Final week of Straight Out Of Camera (SOOC) over on Self Portrait Challenge...
I am obsessed with hanging my laundry outside. I know that may seem old-fashioned and archaic - modern technology allows us to tumble dry, right? But at what cost? In an attempt to save electricity, I bought a two-line retractable clothesline this past spring, and used it all summer to help cut the high electric costs that come with summer in Texas.
In the process, I discovered some things...
- Laundry hung outside smells amazing!
- Try washing everything on your bed, line-drying, and then remaking it right off the line... the fresh, outdoorsy scent will send you right into la-la land that night!!
- Being outside in the sunshine for a few minutes to hang and then fold really boosts my mood.
- I finish the job! I can't tell you how many times clothing sat in the dryer for days before I remembered it was there... stuff on the line gets my attention everytime I walk through the house and look out the window.
- small steps truly can make a difference...
Run over to Nicole's blog and sign up for a $45 gift card to CSN!
Wouldn't that be a great help for some Christmas shopping? I can't believe all the brands available on this site for home, toys, shoes, gifts galore.
hmmmm, what would you buy? I would love to buy this teakettle from Paula Deen:
Self Portrait Challenge's "SOOC" (straight out of camera) theme continues...
It may be fall, and other areas may be losing leaves and battening down the hatches for freezing weather, but here in Texas we enjoy a big garden boom now that the weather is not scorching. I love this time of year.
I've entered one of my Woodland tops in the EtsyKids design challenge for October - Woodland (now isn't that handy?)
If you have a moment, would you mind voting for me? My entry is #14. It's easy to vote, you don't have to enter any information or anything, just make your selection & push the vote button at the bottom! Go here to vote.
There are a lot of cute entries this month, and voting is really close, so every vote will help! Thank you!!

plus new Lacy Lola Jeans, with more to come this week -
There are so many things in life that I cannot control, so organizing the things that I can control allows me a way to find some calm amidst the unpredictable.
More Straight Out Of Camera shots over on Self Portrait Challenge...
This month, Self Portrait Challenge is doing Straight Out of Camera (SOOC) - no editing whatsoever except for resizing.
This was an experiment to see if I could take a decent picture of my reflection in a mirror without having the camera show.
