April, 2009 Archives

I’ve been a real slacker lately. No excuse really – we haven’t even been busy – I’ve just been kind of lazy.

february 14: I took my car in for a car wash and it was apparently valentine’s day, so my mechanic gave me a rose (I already had the rings)

february 15: dinner (I also haven’t put much effort into my pictures lately…obviously)

february 16: the first day i missed! so sad. it was a very stressful day.

february 17: cashew in the office

february 18: cashew in the window

february 19: i was having a rough week, and came home to find these on my desk; darek is the best. : )

february 20: cashew again (me being lazy again)

february 21: we took a trip to amarillo; this is my mom’s cat Lazer (Laser?)

february 22: my parents think they want to sell their house, so i took some pictures for their listing (cat and person not included)

february 23: cashew is IN (the inbox)

february 24: the rose from my mechanic, still alive

february 25: these are the first flowers that bloom in our yard each year, and I love them

february 26: another lazy quick-it’s-11pm-what-do-I-take-a-picture-of day

february 27: cashew. again. geez.

february 28: more flowers in our yard

February Stats: 28 days, 27 pictures. Not bad!

I’m sorry for all the cat pictures. When I feel unmotivated, it’s just the easiest thing to shoot. I’ll try to cut down in the future.

Also – do any/all of these pictures look dark to anyone? I’m having some monitor issues with my new computer…

beauty in death

April 17th, 2009

This tulip was beautiful yesterday. Today it was pretty much dead. I started to throw it out, but then I noticed how beautiful it still is. Just in a different way.
