I Heart Cleaning
054/365
Lame I know, but it's true.
I love to clean or should I say I enjoy it or I don’t mind it. The weekend is usually spent cleaning what I did not clean during the week.
I clean in workout clothes while listening to music and I’m good to go for hours. I am unable to leave the house when I get in clean mode. I feel guilty when I neglect peeps because I want to clean.
I don’t do baseboards or windows, but I better go clean some blinds. This place is a dump right now.
My OCD pipe dream is for every room to be organized at the same time (all books in height order, can goods facing front, cupboard tight, clothes hung in the closet by type, linen closet stacked and clothes in the drawer folded properly.)
I enjoy looking at photos of things neatly stacked, folded or an uncluttered room. I could go on, but it gets worse.

I love the World Wide Web
053/365
Hard to tell what I’m loving here? Well lemme tell ya then. I love the Internet, I love the WWW and I love computers. Where would we be without them?
My computer is one of the first things I turn on when I wake up and when I arrive home. I once went a day without using the computer or getting online and it was painful. I don’t think I will do that again, but I do need to cut down my computer time.
Usually, I'm sitting at my desktop and only use my laptop occasionally or for travel.
Computer addiction, or more broadly computer overuse, is excessive or compulsive use of computers that interferes with daily life. Wikipedia
Am I the only one who thinks that ComputerAddiction.com should not have a website?
This photo was taken moments ago, just getting in from work and I’m baking cookies now and will wash it down with a bottle of wine. Want some?
Oh I love computers because there are some cool people inside my laptop.

We Love Music!
052/365
Next up in the Things We Love series is music! Yes, we love music.
Okay we know this photo doesn’t show a lot of musical stuff going on, but this is the music center in the house. The stereo is to the left.
We love jazz and R&B, but will listen to anything with a catchy beat.
We also love to sing and dance, but will not do these things in front of other people. One of us is shy.
Music is a great mood lifter and it also relaxes us, without it, we wouldn’t survive long.
Side: the lighting on this photo needs work, but we were racing against the clock this morning with the late sunrise, changing clothes and having to leave the house. We try not to use flash, but natural lighting, for our portraits. We will revisit this Photoshop effect a little later on.
3 photos stacked on top of one another, erase the background. change clothes if you want. that simple. will need a tripod and control over your lighting.

I Heart Writing
51/365
I love to write!
My biggest regret is that this love was never nurtured or even recognized when I was younger and that I never kept a journal growing up.
Being the private person that I am, initially, I didn’t share any of my writings, poems or stories with anyone. I’m a little more open now.
I think it was the use of email and not having to be face to face with someone that made it easier for me to share and communicate.
I love to write at night when the house is quiet, sometimes I write at (rhymes with jerk), and I always carry a pen and paper with me for when inspiration strikes.
Sometimes I don’t write at all, but a blog post or some off the wall conversation will write itself. I have no clue what I’m doing, BUT my dream is to be a published writer.

I Dream of Cookies
50/365
...in living color.
Continuing with the Things I Love this week is a no-brainer. If you know me then you know I love cookies. Preferably homemade or gourmet chocolate chip cookies with some type of nut. Uh huh.
This makes me very easy to shop for in the gift giving department, the way to my heart is through my stomach.
