Yesterday morning, in between gently urging my kids to just put your shoes on OMG PLEASE RIGHT NOW, and shoving my own feet in to rain boots, I was scrolling through Instagram and came across the #LifeCaptcha challenge and decided at that moment to jump in.
In their own words:
We invite you to join us.
Follow #lifecaptcha on Instagram.
On the 19th day of the month,
Every hour at 44 minutes past the hour,
drop everything and take a picture.

Connect with others.
After some quick texting, Wendy and I decided to split the day with her taking the even hours, while I would post on the odds. Let’s take a quick stroll through our day.
Southern California Weather Wimp reporting for duty.
Wendy wins breakfast!
I spent some time last week making this desk space a little more my own, and now I really look forward to getting to work every day! (Also, that candle was featured in yesterday’s favorites post!)
Who even knew there was a crystal shop in Wendy’s ‘hood? Not I.
Wendy is having a significantly more exciting day than I am. Taking a Vitamin D break with this little guy before Rainpocalypse. #lifecaptcha
This little dude is my constant companion during the day. He doesn’t really want you to acknowledge him, he just wants to be riiiiight next to you.
12:44pm: Finally home and watching a live Pinterest webinar to take our biz to the next level. Megan’s desk is far cuter and more organized than mine. #pinpower #lifecaptcha
We were both pouring over Pinterest courses yesterday. We are FIRED up about 2017 and making big changes around here.
1:44 pm. Killing time between volunteering and pickup with a book and a snack. Really wish that apple was a cookie. #lifecaptcha
I have the world’s most inconvenient volunteer time. It ends 30 minutes before school gets out, and usually I just kill time on my phone. Today I came prepared!
While I was rounding up kids from school, Wendy was working away.
3:44 pm. Homework. #projectsalldayeveryday #lifecaptcha
School projects are slowly killing me.
4:44pm: Afternoon fire with Chip and Jo. Debating what we’re doing for dinner. Maybe ? #lifecaptcha
Wendy was living her best life this afternoon. I am super jealous of her fire. We have a fireplace that we can’t use for stupid reasons. JEALOUS.
5:44. Dinner? Done. #keepingitreal #lifecaptcha
I phoned in dinner, big time. My husband wasn’t home for dinner so I went for the easiest dinner that no one will argue about.
6:44pm: waiting for pizza and still watching HGTV. Super lazy Thursday night and really wish I had a glass of Chardonnay. My head is actually blocking a laundry basket, too. #keepingitreal #lifecaptcha
DYING over Wendy’s caption. Nothing to see here, folks!
I was doing bedtime at 7:44, so now I’m calling it a night. Considering a full social media fast for tomorrow as the weight of the day is bearing down on me. Be kind to yourselves. ❤️-M #lifecaptcha
And, goodnight.
We’ll be playing along again next month on the 19th and you should join in, too!
If Erin reminds me next month, I’m totally doing it next month. Fun pictures!
