Checking things off the life list

As part of my ongoing effort to personalize the Robbins Family Living Quarters, a few weeks ago (with a little inspiration from Dooce) I went through the process of developing, framing, and hanging some pictures I had taken. It turned out really well.



Some time ago I was making a list of "wants" (like "I want to get married", "I want to own a winery", "I want MSU to beat U of M in a football game that isn't controversial and therefor completely discredited" - that kind of thing). And one of the things on my list was to fill my home with my own photography.



I can't tell you how accomplished it feels to check items off this list. Plus it feels pretty great to have my house feel more and more like a home - like a family actually lives here - every day.

Hey. I took off what I wrote to you on my blog by mistake. Feel free to email me at otie23@aol.com. Would love to know if you finished up your class and how things are going...

Best,
