Team Up Thursday- Work-

We are once again joining Melody and Megan for Team Up Thursday.  Amy and I both had every intention of keeping up with it this summer...well...as you can see, we both took a break...AAAAALLLLL summer.  Now we are back and ready to go.

The theme for this week was "Work"

 

Amy's sweet photo is on top.

Well the monsoon we had this week kept me from getting the shot I originally had in mind!  So, I reached into the archives ;)  Yes, I know I’ve shared photos of my grandparents before.  What can I say, they are my heroes.  But they truly work their tails off!  Every morning granddad is off to feed the cattle, shown here.  And of course there is the garden, the land, the creek, and all the other critters (wildlife my grandmother feeds) and all the things that entails.  At 91 years young, I believe the work keeps them going!

I LOVE how Amy loves her grandparents.  I hope that someday soon I will get to meet them. She is so smart and blessed to get all these photos she has of them  What a treasure.

My photo is of me and yoga...yeah..not work in the typical sense, but yoga is work for me.  Hard work.  That's one of the reasons I like it so much.  I am not the the type of person that things come easy to.  I am not, what I would call, 'naturally gifted' at very many things.  Everything I enjoy has required hard work (running, guitar, photography, parenting, baking).  I don't know if I enjoy them because they are hard work or if I work hard at them because I enjoy them.  A little of both maybe. To me, things that are worth doing take a lot of time and hard work.  I don't mind waiting and working.  That old cliche' "slow and steady wins the race"...well that's me with almost everything. Yoga is work for me...it's hot, it's sweaty, it can be uncomfortable...it's hard work, but it's the kind of work that makes me forget about the work that stresses me, if only for an hour.

P.S.  I did this using the camera's timer, y'all...now that's hard work;)

What is hard work for you?

Uh, yea, Steph. I'm thinking how hard that was to hold that pose until the camera clicked! You go. Love Amy's pic because it's so nostalgic.

Glad you two are back! I would have taken a break too. ;)
