Comes in Handy {2}

I have a good pic of my grampy but I wanted to wait to post it. So I decided to bore you all with my hands. Originally, I thought I would use this one:
But, even though I liked it, and, have you ever tried to get a good shot of your own hand using manual focus? I can attest that it is definitely not the easiest subject I have photographed. But, as I said, there was a but. I remembered the fan on my facebook page suggested, "different ages, professions, etc." So even though I mainly use my hands to type away at a keyboard or click a mouse or write with a pen at my profession, I decided to take a photograph of my hands in action, not at my profession, but, at {you guessed it} my hobby.

I had to use a mirror for this one, but I do pretty much love the results, even though it is by far not the best of my photographs.

smile! =my definition.

So yesterday I was munching on some good ole' (they weren't actually old, FYI) m&ms  and I was thinking, hey, it would be cool to draw a sun with a yellow one in the middle and photo shoot it for my next blog post! So....that's what I did. and then, writing this post, I decided to do a little research on yellow, the color that makes me instantly happy. Wikipedia's article on it, to my utter dismay, (!) basically DOWNED the color. Instead of saying, "Yellow is the color that makes Audrey instantly happy and bubbly," it said, " yellow has traditionally been associated with jaundice and cowardice." That would definitely not be my definition, but then again, I haven't written a dictionary. Just read a lot of it and come up with my own definitions for things over the years, as this blog post can definitely attest to. Wow, I just used the word "definitely" a lot more than I was expecting to. Anyways, I hope you all have a Audrey definition of the word "yellow" day...as in, I hope you have an instantly bright, optimistic, and incredibly happy day.
