Making Memories (this one in Brooklyn), 2011

I've been working on cultivating a few new habits lately, good habits, thanks to the blog named habit. Are you familiar with it? It's about making memories.

I want to tell you more about my experience with habit so far, but I'm so sleepy (yes, it is 3pm) and have too much else to do, so it's going to have to wait. Until then, you should head over and take a peek.

I'll be there along with a long list of others documenting special moments in their days. Each person in their own unique way. You'll find me on the posts dated November 14, 15, and 16.

I hope you are enjoying this autumn afternoon moving too quickly into evening, wherever you are.

Take care,
Denise

    Oh I love Habit! I was featured on there a couple of times too, though I haven't read it in a while. Thank you for the reminder. Your posts are lovely.

    You always catch onto things first (like Pinterest, before I had ever heard of it). Is it because you're in the Bay area I wonder?

    I like all those snippets on Habit - some of them individually so important to their contributors, the saddest and happiest moments, but together they add up to something more mysterious and fleeting.

    Yes, I think I've visited that site before.
    I particularly liked your November 15.

    Thanks for sharing that.
    I'm planning (stressing) about my menu for Thanksgiving and that was a needed reminder to chill....

    I like Habit. I've come across it before, and I think it's really neat. I've been trying to form a few new habits myself. Good luck with yours.

    big fan of Habit.
    I am struggling a bit; but holding onto some things. I try not to be too hard on myself when I have the false starts.

    wishing you a most wonderful thanksgiving feast with friends and loved ones.

    Right on with Habit! Wish I could make a daily picture and thought one of my own habits, but am struggling enough with words right now.

    I've always thought that the pictures you use to accompany your writing would be perfect for habit. I'm so glad they opened up the site this month and that your pictures/words were included. I'm so far behind on blog reading but I must make an effort to catch up on habit.

    Thanks, everyone! It was a fun month. Today the habit blog shows November 30 images, the last day of the month. Now to move forward with new habits of my own.
