The main difficulties I encountered with this project were a) it's very difficult to take a photo of yourself, thus most photos don't even have me in it and b) whipping out my camera in public (without some scenic view or anything really worth photographing) felt a little awkward...I was convinced I looked like a total weirdo. Oh, and I didn't want to make my coworkers uncomfortable by taking their photo, so I kept my lens aimed away from them.
Without further ado, a day in the life of Dana. This was a mostly typical Wednesday.
After hitting the snooze button multiple times, I finally wake up.
I shower (no photos of that, sorry) and put on my makeup.
About an hour later, I'm ready to go!
I drive to work... (I was pulled over to the side of the road, for those of you freaking out that I took a photo while driving)
...and arrive in Naperville at 8:00.
I stare at this for 8 hours...
...answering emails and doing other unexciting work things.
I'm trying to eat healthier snacks, so mid-morning I stop for some carrots, celery, and peanut butter.
Aaaaand then its back to work, building a website.
1:00, it's lunch time! I sit in the conference room, to get away from my desk.
I do all my reading on my lunch break! And I totally overcooked my frozen dinner :(.
After lunch it's more of the same...
...until at 5:30 I leave the office for home! I had to work late :(.
Today wasn't the best day at work (because of something I screwed up), so I listen to the angry rock station on Sirius, lol.
The weather matches my mood. It's rainy.
I stop at Wal-Mart for some milk and fabric softener.
I actually cheated on these next two and used a flash. It was simply too dark.
Rob had a hair cut that evening, so Grandpa J was at my house watching Luke. When I walked in the door, they were hanging out on the couch.
Later I realized it looks like the clock is growing out of Luke's head. And yes, Luke is wearing Halloween pajamas in January.
We say bye-bye to Grandpa...
...and have some dinner!
We're getting VERY good at using a fork!
After dinner I unload the dishwasher and put away dishes...
...do a little vacuuming...
...and open the package that came for me. It's the new camera bag I ordered, hooray!
Rob gets home, and we give Luke a bath. It's his favorite time.
Hi!
Daddy is in the bath with Luke, so I wait outside the tub for them to finish so I can take Luke and dry him off.
All clean!
This is blurry but I still want to share. Luke gives his daddy a kiss goodnight!
With Luke in bed, I finally get a chance to eat something. It's late and I'm hungry, so frozen pizza it is...
I put up my feet and relax on the couch with Rob for awhile.
Watching TV.
Then I take out my contacts, swallow my pills...
...and bed time :).
And that's my unexciting, but very busy day!
