Day 59 +1!!!

Happy Leap Day everyone!  What are you going to do with your extra day?  Any ladies planning to propose?!  I hope you find time to snap something

extraordinary

(I'll be back later today to catch up on yesterday's posts!)

Today has been extraordinary for me for several reasons!
1. It is 29 February!
2. I had my haircut! (I hate going to the hairdressers and snip my own fringe until the rest of my hair looks a real mess)
3. I quite like my new haircut! (though it does show up a lot of grey ... will be remedying that later ;))
4. I went shopping for a few holiday clothes and bought them without trying them on ... and they all fit!
5. I went into TKMaxx looking for something specific, doubting they would have any, let alone any in my size and a suitable colour ... but there on the shelf was a lone pair of Birkenstocks, size 6, metallicy-powdery blue! Just waiting for me! How extraordinary :) (I am notoriously unlucky when it comes to buying shoes - they never have my size!)

So here are my extraordinary Birkenstocks ... I'm wearing them in now so they mould to my feet in time for my holiday :-D

Day 59

Not a very inspiring word today ...

grey

I'll be back with mine later! I actually love the colour grey. It makes a change from black! Here's my grey handbag:

Day 58

Another choice today! The planned word is ...

misty

but I don't think there's a lot of mist around the British Isles this morning! Sooooo ..... take a photo of a

tree

and make it a tree you'll be able to revisit at some point later in the year!

Here's the first tree I see as I step outside the house each morning:

Day 56

Welllllll .... we were going to have a few days of weather themed prompts, but I'm thinking that's not going to work too well ... so I'm going to give you a choice!

The planned prompt for today was

raindrops

but if it's not raining were you are and any other interpretation of the word is too much for the brain cells, show me something that tells you it's

Saturday

Saturdays in this house are all about football ...

Day 55

I will catch up on yesterday's photos this evening ... promise!

So yesterday we had a freaky warm day with clear blue skies all day (well, here in Essex anyway!) ... and today the planned word is ...

cloud!

Snapped this outside my house on my way home from work - literally about 5 minutes ago. It is now completely overcast and grey!
