow down and a new month has arrived! March…which should bring hopes as spring will begin this month. It seems we are usually eager for a new season about this time of year – ready for some color to brighten our surroundings, more daylight each day and hopes for some warmer temperatures. Living in the Pacific Northwest, that’s not always the case, although there might be signs of new growth and quite possibly some early flowers starting to bloom by the end of the month, but it doesn’t necessarily mean that it’ll be warmer or even dry…we never know what we’ll get in the next month…or maybe even two months…winter could still show up, as it is threatening for tomorrow morning! Since we have no control over the weather, we just have to embrace “whatever” the weather is and make the best of it…and find some news ways to make the best of the time and for me that means finding something new, different and unique to photograph until we see new “life” shining through in the spring. This week I look aROUND the house and was amazed at all of the round shapes there were. Now, I could have included even more, but you get the idea…it’s everywhere…literally, every room in our home, I stepped in and quickly found circles, whether it was light switches, sinks, door knobs, clocks or even our Keurig coffee cups…they were everywhere…inside and out! Look around, pick another shape, if you’d like and just see where you can find it…it definitely makes you start looking at things differently than you typically do!

The last photo is part of a collage I received from my kids a couple of years ago…love seeing my kids every day in this photo and since there was an “O” in the photo, I had to include it this week!!

Here’s to a wonderful week ahead for everyone…make the most out of each day because you have no idea what life has in store for you…live life to the FULLEST!!
