Day 211: Winsome by Missy

so, i wanted to challenge myself... winsome was that challenge. winsome is defined as 'charming in a childlike or naive way; alluring, sweet, irresistible, charismatic' ...
i immediately thought of audrey hepburn...
in NO way shape or form would i ever dare to compare myself to audrey, but i wanted to capture sweet and a sorta classic movie feel with this shot...
i hope that comes across...

Day 210: Wasabi by Missy

went out for hibachi last night!

Day 207: Wring by Missy

been so busy... finally edited my photos from the last few days..
wednesday was my, um, 26th birthday and i got lotsa cool stuff!!
we took turns wringing the bubble wrap and pretending the popping was
the sound of fireworks on a hot and humid summer night.....

Day 206: Wii by Missy

if you were to add up all the time & $$$ spent on video games here...
well, i don't want to talk about it...

Day 205: Weave by Missy

i have nothing to say about this one....
'cept that i had a weave last year ...

Day 204: Wife by Missy

i've mentioned my podcast before, but have never plugged it.......
so i'm going to today.
my girlfriend and i have a weekly podcast called 'the messy housewives'... messy, you ask? yes. messy is simply a combo of our two names, jess and missy... we really are not dirtbags... we discuss very important topics and play some wicked music... more than anything, it's fun and just another chance for us to be creative...
check us out on itunes or on our website!!

Day 203: Web by Missy

i read an interesting poems about spiders and webs
but it was too long to post here...
can't even post a portion of it or one line in particular and have it make sense.......
i'll be thinking on the words for a while...
it's deep.

Day 202: Wool by Missy

this morning i went on a class trip to pomona hall, not 5 minutes from my house... it's the restored home of the cooper family dating back to the early 1700's. i learned a lot. seeing and hearing about the camden of yesterday as opposed to the camden of today, well, it's exciting & heartbreaking all at the same time.
we had the dullest, most disagreeable and abrupt tour guide named pam... after the trip, the kids and i talked about what we saw & i complained about pam... i came to find out she lives next door to one of the students... i felt slightly ashamed, but not really, cause it was true.
the best part of the trip was talking to mercy, a delightful costumed old lady who vividly explained how the kitchen of pomona hall would have operated...
i wanted to take her home as my souvenir...

Day 201: Wolf

"Even a girl who is pure in heart and says her prayers by night, may become a wolf when the wolfbane blooms and the autumn moon is bright..."

Day 200: Whisper by Missy

these are weird mouth noise hot tea breath whispers...............

Day 199: Wallet by Missy

i prefer a non-traditional kinda wallet... a small bag of sorts.
here are my essentials...
cash monies, phone, dl & cc, new lip stain (for edward cullen tinted lips) and a chappy!
i think wallet snooping is big fun!!

Day 198: Watch by Missy

i had a better idea...
didn't want to wait though...
(i love forever 21 rings...)

Day 197: Wicker by Missy

i don't have any wicker furniture...
but while at the gardens today i thought that these willowy branches, once dried, look like they could be used for wickerwork...

Day 196: Wire

the usb cable for my mic is sparkly cool...

Day 195: Waffle by Missy

nothing like a sj diner breakfast...
i always have a waffle...

Day 194: Wash by Missy

wash...
inside the washer...

Day 194: Wash by Em

Some of Missy's pictures have these cool effects. And they're all edited and wonderful. With me, you're lucky if I crop the picture (which I usually do). I don't have the skills, but maybe an "A" for effort?
(At least I have a cute subject to photograph. Washing her foot.)

Day 193: Wind by Missy

since i couldn't bear to snowtograph the blizzard, i present...
the wind of my hairdryer...

Day 192: Wish by Missy

i wish it was spring already...

Day 191: Wagon by Missy

a snow covered wagon at the town hardware store...

Day 190: Whistle by Missy

we have train whistles... we have tin whistles...
we have slide whistles...
and i've worn a fur coat all weekend...

Day 190: Whistle by Em

Sure, she's cute.
Less cute when she's blowing the whistle before 7am.
Thankfully, she can't yet blow at full power, so it's more like air with a tone.

Day 189: Water by Missy

even though water was a theme back during august,
it's always fun for me to take a stab at another shot of the same subject....
i love the movement of water...

Day 189: Water by Em

Do you know how hard it is to take a picture of a drop of water falling off the tip of an icicle? Hard But there it is, a big fat drop, hanging off the tip of the left most icicle.

Day 188: White by Missy

i met a lovely girl named jen hermann tonight... we discussed our german descent... she is a crafter, a jewelery designer... she talked on the phone to a man named tony... she carried with her a giant snowball... she threw the snowball from a balcony
three stories up while talking to tony...
i managed to document this amazing event...
this is jen and her magnificent snowball...

Day 188: White by Em

Snow is white. So are snowflakes. I DID take this photo on the correct day. In the midst of a 2-day storm that dropped 20 inches of snow on us. Unprecedented in central Virgina

Day 187: Drum by Missy

the drums are finally up!!!
(thank goddess for mute pads...)

Day 186: Wheelchair by Missy

this is a shot of the medical supply store window...

Day 186: Wheelchair by Em

Handicapped parking.
Where no one can currently park.
Because the parking spaces are covered with snow.

Day 185: Winter by Em

I am not following the "rules" because I really, really think that Missy just needs some company on this blog (Hi Missy! Hi everyone else? Where are you?). I did not take this picture on the correct day, but it just screams "winter" to me!

Day 185: Winter by Missy

today is your classic winter day...
not only is it a 'snow sky', but you can smell the snow in the air...
i gave myself two minutes to take as many photos as i could outside and this one was my favie...
it truly depicts winter in my eyes...

Day 184: Window by Missy

well. i hope this isn't too presumptuous of me, but since there was no theme on the calendar for today, i went ahead and chose something...
i do hope that this continues...
i want to keep going...

Day 184: Window by Em

Hmmm, I think that perhaps are windows are not all that efficient, as this is the view out our bedroom window most chilly mornings. (Some view, eh?)
