I broke my no-rules rules many times this week…my goal was to take most of my Imperfect 366 pictures with my Nikon DSLR, but it just didn’t happen this week for some reason. I did need to remember though that iPhone pictures are better than no pictures, right? I decided to just go with it, and hopefully this coming week I’ll get back on the DSLR game. If not, still no sweat. That’s the great thing about a “no rules” photography project!

The cupcake picture is from my Rock Your Happy newsletter from Friday. I tackled the topic of “busy bragging” and saying goodbye to it, for good.

It was a week of many days of “almost” forgetting to take a picture for the day, and I had to rely on iPhone pictures 2 of the days, but you know what? That’s what #Imperfect366 is all about…remembering that every day isn’t going to be perfect, and an iPhone picture is better than no picture! Right? (The photo above is from my Rock Your Happy Newsletter! Are you subscribed?

OK on to our week in photos……

January 18th  The girls have been begging me to buy a bunch of different flavored Oreos so they could do the blindfolded Oreo tasting challenge. It turns out, apparently they don’t really love Oreos because we now have 6 bags of Oreos no one wants to eat.

January 19th I’m a stationary hoarder. It’s a fact. If you follow me on Snapchat and watched my coffee talk, you’ll see I’m making an attempt to unload my cards in a way that might brighten others days. So, I’ve spent my afternoon writing cards to strangers who are friends of my Snapchat friends…and it makes me happy to do it!
PS these gorgeous cards are illustrated by Jenny Bowers. Such talent!

January 20th I picked Leah up sick from school today, and she was acting so happy and perky. It was then that I gave her a lecture about not “faking” sick and how she always needs to tell the truth. 20 minutes later, she threw up on her way to the bathroom, all over the floor. Talk about mom guilt!

January 21st This morning on my Snapchat Coffee Talk I shared about my longtime struggle with S.A.D. I’m so thankful for friends who’ve known me a long time who recognize when I’m in one of these funks and reach out to pull me out of it. This month seems to have hit me harder than normal. Is it summer yet?? I’m so ready!…
