I thought I’d try a themed 12 of 12 again for a change. I probably could have done better, but I succeeded in getting 12 anyway. The word of the day is window.

I awoke to a rainy day.

I like the play of light and lines on this shot out the sliding glass door.

I followed P to drop her car off for repairs this morning.

On bus duty (again! quelle coïncidence!), from beneath the school secretary’s breast cancer awareness umbrella, I took this shot of my principal reading the email response I’d just sent him from my BlackBerry.

My two good friends in guidance were evidently getting a kick out of me with my pink umbrella.

It’s final exam week (summer here I come!). I stepped outside of my French III class and grabbed this shot through the transom.

Bear’s-eye view of students headed home after finals.

Between exams and a meeting, I ran out to Subway to grab a sandwich. Happily, the skies had cleared.

When I got home, M was waiting for me, perfectly placed for the promised “after” picture to follow last month’s “before”. We love our new walkway and wall.

This was a special day for me, as I got to do my first solo babysitting of my almost-three-year-old step-granddaughter and 7-month-old step-grandson. (I was somewhat terrified, as I’ve gone 45 years without changing a diaper. The record still holds.)

M was excited to use her new sidewalk chalk, and I took advantage of the moment to incorporate my theme.

I had a good pic of M and the dog looking out the window as P arrived home to relieve me, but it was unflattering so I’m not including it. As I drifted off to sleep hours later, I remembered that I’d forgotten all about the 12 of 12, and asked P to grab my camera and take this final pic for me. (Thank you for humoring me, darling.)
