IT'S MY BIRTHDAY! Mother Nature decided that the perfect present was over a foot of snow. I literally had to dig my way out of the house this morning when I tried (and failed) to go to the gas station. So I put on my new dress and made my way down to the backyard to take pictures for 10 minutes before the wind knocked my tripod over and I decided maybe it was time to come back inside.

I'm starting a new photo project this year. Following tradition, I did a 365 in 2010 and again in 2017. Now I'm following in 2011 me's footsteps and embarking on another 52 Weeks Project! This time is simple: no using my phone, and I must be in every picture. I'm excited to get back in front of the camera again, and be excited about self-portraits and getting to know myself again.

Cheers to a new year, new projects, and new adventures.
