i am a late bloomer. on the weekend i usually don't get to my computer for fun until friday night or saturday night after the children are in bed, i'm in my p.j.s, i've taken my make-up off, and the house is darkened and quiet. my google reader pops up with all of my fun photography acquaintences who are participating in the 52 week project this year. i look at everyone's photos for the week that they have posted on the due date: fridays. then on saturday i think about the theme of the week and grapple with what to do for my own photo. i told you...i'm a late bloomer. here it is saturday night and this is my image for quiet. it is just as i described: me, at my computer, saturday night after the children are in bed, i'm in my p.j.s, i've taken my make-up off, and the house is darkened and quiet.

I am late getting to read this post. But I love this shot - perfect take on the theme. Besides my post on quiet in the car, one other quiet time is late at night at the computer - I cherish that time!
P.S. I also read your post above about your valentine luncheon and wanted to ask where you got your kitchen table? We're on the hunt for a new one and that is the style I'm looking for.

Love love love this! So great how the screen illuminates your face. :) (As I type this while sitting on the couch, watching the Grammys, enjoying my quiet time.)

this is awesome. one of my favourite times of the day - quiet and doing my own thing. :)

I'm always late with posting too, lately. I get it. Funny, I have a picture similar to this on my blog (but not for this week).

Great take on quiet.
I do this also, and I am sooo tired but I keep saying "just one more". Doesn't matter if it's blogs or games.

this could have been a photo of me. :) I think you pretty much just captured most of the blogging women in this world! And I don't care if you are a late bloomer...just glad you joined us!

I love this image. And I'm betting all of us can relate to it. ;)
