When you work for yourself and you goof off, you only cheat yourself.
So I've been working away today. Dinner made early and out of the way. Ornaments out and lined up for photos.
Thinking it wouldn't be so wrong to just throw a load of laundry in, but I'm not going to do it. I'm working.
Considered a walk when the sun came out and the leaves were shimmering, but I didn't. Head in the game. Take photos. Get ready to list. Wonder if I have enough. Wonder why I bought so much. The usual.
Work, work, work. Pleasant work, for the most part. But work. No goofing off.
Making a little collage out of ornament boxes and taking photos? Many photos? That wasn't goofing off. Give me a little time and I'll think of a reason how it was useful. Work-related. Nothing's coming to mind at the moment. Something will come to me. But right now I've got to get back to work.
Your pictures are worth all the sacrifices you have made. Since you're at work I hope you are following the proper dress code of yoga pants and a sweatshirt with frayed cuffs.

Khakis, t-shirt, cardigan - plus a fresh haircut - I am on top of my game!

1) Practicing with the camera
2) Testing color combinations
3) Potential Christmas card photo
4) Reference photos for future book
Seems like a pretty productive day! 8+)

Definitely a productive day. Staging the perfect photo is hard work. I'm completely smitten with your putz house covered in mini ornaments.
