February Photo A Day Round-Up

Happy March first bargainistas!  Last month I ditched my BlackBerry and became immediately addicted to my iPhone and more specifically, to Instagram. I started fellow blogger FatMumSlim's February Photo A Day Challenge halfway through the month, and I did my best to play catch-up.  Unfortunately, I'm missing a few of the days.  Nonetheless, here is a glimpse into my February via my iphone/instagram..  The photos are in no particular order.



WORDS.

HANDS.
[gel mani before Vegas]

STRANGER.
[Betty Boop slippers tucked into Apple Bottom jeans in the mall in public. Some people just shouldn't leave the house.]

SOMETHING YOU ATE.

BLUE.

CLOSET.

 HANDWRITING.

MAKES YOU HAPPY.

SOMETHING YOU HATE TO DO.
[don't even bother leaving me one. I won't check it.]

HEARTS.
[Vday Card from Momma Bear]


SOMETHING NEW.

[I c!hecked my mail and hit the jackpot this day! Feb Birchbox, elf mineral make-up package, KiKi La Rue dress, new Us Weekly, Fitness mag and Vday Cards!]


PHONE.
[work phone I never use]

SHOES.
[shoe shopping for Vegas]

SUN.
[bright Vegas sun]


YOUR VIEW TODAY.

WHERE YOU WORK.

GREEN.
[SkinnyTaste cilantro lime tilapia tacos]
SOMETHING YOU'RE LISTENING TO.
[My rickety fan and TV (The Challenge was on)]
TIME.
[my living room oversized clock]

I loved playing along and it was a great exercise to work your creative side of your brain.  It was also so much fun to see how others interpret the prompt each day. I highly recommend you play along because the March Challenge starts today!  I am in, are you?

I hate checking voicemail! I never do. Right now, I have about 45 voicemails. I wish people would just text!

Chelsea said...

Aimee L said...

Tara said...

someone needs to tell that woman that flo rida sang about apple bottom jeans and boots wit da fur....not apple bottom jeans and slippers. any sort of slippers. heh

Lauren said...

It must have been so hard to pick a food photo for February since you post so many great ones... I want you to be my eating partner. Is there such a thing? Sure, why not!

I started off February strong and totally crashed and burned. Here's hoping I'm better at the March challenge. I'm trying to think of what I'm going to snap a pic of for "up". Hmmm...

Heidi said...

i just posted this almost same blog post last night!

Pamela said...

Love this!! Bear is too cute! All the food looks SO good!

Kodi said...

Clearly Crystal Lynn said...

Love the shoes, birchbox & that Calendar! I'm totally committed to try and do the same photo-a-day challenge this month..

Cori H. said...

I love seeing everyone's pictures from the challenge. I missed a couple of days last month, but I still played along. My goal is to actually do all of the March challenge!

Christine-Chioma said...

what a cool idea! thanks for sharing!

Kelly said...

I love these pics! Isn't instagram like the greatest thing ever?? Speaking of iPhone apps - you should download the Viggle app. Seeing as you are a DVR junkie like myself, you can actually gain award points just by watching TV. Once you rack up enough points you can trade them in for gift cards. Basically, you get paid for watching tv. Pretty awesome.

Love seeing these all together! I started doing the Photo a Day challenge and abandoned it halfway through the month. Some days are more exciting than others. I loved seeing everyone's dinners but didn't really care about everyone's buttons. ha! It's a fun challenge though--I guess I have another 10 hours or so to decide whether or not I'm gonna do March!

MiniMeStyle said...

What a great post! I found your blog a couple weeks ago and absolutely love it. :) And I also love that someone hates voicemail as much as I do. I just let mine fill up, and don't ever delete the messages, rendering it basically useless. *evil laugh*

Raven said...

Im so playing! do you only play this game on instagram?

Jayme and Mendi said...

We're so excited that you shared this today! Count us in for March!! Should be interesting. ;)

Jamie said...

Amber said...

I've been meaning to do this challenge, but I don't have an iPhone, so no Instagram! :(

Kimberly Sneed said...

have instagram...just followed! i'm @anightowlblog. LOVING the #photoaday challenges and finding that i'm connecting with so many fun people and bloggers!

Amber said...

I am the WORST when it comes to listening to voicemails. I always tell my family to either txt me, or hang up on my voicemail. I have a phone that tells me when people call, so I don't understand the point of voicemails. And now that my 65yr old grandma can txt?? Voicemail is pointless :)
