COMMENTS– I will say that after 25 weeks of this project, I feel like I have a pretty good handle on the thing. Today, I thought about how I should also be documenting the weather. Which I suppose I can try and do. I wish I had time to make new clothes as it is always fun to add something new to my wardrobe. I am struggling to keep up with instagram out in McCarthy. My phone’s internet is not reliable and that makes it difficult. But other than that, I am staying on top of the documentation for this project.

COMMENTS—Well, dressing for sunny summer weather is so much easier than selecting garments to wear for icy temperatures or rain and drizzle. I really would like to add a skirt or two to my wardrobe. I only have three and they are getting very boring. I am doing a good job of not falling behind. The pain of going back and documenting weeks and weeks of work in May taught me a very valuable lesson. I am also trying not to be to precious about how I look. Yes. I do select what I consider to be the very best picture for the day, but I am often not happy with it. Documenting your 50th year day in and day out is often painful. I should have done this when I was 30!

COMMENTS— The light has been amazing. It was really beautiful on Thursday. Of course it is. It is Solstice! I don’t have time to be making new garments, so I am back in that make do phase at least for the summer. I have three skirts and two pairs of shorts. But you know, it really is enough. Sure, I would like to look super fancy every day, but the reality is that we don’t look super fancy every day. In fact, I am still not over the fact that I don’t actually look the same every day. What is up with that?

COMMENTS– I am feeling better about the just roll with the flow aspect of the project. Every day I wear clothing I have made, and I try and find some one who will take my photo in the middle of whatever road I am on. The weather shifts wildly out here and the garments I have made are not necessary meant for bush living, but it is what is. Sunday marked the 150th day of this project. WOW.

COMMENTS- Well, I have made it through another week. I have had an assortment of photographers which has been interesting. There is a bit of a problem with dogs showing up in the photos. I think have my McCarthy road spot figured out and now know how to instruct the photographer to simply position themselves on their spot and click away. My wardrobe could really use more McCarthy style clothes, but I am making do.

COMMENTS
The wild sunshine is making photography difficult. I have had that Lady Skater dress in my closet the whole time, but I am never compelled to wear it. I am not sure why. I made three new garments this week. A knit tunic and tights out of Chalk Line Knit from Marcy Tilton. I also finished another modified Rebecca Taylor t-shirt top out of a great multi-colored print knit. I am trying very hard not to get even a DAY behind in documenting this shit.

COMMENTS
Wow. I have finally got a system that works for this project! I am 126 days into it, and I am almost caught up. It was a huge set back to realize that I was taking the photo in a bad location for almost three months. That means I have to redo those months. Which is painful but now that I have everything dialed in I just need to keep on keeping on.

COMMENTS
This is the week I figured out that I need to be taking my photos on the ROAD. I realized this on DAY 102. The flipbook I eventually want to make needs to have the same background. I started out with a background that was close to our house and covered in snow. When the snow melted, I realized it was not a back drop that I could use. It is big huge bummer, but once I found the road, I knew that was the location. It is going to be a much better final 365 day composition. What a painful realization.
