365/365

today is the last day of project365 for me. i can’t believe i have finally made it across the finish line. my enthusiasm has ebbed & flowed over the past year but amazingly i managed to muster up just enough each and every day to take at least one photo.

i sat at work this morning feeling like it was all a bit of an anti climax. i think i had this thought somewhere in the deep dark recess of my brain that the final photo would be something huge…perfect…momentous. but as i stared out the window and saw a gloomy wet day i felt a bit sad that my final photo would in fact be a bit bleak.

work was yuk. fog in sydney, rain in brisbane, low cloud in adelaide, windy in perth – even cobar was fogged in! flights delayed all over the place. and a system upgrade last night went awry so no one had any flight plan details. add to the mix the fact that i was tired and feeling anxious about all the work i need to do before my psych exam next tuesday. and yes… as teggo so kindly pointed out, i was stuck working with one of my favourite people. NOT!

anyway, i made it through the day at work and then picked the kids up from school. the rain was clearing and blue sky emerging. i felt at a loose end. i had itchy feet feeling like i wanted to do something but really lacked enthusiasm to actually undertake anything. the kids took off to play tennis in the park. i pondered following them over but ended up having a 5 minute snooze on the couch that was promptly interrupted by the sound of a new car horn beeping out the front! yay! it was mama lou lou and the tribe in their brand new car (something good came out of the accident). she handed me the keys and i took off with them all hooning around the local streets! very nice indeed. how good do new cars smell! suddenly i was feeling brighter.

we were out the front waving them goodbye when i got a text to say paul and the kids were on their way over! beer oclock & skateboarding in the park. what more could i ask for. over there til way after dark and we literally were getting carried away by the mozzies.

funny how things can turn around so quickly.

so with that, project365 is now officially OVER! time to move on to project52weeks. can you believe i have “blogged” something like 400 photos and over 42000 words this past year?

for those that come here to read, and catch up on all the goss – i will still put the 52weeks pics & words up here once a week or so. thanks for all your kind comments, words & emails – it is actually really nice to know people other than me get something out of this!
