I just found out about Susannah Conway’s August Break. She describes it on her blog: Each day, for the whole of August, you take a photo and share it on your blog. You can add words if you want — or not. You can use any camera. You can share a series of photos, or miss a day out, or just post on weekends. There are no real rules, basically. This is all about being present and enjoying taking photos just for the hell of it. She provides prompts for each day.
A big thanks to Jill at A Thousand Shades of Gray for clueing me in about this project.
Day 1: Breakfast
I don’t eat an exciting breakfast, usually instant oatmeal at work, so I thought I’d share a picture of my favorite mug instead. It’s a Kelly Rae Roberts mug. When you are done drinking your favorite coffee or tea there is a surprise heart at the bottom to remind us we are loved. On the outside is a heart with Kindness changes everything written 5 times at the bottom.
Day 2: Circles (I had no shortage of circle picture ideas…)
One of our wrens peaking its head out the (circular) window.
I took this photo and then used the Percolator app to create this. Lots of circles!
Lily and her pretty round eyes and cute round nose.
Day 3: Yellow
The Self-Compassion Project 
great picture of you! (When you have a second, check out my blog post of Brittany’s visit earlier this week…I think you’ll enjoy it…) DM
