It’s that time again. Another Reality Shot Thursday, that day where we share photos that aren’t staged or pretty and wouldn’t normally be included on our blogs. We’re just keeping it real, as they say.
This ugly bin is in our den. In fact it is just to the right of the dollhouse on the other side of the closet. This bin has been sitting in the den for a few months. Do you remember when Don was having yard sales this summer? I was away working in Wisconsin. In this bin are all his CDs and old books that were for sale. (By the way, I looked in the bin the other day and some of my CDs and books were in there. He’s lucky he didn’t sell them.) Anyway, I’m sick of looking at it and am going to strongly encourage my husband to clean it out and put it back in the shed where it belongs. It is directly across from me as I sit in my chair and blog.
As you can see, our various throws have done nothing to disguise its ugliness. In fact, the photo is grainy and I don’t care. Why pretty it up? (Those are dog toys to the right.)
Please share your reality shot with us this week and remember to visit each link and leave a comment.
I’m still pondering the fate of this meme. Do we want to continue it every week? Or perhaps once a month as someone suggested? Maybe the first Thursday or the last Thursday? Let me know your thoughts on the subject.

Good morning
I still like the idea of sharing everyday commodities. As I am the first one here I’m still looking forward to peeking into yours.
Have a nice day

While I haven’t participated in the fun of “Reality Shot Thursday” (yet), I have to say that I love it! Please keep doing it.
Also – I love your doll house blogs as well. I always look forward to your posts.

I do enjoy RST, my post for this week is up but Mr Linky doesn’t seem to be cooperating this morning.
Hosting a meme must be time consuming and of course we’ll understand if you want to stop or perhaps go to once a month, I’d miss it though!

I linked.. though, I don’t see Mr. Linky on your page.. :) Here’s my URL and it’s all reality, when it comes to construction! (Shed to cottage/cabin conversion). Love your posts and doll house upgrades!http://suburbantownhousecountrycottage.blogspot.com/2011/10/were-halfway-there.html

I think it’s good to know that not everyone has a perfect home. I am not brave enough to show my reality shots but I sure like peeking at everyone elses! LOL!
At least the stuff is neatly contained in the bin.
hugs

I HAVE A FEW OF THOSE PLASTIC CONTAINERS, THEY ARE WONDERFUL, AND THEN AGAIN THEY’RE NOT. DOESN’T TAKE ME LONG TO FILL ONE UP. ABOUT REALITY THURSDAY, ONCE A WEEK IS FINE, BUT IF WANT TO CUT IT DOWN, THAT’S FINE TOO. I THINK ITS A LOT OF FUN…WHATEVER YOU DECIDE IS OK WITH ME. RIZZI

You know the saying ‘misery loves company’? Well, ‘messy loves company’ too!
I’ll participate as long as you are hosting. (except for next week – the girlfriends will be here and I won’t be on the computer!)

I love Reality Shot Thursday- I am really late- but I posted this week. I would participate when I could- life has been a bit hectic lately as far as computer time. I love to see everyone else’s reality though- and meeting new bloggers is always so much fun. I wouldn’t mind either once a month or weekly.
