Photography Challenge Day 1

Self Portrait

A friend set me a 28 day photography challenge on Facebook this morning.  It's not normally my thing but I have been in the photography doldrums for months so decided to give it a go.  If nothing else it will give me the chance to test my new phone camera although looking at the challenge subjects, I suspect I will use the Canon as well.  

I had a very late night last night.  Light off at 4am!  Woke just after 7am.  Got up and pottered for an hour but realised I was still really tired so went back to bed and slept till 11.50am!  I couldn't believe it.  Half the day gone.  I hate that!  Tonight I will attempt sleep much earlier, even if I don't feel tired.  Either way I have a early rise tomorrow as the pool is fixed so I can start my hydrotherapy again.  That should hopefully tire me out and re-establish the improved sleep pattern I had just started to enjoy.

As tends to be the case when half the day is gone, not much else was achieved.  Haven't even picked up my crochet hook.  Did a tiny bit of painting, nothing much and not worth sharing.  I did cook a lovely dinner of sirloin steak with Diane sauce.  The last of our "official" festive dining.  Back to auld claes and porridge tomorrow :-))
