she's still got it

Happy New Year to all my Flickr friends. (better very late than absolutely never). I know many of you have been concerned over my 8 month absence and I wanted to take a quick opportunity to poke my head in to say simply "hi" and that "I'm ok". I have continued to snap casual pictures with my iPhone and have spent quite a bit of time talking casual portraits for various people in my life who have asked me to. I have processed a few of those but for the most part, have become quite rusty on the processing end. I do not plan to stay away forever . . . taking pictures and being creative with them is a part of me that I couldn't shake even if I wanted to (which I don't). It is who I am and who I have always been. I'm like this camera . . . I'm an old picture taker from way back when. One, who misses being here with you and daily being inspired, encouraged and motivated by you, your talents and of course, your pictures. I do not see being "back" in the near future but simply wanted to let you know that I will return some day and hope I find you all still here.

I sincerely hope you are doing well and are being blessed! Thank you for all of your notes filled with kind words and warm thoughts. Every one of them have been appreciated.

Not a Thursday comes and goes but what I don't think about it being "Retread Thursday" and my soul has missed retreading . . . so I'm here trying to find a spark of something lost. This is a retread of a picture titled "blown away" that I posted here originally on 02.03.08. Seems like an eternity ago. I know I can't go backwards but maybe this will help me move forward.

Here's to this week's "weekly photo challenge" and "the letter gee" and to Dallas Mavericks for bringing on the heat in Game 6 and the NBA Championship!

Thanks to my co-worker Jerome, who is a HUGE Dallas MAVS fan . . . you gave me a lot to work with!

For those who know me, you know Kim Richey is my favorite female singer-songwriter. If you know that, you also know that it's impossible for me to pick a favorite song of Kim's but this one would always make my top 10 list on any given day. For some reason it's been rolling around in my head for a day or two and I picked this image from archives to provide the backdrop for it here. I hope it helps to introduce some of you to Kim who are not familiar with her amazing voice and songwriting skills.

Please check her out as she provides a soundtrack for this shot and for my quite Texas evening . . .

(sorry for the short advertisement at the beginning of the video but it's worth the wait, I promise)

Hope you all have a weekend that is most enjoyable even if it is just spent being at "a place called home".

p.s. welcome home all ye travelers
