Me in antique by allie912

Me in antique

Yesterday I got my feet wet. Today I decided to jump off the edge of the pool. Here I am in my hotel room before setting out for a day of school visits and workshops. I chose the antique effect to commemorate 20+ years of being a librarian. Now I have discharged my obligation and await Mrs. Smith's homework assignment.
Allison, this is a lovely self-portrait and the ruffled neck on your blouse is very timely! I'm glad you decided to join us ... I have yet to fo a "full-frontal" ... maybe today will be the day!

And, no, I do NOT have a green thumb! My African Violet seems to thrive on neglect! LOL!

Oh Allison, it's so nice to meet you up close! You look lovely, but we already knew you would be, sweet, funny, glib personality and all! Thank you so much for joining the merry band here... We'll meet again around the corner in the teacher's classroom...

Thanks for the lovely comment, Allison! I was just reflecting on how this 365 has morphed since we started on January 1st ... I went back through my early photos (boy, have I gotten better - LOL!). There were very few comments back then, and YOU were my *first* 365 friend!

I would give you and your self-protrait an "A" for sure.

Wonderful portrait!!! When I was little, I wanted to be a librarian - I've always loved books and organizing! I still like libraries a lot! :-)

Hi Allison! Good to see you :) And big congrats to you for your 20 years. I wanted to be a librarian once and was steered in a different direction.
