June 12 of 12

Read about the 12 of 12 phenomenon at Chad's site. Very cool thing to do.

And a very difficult thing to do on a workday. I can't imagine anyone being interested in work photos of an accounting manager. So my pics are before and after work, not during.

Let's begin, shall we?


6:41 a.m. Orange juice.





6:48 a.m. Shower. A wet, sleepy, scruffy Matterdays.





7:24 a.m. Ironing my shirt for work.





7:52 a.m. Driving to work, crossing Interstate 5 on Denny Way.





8:02 a.m. Parking sticker firmly implanted on car window.





8:02 a.m. Cascade Park across the street, where I had lunch with Long Story Longer.





5:18 p.m. Heading home. One of the evil ParkingTicketMobiles of the Seattle Police Department. I swear they work on commission.





5:22 p.m. Heading back up Denny Way to Capitol Hill.





5:44 p.m. The pond in our backyard. After a LONG stretch of cold, grey, rainy weather (honestly - unusual for Seattle at this time of year) - the sun came out.





6:19 p.m. Did I mention I'm taking B-12 supplements to feel human again?





7:26 p.m. A brief hiatus from the "Week's Worth of Dinners" - Scott's working late tonight. So it was leftover lasagna for me.





8:12 p.m. Doggie time. Stoli came in to lick my plate clean. Time to settle in for the night with the pups.







That's it. Happy 12 of 12!!!!

Great set this month. Sun in Seattle? What?!

I'm also really enjoying your "weeks worth of dinners." Thanks for sharing!

If you live in Capitol Hill, that means you're very close to the Six Arms Brewery, host of the Daveattle 2 Blogger Meet! Sweet! See you on the 21st then!!

I'm very impressed that you were with it enough to take pictures that early in the morning. Usually when there's an "early morning pic" in my 12, I've actually gone and staged it much later in the day ...

Nice set! (hee hee, I said, "nice set.")

And exactly why would you think that we wouldn't want to see all about the day of an accounting manager? You know we love you and always want to know....we have inquiring minds! And , as long as we're on the subject, isn't this weather something AWESOME!

Sleepy, scruffy Matt still looks cute! ;)

So you actually have to put on parking sticker on your car window? Hmmm...never heard or seen this before.

Oh, those ticket mobiles look like something out of the Transformers.

I like your facial expression with the vitamins. You could totally sell B-12 supplements ;)

I love your reflection in your car window with the parking sticker. You're so so serious!!!

Seattle...wet???? Nah!

Hope the B12 are helping! And isn't it helpful of the pups to help you clean the plates after you eat ;-)

I think I look roughly the same in the morning, especially those where I have to get up 30 minutes earlier to shower (instead of the night before). It's very much working on autopilot, so I know how you feel [hug]
