I’ve been working hard this year to try to regain control of the chaos that has become my life. Things are still way out of hand but today I decided to tackle my photos. I gathered up all of the SD cards that I use for my cameras, moved all of the photos and movies onto my external hard drive, backed them up on my other external hard drive, and they are in the process of being copied to “the cloud.”
Big deal, right? Yeah, kinda. There were 4,539 files on the SD cards. 4,539 files! No wonder I feel overwhelmed! I do organize my photos at the end of each year and some of the photos I copied today have probably already been copied as part of the year-end process, but who knows? Although I haven’t been able to keep up with my blog lately (I swear, I’m going to get back to it!), I have created our annual photo book each year since 2007. While I’m continuing to get my act together, here is the 2011 photo book, which will fill in some of the blanks.
The photos I took today were of soccer, soccer, and more soccer. Aliya’s team won 2-0, with an awesome penalty kick by Aliya, right over the wall of Franklin players in the goal. Norah has really gotten into playing this season…much better than crying last season because nobody was giving her the ball. Adlani wasn’t sure if he wanted to play this season, but he decided to go for it. He told me yesterday that goalie might be his favorite position (“you don’t have to run around a lot”) but I think he may have changed his mind after today’s game.
