Scavenger List January 2012

Well, oh dear me, I didn’t start this list until last week!  I don’t really know why but all of a sudden last week I realised how far we were into January and I hadn’t made a start!  I’m sitting here scratching my head wondering where on earth January has gone!!!

My photos this month are pretty ordinary and I’ve just done the last few around the house to get it finished as we have a busy weekend coming up attending my niece’s wedding - (I’ll post about this after the event).

 

So here goes folks – prepare to be bored stiff!

First up is ‘soft’ – this is my lovely fleece/furry throw which I snuggle up in when watching TV on cold evenings.

Second coincidentally is ‘2’ – I forgot I had already taken a photo for this and did another one so this time you have 2 for the price of 1.

The first one I took was of a neighbour’s camper van which is called Duetto – I’m assuming it is because it sleeps 2 people – so a bit of quick thinking on my part I guessed it must mean 2!

The other subject for ‘2’ is a birthday card I made for my great-nephew who will be 2 this year.

 

‘Blur’ is the next photo – why is it when you don’t want to take a blurred photo you can achieve one very easily but when you need one it takes a few attempts!  I took this ‘blur’ by moving the camera as I pressed the shutter button!  It’s a silk flower arrangement, our family name coat of arms in the left hand frame and one of our wedding photos on the right.

My interpretation of ‘in season’ is a bit odd I suppose – it’s a photo I took from my back garden of a lovely red sky at night scene taken through the winter trees which have lost their leaves – hence the subject ‘in season’!  I couldn’t resist the beautiful early evening sky.

‘In my bathroom’ – easy peasy just went upstairs and took this:

‘Mess’ – another easy one – there’s always a mess of some sort in our house!  This is a pile of craft stuff and other bits and pieces I need to sort out when I get the time!  I don’t how anyone can live in a house with absolutely nothing out of place – I’d feel so uncomfortable – that’s a good excuse for being a messy person isn’t it?

‘Information’ – a sign explaining the parking restrictions in our local Tesco car park.

‘Company’ – very boring – a photo of the ‘Clarks’ brand name on the shoe shop over at Weavers’ Wharf.

‘Warning’ – this is a notice at the side of the river which runs through Kidderminster warning of danger.

 

‘Odd’ – I decided this meant an odd quantity so took a photo of three things on the bookcase on our landing.  From left to right we have: an old ornament of a little girl and her dog which belonged to hubby’s grandmother: a little Spanish house brought back from Tenerife for us by my father when he went on holiday there with my sister and her family: a money box which looks like a bundle of pound notes – there were two of these in my parents’ house from when I was a little girl – I have one and my sister has one now – although she did buy another to go with hers at a car boot sale but I think it was numbered differently.  I can’t remember where my mam and dad bought these.

 

‘In the distance’ – a scene from my front door over to the local common.

‘Entrance’ – my front door!  Two fat ladies – 88!

 

 

That’s it then folks – January completed in record time.  Can’t wait for the February list and really must make more effort next time.

Jordiegirl!
