Perfect week for this theme.  A few hours after posting the announcement, it befell me.  The flu.  Despite getting the preventive inoculation, an ornery strain found its way into me and then I was homebound for the weekend.  Truth be told, as of this writing, I’m still feeling the effects.

Since the goal was to photograph ordinary, banal things… but to find something in them that was interesting or even beautiful, being restricted in my field of view (translation: confined to my quarters) was actually helpful.  Sitting with a thick blanket draped over me and planted in the big comfy chair gave me opportunity to see.  Here’s what I saw.

And here are Joey’s photographs.
