Comments— Very smooth going this week. It is easy to maintain a project when you are not leaving the house. It is all clock work. I get dressed in the morning. Tripp takes my photo every afternoon, and then I post it on Instagram the next day. I know that I should actually be posting it on the day, but I like to think of it as Alaskan lag time. Back in the day, newsreels were delivered overnight to Alaska by plane and then broadcast the day after. I’m kind of doing the same thing. But the only people who know this are the half a dozen people reading this document. It is our little secret.

Comments— I have three comments this week. One, Kato, my orange cat, has decided that he is now participating the project. He runs outside with us and immediately works his way into the photo shoot. Two, I fully realize how knowing that I am going to have my picture taken every day has upped the maintenance and does affect what I wear everyday. Three, I feel on top of this project right now and that always feels good.

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- 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
I am surprised in some ways by how long it took me to finally catch up on the documentation of this project. If I had my way, I would sew and sew and sew clothes. Lately, I like to make a new piece and then sew pieces that work with the new piece, so that a complete outfit evolves from the first decision. For example, I make a tunic and then I make the tights to go with it, and they both work with the new scarf I just finished. This is different from the beginning when I was really making things because I did not have them. For example I needed to make pants. Now, I have pants so I can be more creative in my making decisions.
