Exhausted

Old and New

I attached this ball to the ceiling to help me in parking the Jeep in the garage.

But the Prius gets a laser pointer, lol.  I guess it's technology for the technological car and old school for the old one.

Brodi just parks where ever he wants.

smelling the flowers

Everyone can appreciate a little beauty and fresh flowers can make the day a little brighter.

Brodi SOOC #42

Just my little Brodi enjoying the snow. Will the winter never end?

Just stuff

Fibi had been watching the fishes swim until I made a noise grabbing the camera.



Brodi is sticking his tongue out at you!



We came upon this field last fall and it seemed kinda silly. All was harvested and finished for the winter, except the few stalks left lonely.

Amaryllis

I have never tried my hand at the Amaryllis bulbs because I didn't figure I would have any luck. But, they had them on sale and it was already poking out of the box, so. . .

Viola! I did it! :)

My Photographer's Assistant, lol.

PS -Anyone live in (or visit) New Orleans?  We're planning a trip - any tips for us?

brodi

My constant companion -through chemo and beyond.  He does things daily to put a smile on my face.  Laughter - good for the soul!

playful

My size doesn't matter, I have the strength to take on things 10 times bigger than I am.

I really should have taken my flash out with us I guess, oh well, I still like this one of her.  Sorry I'm overloading you on puppy for a little bit here, I'm assuming I'll find a home for her soon and her time here is limited so I'm soaking her up. :)

She jumps and runs and wants to play with everyone. That's her daddy's leg you can see on the right.

He ran like a little girl while she chased him wanting to play, she finally cornered him and he turned with fear in his eyes, lol.

Brodi's pretty cautious of his wee one, but he does play with her a little and she's starting to mimic his play. This photo was taken right before the first photo. A series of three.

Our Crazy Lhasas

I recently rearranged the furniture for the winter and the pups are going crazy trying to get to the birds.  Brodi on the left and Fibi on the right jump up each time a bird comes to feed.  I just grabbed the point and shoot to snap them, was afraid they would disappear if I took the time to change the lens on the big boy.

Fibi's puppy loves to sleep like this, like mother like daughter I guess. I'm thinking she should go to a photographer - she doesn't mind when I take photos of her, she stays still and just opens an eye, or two, and watches. I think maybe she likes it, lol.

Fibi at 4 months old.

The mice, Brodi and the Lightbox

I have another friend looking to make a lightbox, so thought I would repost this
posted Sunday, 27 January 2008

The mice have went home now, but it doesn't stop Brodi from looking for them.

We babysat my daughter's mice while they were out of town - the mice are no longer in this world

We were contemplating making a lightbox similar to the one Sallad made but we weren't sure where we would put it when we weren't using it. So we opted to use foamboard to line a cubby in an old dresser. We were going to use velcro to hold it all to the sides but found we didn't need to. We put the bottom in, then the sides and back, leaving the top for last and sides and back hold the top up. We also used this real flexible write-on-wipe-off posterboard for the bottom and curved up the back wall so you don't have the line. We just taped some of the scraps together to kind of keep the mice in the box. As a side note, we're using fluorescent bulbs, not only because they use less electricity, but also because they run cooler.

If you can believe it, two years later and Brodi still runs to the box every time I use it, looking for the mice I assume, who said dogs have 7 second memories?!
