I Love New York Travel

I can’t blame her. I wish the flash didn’t zap her blue eyes, either. Unfortunately, my camera is starting to show signs of weariness. The lens does not focus as it should anymore. Do cameras slowly fade?! I have a Kodak z1012. The color is superb, perfect for color printing. I purchased it because Kodak is superior with color. However, the focusing capability is very poor. I may eventually have to replace the device. :( I do not look forward to spending another $200 for a camera. *sigh* But it is an important accessory for my blogging… we’ll see.

Too many choices… what camera do I get?!

I found this in my archives a few days ago. Isn’t he precious?

We were building a property-line fence around the front yard that year– must be 8 years ago, now! Oh wow. How does time pass so quickly?

Well, we dug holes 2 feet deep all around the border and side yard: 25 posts. Oh my word it was probably the hardest thing I’d done. The ground was literally FILLED with stones. It took us quite a few weeks of post-hole digging and then shoveling or troweling out the enormous stones from these holes. Talk about how to lose weight quickly. It all came back, though. :-p

My son was intrigued with the holes. He wanted to test them. The fence still stands, and is in good shape, so I guess we passed the test. ;)

Watching cats bath themselves is relaxing. They are peaceful. So meticulous. So quiet. I need the quiet solitude right now; life is incredibly hectic. I am absolutely thrilled to have so much work at hand! It’s hard to believe that just six months ago, I was on the brink of anxiety, wondering where my income was going to come from. Lo and behold, God opens the doors and I have tons of work. I have been very, very blessed to work for a company that is well-managed and gives me plenty of work. I write on various topics, anything that interests me, from how to make wedding invitations to fact sheets about inventions. Plus, there’s blogging which is very pleasurable. But golly, I am so busy I have no time to relax.

So I enjoy watching my kitty, beside me, while she does it. :D
