On The Mend

taken:
day nineteen

I'm finally getting back in the swing of things. My fever took a turn for the worse last week and became a 6 day fever and a trip to urgent care on the 4th of July. By that time I was exhausted, had gurgling in my lungs with each breath and couldn't bare one more day not knowing what was going on. It turned out that I had bronchitis with a secondary bronchial infection. I walked out of urgent care with 3 prescriptions and a huge sense of relief. Now I'm on the mend and feeling sooooo much better!

Because I felt so miserable and had no creative energy whatsoever, I hadn't touched my camera for several days. I missed out on 8 days of my summer project. Bummer, but it's ok. That's just life, I tell myself. So I'm picking up here on day 19.

This is a pretty purple prairie clover that my youngest son and I came across on a little walk that we took at the ball field during my oldest son's baseball practice. We saw many flowing wild flowers along the walking trail. It was so fun! My youngest son even asked if he could take some photos too. Lately he enjoys practicing how to use the manual focus on my camera. It makes my heart brim with pride that he's interested in something that I love. I hope he continues to enjoy learning about photography.
