day 302 of 365

I've strayed just a little off-theme in my daily photos lately -- but as the blog header says, the theme is to embrace words, actual or implied.  And way back last January, I set up some rules for my 365 project, and one of them was: Thou must stick to the theme, OR twist it to thy liking.  So, in that case I've succeeded. 


But today I've got not only words, but a sign, and books! Three of my favorite things.  And now I'm back on track, and all is right with the world.

the rules

I'm interested to hear the rules that others have set for themselves when doing their 365 projects. I know that with my schedule, I could soon drive myself insane if I tried to post a photo on the same day that I took it every day. So I gave myself some wiggle room. Here are the rules I set for myself (so far, anyway!):

• Thou shalt post a photo every day.
• Thy photo should be taken within the week OR
• If it is an edited or altered photo (I work on vintage and texturized photos) it shalt be done in the past 24 hours.
• At least once a month, thou must takest a photo of thyself and post it.
  
• Thou must stick to the theme, OR twist it to thy liking.
• Thou must havest fun, or else stoppest immediately and do something else.

OK -- I'm getting my thees and thous mixed up, but that's the general idea. What rules have you set for yourself?
