With inspiration from my dear sister-in-law, Rachel, I embark on this adventure - capturing an image every day for a year both to have for myself and to share with you. My hope is that through this effort, I will "keep peace in the noisy confusion of life" - taking time to notice the small things, celebrate the big things, and more fully appreciate the gift of each new day. Of course, I had every intention of beginning this on January 1st - but when that day came and went without a blog, Rachel assured me that this project can begin on any day. After a slow start, I really hope I can pull it off - and that you'll enjoy it!

Day 26 - February 4: Boden Mania

Today the stars were aligned.  How else do you explain my family leaving me alone on the same day my favorite catalogue is hosting a warehouse sale at the Hynes Convention Center in Boston?  Douglas and Stuart were skiing in New Hampshire with the Boy Scouts and Lane was off with her Saturday ski group.  I decided the only way to drown my lonely sorrows was to subject myself to the frenzy of hundreds of women (and a few crazy men) pawing through mounds of clothing in a cavernous hall in search of the ultimate bargain.  I left with a few things I couldn't live without (it's Boden afterall!) and then went in search of my other guilty pleasure - a Starbucks tall, non-fat, decaf latte. The perfect ending to the perfect self consumed day.
