Day #4

I really think I need a 11-7p.m. or 12-8p.m. job.  I enjoy eating breakfast/brunch between 10 and 11a.m..  I don't know about you, but I LOVE leftovers. Even when I lived alone, I cooked enough for 4-5 people and ate leftovers in various combinations!

So goes today's brunch.  Leftover garlic/cheese sausage and peppers from last night's dinner plus 2 of the hardboiled eggs I made last night.  Don't the yolks of these eggs look like sunshine? I added a side salad of organic greens with cottage cheese, pineapple and black olives.  It's good to have a small amount of organic greens at each meal.  When I was getting certified as a Personal Trainer I remember learning to suggest to clients that they eat a handful of organic greens 3-5 times a day for 2 weeks before they started an exercise program.  When exercising after a sedentary period in your life you will release stored toxins, especially in the joint areas and can get flu like symptoms. I had a few clients who had to stop exercising for a short period because of all the toxins that were released. Eating the organic greens will release chlorophyl and you can decrease the amount of ill effects of the toxins. Fresh pineapple is also a natural anti-inflammatory.  After working out it is good to have some fresh pineapple and some clean protein such as tuna. I love Chobani yogurt and I chose the raspberry flavor plus a small glass of 100% organic grape juice.  That should hold me until a let afternoon snack!


Had a shrimp cocktail for lunch and a mid afternoon 7.5 oz. Pepsi! :-)

Went to Heart Rhythmz Studio and Anahata Gallery to plan our next show.  September 13 will be the Opening Reception for Hearts & Hands from 5-8.  Mark your calendar now!  Did a nice little glute and quad workout on the TransFIRMER (formerly the Fanny Lifter) and feel really good. Did a little upper body work using the resistance tubing, too. Easing back into it.

Cooked some Beef Filets on the grill seasoned with Caribbean Seasoning, topped with cocktail shrimp that I threw on the grill for a few minutes to heat up. I made a nice salad and had an ear of corn to round out the meal.  Sliced up the leftover steak for the next few days.  I feel some seafood coming on for the weekend. Hmmm I still have that Beach Plum Gift Card from my birthday!

Day #12 Part 1, Fri. 7/13

Friday the 13th was an AWESOME day! Started the early day off with a Chobani raspberry yogurt before taking the 7:04 Amtrak Downeaster to Boston for my PhotoWalks Tour of the Boston waterfront. Packed some water because it was going to be a hot one! Got into North Station around 8:20 and my tour wasn't until 10.  I just HAD to have a few last photos taken with Ray Allen in the TD Garden before they take him down! I had plenty of time to get to the Old State House Museum to meet for the tour so I walked over to Quincy Market and then up to State & Washington Streets. There was a sweet man sitting on the bench with his dog playing some sort of French percussion instrument. He had a little dog on the bench next to him .  I asked if I could take some photos of him and he gladly obliged.  I told him about the upcoming Hearts & Hands Show and he asked if the doggie's paw counted! :-)  I took several photos and then Saba, the tour leader arrived. There w...

I'm Happiest with Camera in Hand!

If you do what you love, you'll never work a day in your life! For 37 years I've been doing what I love, teaching children and adults.  Now I'm preparing for the next chapter of my life, RETIREMENT and taking photos & creating art.  Spring and summer have been busy, but oh what fun! I started off with a Spring Apple Blossom Family Photo Shoot for the Croeber family. The blossoms had passed, but I was able to perform some magic with some apple blossom photos I had taken a week before!  Always up for a challenge!   Later in May I was surrounded by love and cuteness when I photographed Katelyn, Kevin & 10-week old baby Jayden.  We had a beautiful, yet breezy day to take outdoor photos at North Hampton State Beach and Plaice Cove before moving indoors.  I'm so in love with these images!   I'm convinced the flowers loved our long, cold winter. From lupine to poppies to peonies and roses, they have been nothi...

Sneak Peek for Kristin & Stephen “Tie the Knot❣️“

 Each wedding is unique. Even though we basically start with close to the same photo list there are always individual requests that are special to each couple. I try to bring out the essence & individuality of each couple for their special day❣️ Here is the Sneak Peek for Kristin & Stephen's beautiful wedding day! They'd never been to York so when I said we needed photos at Nubble, Kristin said, "If we have time!"  Ummmmm, NO! We need to make time . . . and we're glad we did!    My 3rd wedding in 3 months and final one of 2022 for me!  Two hearts, one from New Hampshire and one from Newfoundland, were united in a small, intimate ceremony surrounded by close family members & lots of love at York Harbor Inn in York, Maine when Kristin and Stephen literally “tied the fisherman’s double knot❣️” on July 6, 2022.
