Hair today, ...

I participate in a scrapbooking challenge, 52 Blessings. Today's blessing is lack of vanity.

Challenge: 52/365

The second ScrapShare challenge I joined was 52/365, a photography challenge.

Each week we will get an assignment designed to help us explore the functions of our cameras and become proficient at using them. I've been wanting to do that for a very long time, so I'm excited to participate.

The problem isn't the required photographs, or the camera...it's posting my homework! Scrapshare forums don't host photos directly. In order to post my photos in the thread with everyone else's, I have to upload them to another site, go to the forum, post a link back to the photo, then post all the exif information from my camera. It's making me crazy.

Taking the photos was easy; I've posted half of them, with the required info, but the process just seems like too much work, given my current energy level. And the second assignment is probably posted by now.

Challenge: 52 Blessings

I joined two challenges this year on ScrapShare. One is a scrapbooking challenge, 52 Blessings; I commited to creating a layout each week about a blessing in my life.

The only hard part has been limiting myself. I finished the first layout before the thread was even created to post the results; I created my second layout the next day. I've started a couple more. I have to keep reminding myself that there are other tasks that need my attention.

I'm just so grateful for the many blessings in my life that I can't wait to record and share them!
