October Photo-a-Day Challenge

So crazy!!! I had my fingers on the wrong keys on the keyboard and trying to google "pinterest" but I was typing it in wrong because of the wrong placement of my fingers and google STILL KNEW what I was trying to type! lol

To start using my camera more, I'm taking on one of those "photo a day" challenges. I found one from here that I have been using.

It's been almost 2 weeks and I haven't even uploaded my pictures until now. I'm sure every blog post from me is like "picture overload!" but oh well...I'm sure you're used to it by now, and I'm really enjoying taking pictures and feeling artsy (I have a scientific mind, I'm really not very artsy).

From the top!
October 1: Where You Stood

yes...two different socks...

 October 2: Lunchtime

homemade ziti with cheesy bread

October 3: This Happened Today

                Ben cleaned out his laptop and realized quite quickly that the keys on the keyboard are not very easy to put back in.

also, it rained, fred and I slept in, and then later I went to work

October 4: What You Read

October 5: Shadow
this seemed more difficult than it should have been. probably would have been easier if I had just went outside. 

also, i got a neat picture of Fred:

October 6: I'm Thankful For...

  I'm thankful for a lot of things: Family, Friends, thankful to be alive, thankful for a "dream job" (thankful to have a job!), thankful for my life. I saw a very tragic accident on this same day and it's really got me going round and round with how thankful we all should be and how short our lives are. To watch things on tv and see them in real life are two totally different things that I suppose I just wasn't aware of until that day. Moral of the story: tell people you love them and drive safe. Ok, enough crying and back to blogging..
 

October 7: Light

  The sunrise was so pretty that day. Not sure if this is the best picture to represent "light", but it was enough to wake Fred up, who in turn woke me up. 

 
October 8: Angle

October 9: Red
