Photo post

Well, I find that I signed up to receive daily email prompts for a month long photo project.
I did this late at night without thoroughly reading what it was actually all about!
I just thought, whoa...cool, a photo a day project this will help me find inspiration.
And it might yet!
However the point is to record the ones you love in the month of February.
Well, since it is not my M.O. to display the ones I love here, this will be quite a challenge!
I might just make it a personal project and post here if it ends up being something usable.
Okay with you???
Today's project was capture "the things they do".
So here ya go on that one.
This is my big boy with his fingers flying away on the keyboard at about 9:13 this evening.

Yes, I do know the exact time because I had just been in harassing my middle child to take his picture too, and it was 9:11 and I specifically remember telling him that he had 4 minutes to lights out!!

So there!




You see this??

It is my still very sick computer that my husband is now on one week later and still no full solution status.
Looks like something out of Tron!
I did not choose this bells and whistles computer with the fun lights, though secretly I have come to enjoy it!

I just wanted someplace to check email and do a little blogging.
I don't need anything special.
No, I don't! Now I am back in the position of jockeying for time on this old beast.
I am so very thankful that we have "backup" and I don't have to be completely disconnected from the web!


I really, really liked my tan boots in the snow picture from last week and felt equally compelled today to share this rainboots in the clover picture.

Don't look too closely as I am pretty sure that is not at all clover!

I found a button on the photo program that I had lost!
LOST, and now it is found. Not the new program with a book that I need to read. No, the program that was accused to causing my nice new blue light computer to crash...program!

It lets me mess with the colors, intensity, saturation, and contrast. It does a full over the full photo job and is fun to play with!
I bet you noticed that you got a visual dose of this tool at work today.

Here is one last photo today!
I call it "lichen".

Is that even lichen? Or, maybe it is moss?
I don't know, whatever I just like the look of it and wasn't sure if anything more interesting would be seen in my lens today.

Speaking of lenses, my new one should be here tomorrow!!!!!
Did I tell you I got a new lens? I can't remember!

Hey, I got a new lens! Remember all those earrings I was making?
Well, I made and sold and saved and finally decided to spend, on a lens.

It is a 50mm f/1.8, know any more than you did before???

When it gets here I will take a picture with it and you will be amazed and hopefully I can explain why I am so excited to have it.
I mean, I hope you will be amazed. I hope I can take a picture which will cause you amazement.

Hey, ya know what else??
I came across and amazing deal on Food Network magazine and ordered that too.
It seems like it was around 10 bucks for the year!
Oh, I love me some Food Network and hope to have that arriving soon so that we can have some fresh food ideas around here as well.
I commit to preparing at least one recipe from each issue and blogging it!
I commit to it, right now.
I think I better slow down on all these commitments and get some laundry done!
See ya tomorrow!

P.S.
