Duke day

Shake shake shake

this smells like someone else has been playing with it

The bone or the ball, which one?

Oh, hello, I didn't see you there.

You want to play with me? I'll take this end you grab the other end OK?

Go away, I'm watching football

I'm not the one watching football. It's Duke. I could if I wanted to but it's never really held my interest long enough to make me want to.

He was doing everything possible to avoid looking at me and my camera. Since he was busy with the game I went in search of other things to do.

Check out these shadows on my bedroom blinds.

Nope, no messages

Here fishy fishy fishy

Orange you glad you stopped by for a slice of my day

In case you're wondering that's a piece of a dried orange slice. What do you want? I've taken enough pictures of my backyard and icicles.

A day off

It's Saturday, no work today and even the snow took a break. Of course it's still cold but at least we didn't get any more snow. This was taken looking out my back door this morning.

Here's one from this afternoon. The sun was actually shining. I'm not sure which one of you sent it but THANK YOU. Next time could you include a little bit more heat with it?

I didn't do a whole lot today.

I played on the computer visiting some blogs, reading email and editing some pictures.

I played with my camera a little until the battery died.

I took a nap.

I made another attempt at figuring out a crochet pattern for a rectangular granny square blanket.

Oh, yeah,, housework, I swept the kitchen floor AND wiped off the bathroom counter.

Well since it's a whole whopping 4 degrees out right now, I think I'll go find a nice warm blanket and curl up.

Blame it on the snow

It has to be all the snow that is making me do strange things. I think, however, that there are several people who know me personally that would most likely disagree with that. Who cares what they think. It's the snow. That's my story and I'm sticking with it.

Well now that I have that new camera I want to play. My only problem is the darn snow. It's keeping me cooped up in the house and let me tell you, there are not very many interesting things to take pictures of in my house.

I've taken a few out the window. Here's a real impressive one.

Alright, maybe impressive wasn't quite the right word for it. But pictures like this do have value. You can make cool things like this with it.

I guess I've been back on the kaleidoscope kick again. Every time I make one of these things I have to open it up in photoshop elements and play some more.

I call this "Fire and Ice"

Since today is Friday that means I have 2 whole days to do more of something. I haven't quite figured out what that something is yet. If it turns out like most weekends something will mean that I do a whole lot of nothing.
