#Living our chaotic best lives 🤝

Are your old-school photos labeled & organized in albums📒? Most of our pictures are in boxes, loosely grouped by the decades, but not really🗃️. A few are occasionally pulled & end up in a separate box📥. They’re the ones mostly seen here. My personal digital photos aren’t much better🤳. I don’t know how it is for you, but the core people in my life generally stay in my life🤗. A few are either jettisoned or fade along the way🚫. It’s not that different from friends on IG. Sometimes I think about a friend here that I haven’t seen for a long time & try to find them⌛. Do you do that? I mention disorganized photos📚 because I was looking for a Polaroid I took of a friend, @lauraurbanperry & couldn’t find it! I was going to include it here🤷‍♀️. Laura worked as a graphic designer & web designer & we first met in the late ‘70s/early ’80s 👭. Monday, I was scheduled to send page designs & images for a website to a WordPress developer💻, but Sunday night, the developer bailed🏃‍♀️. So, Monday was chaotic😲, but thankfully, Laura helped me connect with Scott Marlow, a WordPress pro🤝. Hooray🎉 Scott is smart & talented👍, pleasant, professional & efficient, plus he used to live in West Seattle, not far from our store, @alkisurfshop🏖️. So, we are off & running, thanks to Laura🏃‍♂️! They say old friends are best🏆. It’s beautiful how longtime friends come through for us. I feel such gratitude to the terrific people in my life🙏. So, I grabbed photos from the past 5 decades, Including @barbarajweaverlloyd in the 1970s, me & my husband in the 2000s, & @jackandpele at Alki Surf shop in 2016. It’s a lost cause for us to organize our photos into albums🖼️, so they will stay in boxes. But I love real photographs. They’re tangible reminders of moments in time 🕰️. Are your photos organized🤔?
