TWiP: Purple!

This Week in Pictures, Week 38, 2019

There is not an overabundance of purple in my life. I more of a green girl, and I appreciate little bits of any color that looks nice alongside green. But purple? I have nothing against it, but I don’t go out of my way to surround myself with it. So, it’s always a surprise when my weekly mosaic ends up featuring is prominently, like it does this week.

I took a lot of pictures at night, and they led to this plethora of purple. I like it. Nice change of pace. 💜

So, what is This Week in Pictures?

It’s a roundup of the microblogging I’ve done on Flickr and Instagram all week. This includes photos I shot for Project 365 and any other extra images I may have posted.

Photos taken with 📷 (Canon EOS 80D) or 📱 (Samsung Galaxy S7).

Ready? Cast your mind back to this time last week…

Saturday

257/365
I made some paper “lanterns” out of battery-powered tea lights and printer paper, but they didn’t stay together very well. They all popped open after this photo. At least I had a few minutes of cozy Saturday morning “candle” light at my desk 🙂

Sunday

258/365
The Great Swamp is still mainly green, but there are a few signs of impending fall, if you look for them.

Monday

259/365
I’ve had these things flickering nonstop on the windowsill in my bedroom since Friday night! I thought the batteries would have died by now. I’m impressed.

Tuesday

260/365
My 16-year-old has taken to dragging me out of the house in the evenings to go to random places. Tonight it was a local park at dusk.

Mid-afternoon refueling.

Thursday

I’m the weirdo who spends her own money to have a t-shirt made and be a walking billboard for her Day Job. I can’t help it if I’m a t-shirt addict, and my coworker designed a snazzy sticker, and I was powerless to resist putting it on a cozy cotton tee, can I?? 🤪

Happiness is a clean desk, candlelight, and peppermint green tea.

Friday

263/365
It’s Squeegee Season, which is a heck of a lot better than Ice Scraper Season, but not nearly as nice as Just Get in the Car and Go Season.
