instagram: lunch is

so..

i used to pride myself on being good about catching those 'little moments' in life.

the dude sleeping on the couch with a car on his face,

the way he silently played outside by himself..

and now (much like ANY silence from him)

that tendency to snap often everyday has dwindled.

i started to notice it as i was catching up on project life.

so i thought in may i'd do the fatmumslim photo a day.

figured then at least no matter what i'd have 7 days worth of pictures.

i think i got to day.. i dunno.. 8 & the prompt was pink.

i kinda thought to myself 'wth am i supposed to snap for that?!'

anyone who knows me, knows i'm so NOT a pink girl.

best i came up with was baby piggies..

but as this is MY kid's piggies we are talking about..

they are OBVIOUSLY waaaayyy more white than pink.

so, ya.. that's when i lost steam with that little jaunt into photo a day.

the prompts became increasingly difficult for me

partly because i kept forgetting about them..

and also because if i couldn't come up with something to snap right away, i lost interest.

don't get me wrong..

i still think it's a great idea..

but it just doesn't work for me.

i don't really care to capture a smell i love in my project life.

(mostly because i snapped a picture of my husbands cologne that makes me swoon.. and.. ya i don't really want to put that on paper.. i mean my blog is one thing.. but family scrapbook my dad may look at.. that's a whole 'nother story!)

so..

because my life is fairly mundane

(which is how i like it, cause interesting usually involves ANOTHER busted lip for the babe & the dude screaming because there is a crime-scene worthy amount of blood all over the floor!

i seriously think this kid is going for the record for consecutive busted lips, this is his 3rd in about 5 weeks)

wait.. where was i?

(i get sidetracked easily these days.. )

yea, so my life isn't that photo-worthy most days.

not unless you wanna see my sweat drenched brow

or the million & one crumbs i sweep up

or the carline, which frankly, i'm even tired of seeing..

anyways.

so the one semi-interesting thing i have in my day is lunch.

not that i do any kind of spectacular thing..

but to me, seeing what people eat for lunch is interesting enough.

i get ideas for 'everyday foods'

my lunch mostly consists of  either leftovers or fresh fruits/vegetables.

reading and/or blogging.

i've gotten into the habit of snapping pictures of it..

mostly because it's my own little carved out time for me.

(well until the dude is out for summer)

i put the babe down for a nap...

jump on the elliptical for a half hour..

then stuff my face & read.

it's sheer heaven on the backporch.

my heaven anyways..

even if it's so humid i feel like i'm standing in a sweat box,

& it's hotter than three shades of hell.

(lunch is: shrimp with tomatoes & feta, water & tess of the d'ubervilles)

so i thought about possibly asking you to join in my little adventure.

snap a picture of your lunch surroundings/activities.

at work, at home, in your car.

whatever 'lunch is' to you, snap it.

i'm on instagram... kristylynn79.

(duh, i bitched about it not being on android long enough i should be right?!)

i'm private, but just shoot me a follow request

&i'll follow ya back :)

so snap that 'lunch is' picture & upload it.

tag it with #lunchis

(lunch is: leftover lasagna soup, water & abraham lincoln vampire hunter)

i hope you'll join in.

like really really really hope.

(lunch is: turkey taco salad with gluten free tortilla chips, water, spotify & a new blog post)
