Fun at the Forestry Farm

I was doing so well

And then I fell off the wagon. I guess the 365 pictures was not meant to be, lol.

I'll keep taking pictures, but until I can find a way for my camera to upload them here directly,...

Oooh....I bet that will be the next big thing in cameras...wifi capability!

Testing

Is this thing on?

Posted from my phone. Cool!

Another silly license plate. I swear I was not taking pictures while driving. I was stopped at a traffic light.

I wonder if there is a Dr. Moore out there somewhere?

My favorite thing to do while visiting my parents. I lost. Dad won. That rarely changes.

This is the man made 'lake', or maybe pond would be a better description, that is along my daily walk. In the winter it's completely iced over and they clear a few rink sized areas for skating and hockey. The ice is breaking up finally, and the birds are already back.

We've been away, but I've taken all my pictures! Most were taken with my phone, but they look okay.

14 (phone) - My car could only have this license plate twice a year.

12


11 (phone) - A beautiful walk. The girls are half way across the bridge with grandpa.


10 - His eyebrows are not really as big as they look!


9 - My secret for a good bejeweled score....bring in a ringer!

Brrrrr....we needed a fire this evening for a backyard bbq. The weather is just not quite there yet, as you could probably guess considering there is still snow on the ground! Not my idea for a bbq, and not my backyard. If it had been my choice, it would have been inside where it was warmer and there was a lot less mud!

I took this yesterday but didn't have time to post it.

Breakfast

Nighttime in my backyard. We had a busy day, and I should really start taking my camera with me where ever I go, but it's kinda big, so it gets left behind a lot.
We got home in time to put the girls to bed, and I decided I should take some outside pictures of the yard and maybe take one every week to see the melting progress. We've already lost a lot of the snow in our yard (yay!) and it shouldn't be too long before it's all gone.

The 80's are definitely back.
She asked me with complete seriousness if I think the name Roxie Rockstar is already taken.


If you click on the picture (this one, and the others I have posted) it should take you to a larger better quality one.

I had to snap this one quickly as my camera shuts off demanding more batteries. If I'd had to, I would have scavenged the batteries from the remotes, but I got a good one!

Beth is probably the happiest of the girls that Spring finally seems to be here. We're still only a few degrees above freezing each day, but that's good enough for her. The snow has melted off the trampoline so she's good to go!

It all started with a load of laundry

How is it that going downstairs to throw a laundry in turned into:

• a load of laundry
• helping the kids clean up the crayons they left all over the floor
• vacuuming the floor of all the little crayon bits
• vacuuming the stairs because I noticed how dirty they were when I walked by with the vacuum
• vacuuming the porch floor because I was now at the top of the stairs anyways
• vacuuming the laundry room floor
• refilling the cat food
• emptying and sorting through the central vacuum canister looking for an earring that I vacuumed off the floor that I should have just left in the canister to teach the owner a lesson
• vacuuming the mess emptying the canister made
• taking out the garbage

Don't get me wrong, I'm glad it's all done, but I just wanted to do a load of laundry and come back upstairs and watch the rest of Survivor.

I just don't think you can go wrong with stripey socks.

The litle guy I babysit was more than happy to pose for me this morning. He held his one foot right up to the camera lens and almost fell over when I asked him if I could take a picture of his socks, lol.

I think I figured it out

I noticed last week that my list of feeds, that tell me when someone has updated their blog, wasn't working. It says that every one's last update was May 22, 2009. Weird. Or so I thought.

Then I remembered that around the same time that the feeds quit working I had somehow changed my computer clock. I must have been looking at dates and instead of cancelling, I must have left it at that date, which was May 22nd, and the reason I know it was that date was because I sent two emails the next day. Chris said he never received the one I sent him, and I double checked in my sent box and saw the date of May 23rd on it. He still has not received the email (remind me on May 23rd to ask him if it arrives), and I changed my computer clock back as soon as I noticed

So because my computer checked for new feeds on what it thinks was May 22nd, it is not checking for them anymore, because my clock is back to normal and thinks they must be up to date since it isn't even May yet. The good thing is that I think I figured out why it's not updating, but the bad thing is I can't figure out how to fix it.
