So about that May…

I still post all of my photos on Flickr, but I feel like no one sees them because I forget to share that I’ve posted. But some fun stuff has been happening! So here are a lot of photos:


I won Twins tickets through a vendor at my company — awesome seats in the Legends Club!

My luck lately is incredible - won free tickets to see the Twins! #project365

We had two or three nice days of early Summer weather in Minnesota, and I got some yard work done — including adding a second garden plot!

Sore and covered in dirt, but now I've got two 4'x8' veggie gardens that are ready for plants!

Carrots, onions, spinach, beets and green beans are all sprouting from seeds I planted just before Memorial Day! Now if it would just warm up around here, maybe my tomatoes and cucumber plants would grow a bit, too.


Annual photoshoot for the Prairie Fire Lady Choir! It was also a sort of season kick-off for us.

Donning fire colors, enjoying cake - this PFLC season is in full swing now! #project365


Not too long after our photoshoot, we had our first engagement of the season — singing a David Bowie tune at First Avenue for Rock for Pussy, a benefit for Feline Rescue. Lots of glitter, sequins, and make-up.

It took me at least four hair washings to get all of the product out of my hair.

It was the first time I was sharing a stage with my friend, Orion.

I met one of the guys who wrote the theme song to Friends, and all of the beers I drank made it necessary for me to tell him about 15 times that I watch Friends while I’m on my elliptical every morning. I REALLY DO. Then I told him he should hire our choir for something.


Painting! Here are the before photos:

Two colors down, two to go... #project365

And here’s a finished photo of our accent wall, at least. I’ve either forgotten to photograph everything else or I have photos on my dSLR that I’ve forgotten about. I’m forgetful.

Bam! Accent wall! #project365


I took a week off from work for a staycation, so I finally had a chance to visit the Robbinsdale Historical Society. It was smaller than I expected, but there were quite a few Robbinsdale lifers that wanted to tell me about everything they had, which was great!

A real mink stole that gave me the heebie-jeebies. There was also a silver fox stole. Little legs and all!

I was told they are looking for someone to help catalog and archive everything digitally. I can’t even imagine what kind of time that job would take, there are so many photos and memorabilia in this room!


Last night (this morning?) was Northern Spark. Jason and I saw a 7′ foot tall black dog, ghosts of St. Paul, and even had a private session with a medium before seeing the Prairie Fire Lady Choir sing inside of the Union Depot. Oh, and a house was lit on fire at 2am.

What does it mean?!


Anyway. You should probably follow my Twitter for Project 365 posts, my Instagram for all the random photos I take, and my Flickr. Everything gets posted to Flickr.
