It’s Going // Week 50

12.14.14 By Lindsey G Leave a Comment

I’m not sure how I am surviving these last few weeks of the year to be completely honest. It feels like a rollercoaster ride, work, editing, sick kids, never ending baskets of laundry, lunches that are missing key things like sandwiches because mom bought the wrong type of turkey.  There has to be other people out there that feel the same way about the holidays. Right? If you walked up to me right now and asked, “Hey, how’s it going?” I’m not even going to look up from my beer and tell you “it’s going” as in, I am barely holding it together please don’t say another word until I am at least half way through this hefeweizen.  Trust me I know how fortunate I am, I have a j-o-b which affords me the luxury of buying those heavyweight stock cards I wanted, almost all the gifts on my kids list and still have enough for a blow out. I know how lucky we all are yet I still grumble come December, so here’s where little square photos come in. If I can slow down just long enough to take a photo, I can muffle out all the chaos and temporarily forget the frenetic feeling of the holidays.

So what did I capture in those few moments?

Shopping with empty aisles (the key is to go during dinner time.)

Fresh cut trees. (my photos are still on an undeveloped roll) here’s a snapshot on the phone the night we got our tree. note: 2 weeks later the tree looks exactly the same.

MODCHIK BLOG (2010-2020)

What began as a blog about an unexpected pregnancy at midlife morphed into a (sometimes) steady stream of private thoughts made public. I've moved from blogs to photography and now astrology. ... more about the journey here.
