L.E.N.S. photo challenge: cropped

 This was my favorite group of the Atlanta parade on Saturday...the Model A Restorers of Georgia.  The cars were so fun to see and hear.  There were so many of them it was hard to take them all in as they rolled by us.  Would love to see these at a car show sometime to enjoy all the hard work put into restoring such grand cars of their day. 
This was the original...I cropped out the first car (that I missed by a second's hesitation) and the person in the dark coat walking down the street. 

Come join in on the fun at Home Is Where You Start From.

    I love old fashioned things. These cars are terrific. But isn't it amazing how far we have come? There is so much technology today. It is almost scary how quickly it changes.

    If I had my way things would go at a slower pace...like these cars! (:>)

    Glad you had fun at the parade.

home of the Braves

As a metro Atlanta resident, it seems almost a requirement to go to a Braves game to continue living here.  I grew up watching baseball and loving the game...and have been to a few games in St. Louis, Cincinnati, Detroit...and of course, Atlanta.  The problem for me going to a Braves game is purely mental...having been a Mets and Cardinals fan for years, I just haven't the love necessary for the Braves to call me a fan. However, as with many things in life that I haven't particularly enjoyed over the years, my boys make it so worth my time and heart.  I go watch the Braves because I love my boys...and my boys and I love baseball.  Well, they love what they know of the game...still in training, but getting the hang of the lingo and SOP's of a baseball fan rather well. There are a few things that remain the same from stadium to stadium..."the wave" (Braves' attendees do not always get into this, which is very di...

it's not about me

I reminded myself of this recently. It's not about me at all, this wellness journey I am on to a healhier version of myself. Not at all. Never has been, really. It is about the people who invest in me. My husband. My boys. My family. My friends. They all share themselves with me. When I am not at my best, I'm not giving them a good return for their investment. They get the tired looks, the lack of energy excuses, and the wimpy "maybe next time" cop outs. I have come to realize that those that take precious time to invest in me deserve better from me. I need to adhere to the direction given on any flight I've ever been on that goes something like this: make sure your own oxygen mask is properly secured before helping others. If I don't take care of myself first, my ability to care for others effectively diminishes quickly. My choosing clean eating, drinking enough water, and exercising on a daily basis is how I put on my mask first. Am I perfect at meetin...
