Monday was the day we went to my friend’s mom’s funeral. And the day we got the news about my husband’s layoff.  While initially, I willingly admit, these two things might appear to be less than fantastic happenings, there are amazing things coming from them.  I quickly saw that my life is changing and I am changing.  My perspective is changing and I’m thinking, it’s about bloody time.  lol

One of the wonderful things (I think and hope) that has come out of my Monday is a new page called “Inspired by the details.”  So named (by me, still awaiting approval from my partner in crime) by her connection to “Details” and for me “Inspired” because that is exactly what I am looking to be.  Or am and just don’t always know it.  Not sure yet.  Anyway, here’s the concept.  My friend loves photography and wants to do more of it and her and I have had different conversations about starting some co-creative project together.  While my mind was racing in light of the layoff news, it came to me that I needed to just write.  About anything.  I don’t care.  Funny, weird, heavy, light, emotional, nonsensical….I don’t care!!!!  So the proposition/challenge I put to her was, that she must provide me with one photo daily and I, in turn, will write about it.  Keep in mind, the photos can be of absolutely Anything!  haha….How fun is that!!!?  I hope she’s in because I think it has the potential to be one of the most incredible experiences of our lives.  I’m kicking it off with a photo I took (don’t laugh!) 🙂 and a little tribute to my girl.
