I Always Feel Like Somebody's Watching Me (124/365)

"Elwood Blues: It's 106 miles to Chicago, we got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark, and we're wearing sunglasses.
'Joliet' Jake Blues: Hit it."

The Blues Brothers (Dan Aykroyd, John Belushi, John Landis - director, 1980)

TIME: 4:15 PM
PLACE: Dashboard of the Jeep
SUBJECT: HandsomeHusband's Sunglasses

I think I missed the one-third point of this Project 365.  By my calculations, that point occurred on day 121.6667. *wink*  Wow, I find it hard to fathom that a third of this year has already come and gone.  Time is just speeding by...Guess that's what happens when you turn 42!  

I spent quite a bit of time in my car today.  Driving StellaDella to school, meeting up with my sister at Kohl's to spent my $10 certificate, heading to an appointment, running to the grocery store to pick up fixings for dinner and for what I need to make for Teacher's Appreciation Food Day on Thursday, then I pick up SD, go home to let the dog out, back out to pick up DramaQueen for her doctor's appointment and finally head home for good.  HH had left his sunglasses on the Jeep's dash and there they were, staring at me the entire time I was in the car.  About 4 blocks before we arrived home, I snapped this picture.  It seemed appropriate.

It's a neat shot - I like how you can see your reflection in the glasses.

I very much like this photo - and the quote which goes with it.

I know what you mean about the days passing. I started HUGH AND CAMELLIA at the beginning of February and that's about the same length of time.

Whatever is 'Teacher's Appreciation Food Day?'

Mary Sharpe - It's Teacher Appreciation week at the kid's school this week. At our school, the parents of the various grade bring in food for the teachers each day. Thursday is Appetizer day for the 4th & 5th graders. I'm making my Sicilian grandmother's meatball and sauce recipe for them.

breanna - Thanks!

Dot O - Do you remember the video for it? The good old days, when MTV had actual music videos!

Michelle - There is a flickr group called My Thirty Clicks that has "REFLECT" for the theme for the month. Check it out, it has a lot of inspiration.
