12 of 12, June 2015 Edition

My 42nd “12 of 12!” A somewhat coincidental number. At least in a few days it will be. But I’m being vague.

The 12 of 12 Challenge was created by Chad Darnell and picked up from a number of random bloggers who then linked back to him and vice versa. Chad stopped doing the 12 of 12 links in December of 2011, but passed the torch to someone else who sadly hasn’t been keeping up with it. So as always, I’m giving my shout-out to Blobby of Blobby’s Blog as he is the one who inspired me to do it. And still does.

All pictures were taken with my iPhone 6.

I woke up late, and then felt panicked and rushed until about 4PM today. I’ve been behind on getting artwork completed for upcoming appointments. So I wasn’t really focused on taking pictures. Which is unusual for me, but par for the course when I’m frantic.

1) 10:57 AM: This light. Ugh. Takes forever. But I prefer to make a left turn into traffic at a light instead of a right across traffic with no light.
