Confession Seven - Nashville Photo Shoot

Today I'm confessing that I absolutely loved Nashville, TN. Not only did we get to play in downtown Nashville and listen to awesome live music, I got to do a quick photo shoot. I'm just getting back into photography after nearly an 18 year hiatus. 18 years ago, there were no digital cameras, so photo shoots are so different now, with so much flexibility. I love it!

Below is a picture of our friend's home where we stayed while we were visiting, incredible right? You have no idea how ultra cool their house is. We were so blessed to be able to stay there and partake in some great memories.

The pictures to the right were taken in the surrounding areas. I was in heaven... {{swooning}} right?

I hope these pictures inspire you to get out and see some natural beauty in your city.



And these are from downtown Nashville... all taken exclusively from my iPhone. I've used 3 different photo apps. Stay tuned in the coming weeks to see which are my favorites. There are so many neat apps now to use. The hubs and I had fun goofing off as you can see. We truly were able to cut loose!
I absolutely loved downtown Nashville, all about country music, boots and good ole southern food and fun!


Thanks again for stopping by and I hope you liked my latest confession!

Confession Two - Down Time from being Creative

Can you believe it? I'm on my second post of the year! Yahoo! I'm committed now, I have all my subscribers waiting to see what I write about next.  I'll be working on many creative projects this month, but for today I thought it would be good to show how I decompress from my "creative" day.  I have a hard time shutting off the brain and not thinking of "creative" stuff all day long.  If you are like me, everyday is hectic and planned to the gills with a "To - Do List" that is so long, I think any day now, my iPhone app is going to start charging me. In addition to exercising (I'm currently "off" the wagon) I confess that I do like watching well written TV Series to decompress. I guess you can say I'm sorta  a TV Junkie! It's just a great way to transport myself into another life, world and situation. It let's me really forget about my day and life for a short while and focus on something else.

Here are some of my favorite shows... And yes, I love watching many of these series on Netflix, back to back on my Kindle, iPad, Computer, Roku or Blue-ray... I'm committed you see?

Nashville - ABC What's not to like about country musicians living in Nashville, TN with the glitz and glam. Not to mention the amazing singers! My Nashville Soundtrack is one of my favorites right now (stay tuned to a monthly "playlist" post).

Scandal - ABC Being a Poli Sci Major, this series is riveting for me! It takes me back to my college days when I once contemplated working in Washington DC with a politician. The writing is amazing, keeping your attention from one episode to another. I couldn't watch Season 1 quick enough!

Homeland - Showtime If you are looking for an intense show that keeps you on your toes and wanting more and more this is the show for you. I absolutely love Claire Danes and the rest of the cast. It doesn't hurt that the show is highly political about a Marine who is thought to be "turned" into a terrorist when he is released after 8 years in captivity. A bit of romance and there you go, a fabulous show.

Mad Men - AMC Set in the 1960's, at a fictional advertising agency on Madison Avenue in New York City. I love watching this with the hubs, we laugh and get shocked with every episode on what is considered appropriate during the 1960's  in a corporate environment. It's interesting to see the way women were treated back then.  If you are fan of this time period like me, then you will love watching Mad Men. Catch up on past episodes (originally aired in 2007) on Netflix and Amazon.

Of course with the new season of Downton Abbey starting and all the hype, I want to watch this series now! Any of you watch it?




Let me know in the comments what you like watching, I'm sure I could use another series or 2 to watch....  Thanks again for stopping by and I hope you liked my latest confession!
