Been a go go go day.
Started out at church taking photos of the kids in the basketball program for the fridge magnets we give out. Had to be there by 7:45 AM. Such fabulous under pressure practice is hard to find. I loved taking pictures of the kids as well and yet at the same time as fast as I could. Found I need to tinker with my new flash more and read about it more. I couldn’t get it to recycle fast enough and had to abandon using it by the second session.
Ran home afterward and crashed for a few minutes, then processed all the images and headed to a friend’s for game day. Played Mystery at the Abbey for the first time. Clue-like, but much more fun. I actually won, ta-boot.
When we got home and tucked kiddos into bed, I got the CD of images ready for church. Then I took some “me” time and tried a few quilt blocks of the Crazy Nine Patch for this week’s block at Sew Mama Sew. I probably should have started with something thin and workable like cotton. But I like wool, so as usual I’m starting the hard way.
Last night I did what I said I wasn’t going to do and tried hard to resist. We brought home another kitty. (After the last kitty we had, who bit my kiddos in the face. I really didn’t think we’d have one again.) Now before y’all start razzing me, you must know he NEEDED a home. He was basically kicked outside until they could find a home for him. Their other kitty behaved badly around him and they’d felt they needed to have him live outside. (They did let him in when it was really bitter cold.) This broke my heart and I was in tears several times over this poor, sweet kitty who couldn’t help that his owner couldn’t take him with her. Why they didn’t kick the other cat out, I have no clue. Our new kitty actually likes people, is happy to get any attention, and puts up with my kiddos pretty well. He’s a little on the roughed up side (has a scratch in one eye, and a spot under his chin). But I think he’ll do well with us.

Finished editing the best of the pictures from a photo shoot for a friend over a week ago. Thought I’d share my favorite of the set.

Now I’m off to crash. Too bleary eyed to read my typing.
