Photo Challenge: NORMAL

When I picked this prompt I knew that we were on our way to adjusting our definition of NORMAL but I didn't count on how difficult that transition would be. I mean, I did on a macro level, but not on a micro one. Which is why I wheeled over to the Flickr group Monday morning and realized that the deadline was in 24 hours and no one had entered. Not even me! Thanks to the miracles of modern technology that let us do this stuff in the first place everything was solved in just a couple of hours.

Please enjoy these pictures even more than you might have previously. NORMAL is hard these days. Really hard.

Our Lisa claims that this outfit for the Halloween session of her kickboxing class isn't that far off what she usually wears. I believe her.

Just a kid with a stick playing a game with the water and Our Janet. If I understand correctly Ralphie helped her set up this shot.

What do you mean it's not normal to dress my dog up and put him in a cage? It's normal in my neighborhood!

This one is like the perfect melding of Our Bethany's old normal with her new one. 

It's that time of year again so the prompt is a no brainer. We're going to call it GRATEFUL but you can feel prompted by any of the following THANKS/GRATEFUL/GRATITUDE/LUCKY/BLESSED/BLESSING/[fill in your prompt here].

Please enter by 9am Tuesday November 27th for posting on November 28th. Tag your photos with PHOTO CHALLENGE and NORMAL. Check out the wonderful work in our Flickr Pool for inspiration. Also, let me know if you have questions.
