About Project 365

I have decided to get back into my photography. I have boycotted my hobby for awhile because I miss the meditating atmosphere of a dark room. (Maybe I just miss the fumes!?!?) When I went to school I can remember spending very long evenings in the dark room and having a sense of accomplishment and creativity! Since I have made the switch to digital photography, I rarely edit the photos I take. With this project I will have different types of photos. All photos will be taken with my iPhone and will not be edited. Some will be normal everyday pics and some artistic in nature, but all will be a little part of my day. Everyday for a year! Here's to going out and finding the creativity again...

Before I Was A Dog Mom 

Before I was a Dog Mom: 
I made and ate hot meals unmolested. 
I had unstained, unfurred clothes. 
I had quiet conversations on the phone, 
even if the doorbell rang. 

Before I was a Dog Mom: 
I slept as late as I wanted 
and never worried about how late I got to bed 
or if I could get into my bed. 

Before I was a Dog Mom: 
I cleaned my house every day. 
I never tripped over toys, stuffies, chewies 
or invited the neighbor's dog over to play. 

Before I was a Dog Mom: 
I didn't worry if my plants, cleansers, 
plastic bags, toilet paper, soap or deodorant 
were poisonous or dangerous. 

Before I was a Dog Mom: 
I had never been peed on, 
pooped on, drooled on, 
chewed on or pinched by puppy teeth. 

Before I was a Dog Mom: 
I had complete control of my thoughts, 
my body and mind. 
I slept all night without sharing the covers or pillow. 

Before I was a Dog Mom:
I never looked into big, soulful eyes and cried.
I never felt my heart break into a million pieces
when I couldn't stop a hurt.
I never knew something so furry and four-legged
could affect my heart so deeply.

Before I was a Dog Mom:
I had never held a sleeping puppy
just because I couldn't put it down.
I had never gotten up in the middle of the night
every 10 minutes to make sure all was well.
I didn't know how warm it feels inside
to feed a hungry puppy.
I didn't know that something so small
could make me feel so important.

Before I was a Dog Mom:
I had never known the warmth, the joy,
the love, the heartache, the wonderment or the
satisfaction
of being A Dog Mom.
