Sometimes it seems like Isis gets the most attention on this blog, as she’s the one who stays still long enough for my camera to snap a picture of her. Denali is always on the go and rarely just taking it easy. Which, when you think about it, is a relief really, because it means […]

Hehe, Isis doesn’t need the kitty version of Lipovox! Isis knows that the best way to keep her kitty-figure lean and trim is to spice up her diet with some greens. And considering how much rain we’ve been getting, you can bet the lawn outside is indeed very green and very fresh. In fact, yesterday […]

It’s a bright and beautiful morning today. The temperature is remaining low, thus far, and there is a very nice and gentle breeze keeping everything low and present. I went outside a little while ago to take some shots and for some odd reason I glanced up and took a shot. Of the shots I […]

So how are your gardens looking today? Ours is doing amazingly well right now, which is quite a surprise since no one has had a chance to get out there and weed it properly. Hell, there are a couple of small tumbleweeds that got blown into the rose bushes and the irises from the heavy […]

The girls are very happy right now, although I am a little less than pleased with Isis at the moment, but more on that later. Since the weather has been absolutely lovely today, and the girls both got their vaccinations, I decided to let them go outside for a bit. Denali get’s to go outside […]

I can just see the “WTF?!” expressions on everyone’s faces after reading that post title. Here, does this help clear things up?

Maybe the phrase “clear up” isn’t the exact phrase I should have used. But right now, that’s the view you’re treated to when you step one foot outside of the house. No, it’s […]

Yeah, so it’s terribly belated, I know. I missed it on Wednesday, said “oh well” and walked away. Then I actually bothered to look at the challenge, and I couldn’t resist. Took these as I took a walk along the canal. Just let mother nature give me some targets and clicked away.

Most of the […]

This week’s challenge was “Spring”. After much consideration I decided I wanted to show off a few older images that I took back on the 13th of March. They fit the challenge perfectly, and to be honest, with the wind as it is, the blossoms aren’t looking too pretty anymore.
Joana also did not […]

I’ve been moaning and groaning all day long over Twitter about how there isn’t anything in the kitchen to eat. And really, there isn’t much in way of food stuffs either. Most of the goods remaining are in the can food and staples department. Stuff that lasts and certainly doesn’t make a quick meal. After […]

My grandfather recently got a new battery for his tractor and disced the “backyard” of our house, specifically the area around the fruit trees. It was so wonderful to smell the freshly plowed earth again. I might like many features of the city but I think, deep down, I am a country girl. Go […]

Another Wednesday has come, and with it, another Lens Day challenge! This week’s challenge, Toys was quite a bit of fun since I do have several lying around. I was going to line some up on the kitchen counter, but not only are our counters not exactly “directbuy quality” I also forgot that there […]
