Photo a day

In 2024 I attempted to take one “good” photo per day and post it here. I made it to May 5th. I honestly don’t recall why I stopped. I’d venture to guess that life happened. There’d already been many times when multiple days would go by and I’d have to cull through photos to find. “good” photo for the days on which I’d neglected to post a photo, and that just became a hassle. Plus I think I picked the wrong year and phase in life to commit to this project. 2024 was rough with losing a job, Maly graduating and getting ready for college, starting a new job, and all of the other life events.
