This weekend was my first time to audition for a place in 9 years...something I've waited to do until my kids were older and we were in one location for longer. Which inspired this shot.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05022023043718407104noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11957052.post-44219218163383518352013-07-14T20:22:23.466+01:002013-07-14T20:22:23.466+01:00Thank you Jade.

You get to a new place, its new and exciting. You just about enjoy a place, and then start slowing disengaging and getting ready for the next move. This is the first time we dont have to move, and yet I'm already talking about 'dream locations' for the next place.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05022023043718407104noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11957052.post-11078920909443975602013-07-14T19:12:43.527+01:002013-07-14T19:12:43.527+01:00I totally understand on the feeling of waiting, I ...I totally understand on the feeling of waiting, I have moved around so much in the last 5 years and know that in two another big move is coming it is hard to take the time to make the present wonderful.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05022023043718407104noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11957052.post-4883853251928836632013-07-14T16:50:47.199+01:002013-07-14T16:50:47.199+01:00Another gorgeous photo, Bonnie xxAnother gorgeous photo, Bonnie xxAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05022023043718407104noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11957052.post-79682280135732979982013-07-13T14:14:59.023+01:002013-07-13T14:14:59.023+01:00Beautiful!

(I just read another post from someone about how they were tired of "waiting for things." In a military life, you are always waiting for things, LIFE happens while you are waiting. So I don't wait anymore, I just live.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05022023043718407104noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11957052.post-70045055244421918112013-07-13T13:20:42.105+01:002013-07-13T13:20:42.105+01:00Beautiful portrait!
