As far as blogging goes, I've pretty much got nothin' today. But, you know, NaBlow. So I'm going to post, darn it. Even if what I write turns out to be mind-numbing:
• The wind is a constant rush through Seattle right now. Like living next to a waterfall.
• I'm knitting Max some socks. It was his idea. He picked out the yarn. He sits next to me while I'm stitching, watching as if he's at a baseball game taking in the play-by-play. It's cute.
• J.'s mom flew in today. 81 and still traveling. Zipping between San Diego, Seattle, and Brooklyn as if it were her job.
• Claire is in an anxious, slightly unbearable state. Clingy and a little whiney. All weekend she kept announcing she wasn't getting enough attention. This after a trillion rounds of Old Maid, mancala, Candy Land, etc. I like that the kid can use her words to express feelings. But I'm also pretty sure I could do nothing but play games and paint her nails all day and she'd still demand more.
• I have problem hair.
• I have not been taking photos lately, except of food and legwarmers, and this bothers me. I intend to take my camera out into the world again soon.
• I'm sorry this is so lame.
You had me at the title of this post. I started blogging just before our retirement seven months ago. We then spent the next six months traveling...4 or 5 weeks on the road in our motorhome then home for two or four weeks and back on the road again.
There was so much to photograph and write about! I was in my element! An outlet for my verbosity and my photos!
Now we've been home for nearly a month and....NOTHING. Hence my identification with your title today...MY SMALL LIFE leaves me with little that even I am interested enough in to post.
I am enjoying your day-to-day posts though. You are such a talented writer that all of your posts are worth reading!

You are never lame.

I know I'm prejudiced in a big way, but I loved every word. As usual.

I'm glad that you took on the challenge and decided to share a little bit with us every day this month!

I like reading even what you call "lame" posts!
