geez

 

tonight's not a moonlit night

well not a full moon-lit night

but its a little clearer than this pic

 

i got streak of purple put into my hair

i'm 44

 

so why not - right? 

 

i never got around to uploading pictures from the summer until just now.

 

seems silly to post them after the season is over.  its kinda like going to a halloween party after halloween - that always drove me crazy. 

 

when its over its over

 

and thus so is summer



need to find my words

 

until then i will borrow some.....

puppy love

oh he's a cutie for sure - and a bit of nightmare at the same time.

we rescued him a little over a week ago

he'll be 9 months tomorrow. 

 

he is beautiful isn't he?

a pekingese/tibetian spaniel mix

and he is also a nipper - a big one

part puppy - part lunatic is my guess

 

but he gets me outside everyday

walking

and walking

and walking

 

i didn't realize how much i missed being outside

for more than just the time it takes for me to get from my car to the office.

 

oh its so nice

all these daily walks

makes the constant nips worth it

 

ok not really

but you gotta take the bad with the good 

 

 



 

at this moment.....

...

i am "wasting" a beautiful saturday morning sitting at the computer doing nothing really but browsing.

it feels like a luxury

there is stuff to do - hang the laundry outside, finish the dishes, grocery shop and some other errands...

i'll do them - there's no rush or agenda for today - when i'm ready

heart breaking

my son went to the philly zoo on a field trip. i went along b/c i hadn't been to the zoo since i was in elementary school. i'm not a huge fan of zoos - but i've come to terms with the idea that zoos are not evil places full of people who abuse animals.  but actually it is full of people who truly care for the animals.

still -  pictures like this one depress me. 

 he was so obviously depressed - i felt horrible gawking at him through the glass.  why was his home all concrete and vents - while other primates were outside with live plants?

that foot........blows my mind

as i snapped this picture the flamingo's head went under water. i didn't want to capture that - so i took another when his head was above water. 

ends up i like this shot more afterall....

looking for inspiration

i haven't done anything lately that seems blog worthy - which, as you can see from my lack of posts these last 2 years, is nothing new.  i went through recently uploaded pictures to find something that thrilled me.



this one always catches my eye

love her too

even though the past months have been filled with trips, proms, birthdays, art shows, school concerts.

confirmations, parties, playing

i can't find a single picture i like.....





i'm not worried though - the inspiration will come
