Nantucket Island, Wordless Wednesday

Wordless Wednesday: Wind

I thought it would be fun to do “Wordless Wednesday” posts for a while.  If you aren’t familiar with the concept, it’s when bloggers post a photograph with no words to explain it on their blog. The idea is that the photo itself says so much that it doesn’t need any description.  (Obviously, today is an exception to the wordless rules, because I wanted to introduce the series.)  I really want to spend more time thinking about the shots I’m taking and not just pressing buttons, so I thought dedicating one day to photographs only might make me pay a little more attention…plus, let’s be honest, it saves me writing time!

For the next few weeks, I’m going to dedicate Wordless Wednesday posts to my favorite things about Nantucket, so hopefully you’ll get to see some good pictures of things that make this faraway land so wonderful.  In honor of the ridiculous wind we have been having (seriously, we’re running out of food!) I thought I’d start with our wind turbine.

Next week, no words, and in the meantime, let me know what you think about this concept.  Boring or interesting?  Would you rather have words?

    I like it! But you know me, I’m pretty easy to please. 🙂 I say go for it.

    What do you mean you are running out of food? Are the ferries docked because of the wind?

      Yep. If you click on the link, it’s a picture of the empty bread aisle at Stop & Shop with a sign explaining that they haven’t been receiving shipments because of the ferry cancellations.

It's that time again... Girl Scout cookies! And this year we have two selling. Help them meet their cookies sales goals by ordering online. 

If you live nearby, choose girl delivery and help get cookie boxes out of our garage... Otherwise we're going to be giving them Girl Scout  Cookies for birthday and Christmas presents all year.

Bus stop selfie with Nora. This week she moved from her tiny charter school with only 18 eighth graders to the public middle school with over 200. And now she rides the bus.

The charter school wasn't challenging her enough, has a huge percentage of students who are disruptive in the classroom, and has been having trouble keeping teachers. Last year she loved it. But this year it was one thing after another, so right before Thanksgiving she and I went to go tour our neighborhood  middle school, and she immediately wanted to make the switch.

We've never had a kid in public school and I was nervous about how the transition would go from such a small school to a big one, but so far she's loving it and is glad she decided to move schools. It helps that she knows kids there already from her dance team. Hopefully she'll still be happy when she starts getting homework. Coming from a no homework school that may be a shock to us all.

Halloween 2022. Two witches, a murderous cat, and a creepy Victorian doll. 

Zara's costume was my favorite this year - Nora did her makeup and she wore my flower girl dress from my mom and step-dad's wedding. She might have worn it better. 😂
