THE CAMERA TOTALLY DOES LIE

My forearm is not that big and my nose is not that small. its not easy taking a picture of oneself - but at least no-one is capturing a piece of my soul.
Off to France tomorrow - can't wait - lots to do -
hope you are all well-
ps spud still hanging on in there. i think he may have a portrait of himself in the attic

  1. Yup, photographs are seldom "as is". However, you look fabulous as usual in that picture, camera trickery has got nothing on you.

    I keep having to save bees. They keep flying in through the open window. I think they think the flowers in my curtains are real, poor things.

    Busy summer as I've taken up computer science studies but for now I'm outta the door to enjoy the summer day which is once again perfect.

    Have a wonderful time in France, and best wishes to Spud.

  4. Morning Rachel, I like this one of you. Well, yes, the forearm is a not true shape.
    Safe travels to France, busy, busy, busy.
    I am pleased to hear about Spud, I have been thinking about him. ah, Spud In The Attic, I like.
    I watched a horror show recently, about a demon who took photos of people and stole their soul in the process. Not here, and not in real life though. haha.
    I'm hanging in there.

  9. I refuse to get out the tripod and learn how to use the self timer. Thinking of Spud and the dogs we had while married, good and faithful companions.

    You look at this picture and think "Wow, my forearm looks big."
