September 10th - Snapshot

My apologies for the snapshot, I woke up with a really bad sinus infection this morning, and this is all I have energy for. Will try much harder tomorrow.

September 24th - Cici

Today is the 18th anniversary of my mother passing away. Not a great day for me, but not a terrible day either. At least I didn't cry the whole day! Only a few tears. Anyway, here's a shot of a cute dog names Cici, who was very sweet and kept trying to eat my shoes. And, a shot of the sunset. Unfortunately, the colors aren't as great in the photo as they were in person. Very rich orange tonight. Have a great weekend everyone!

September 14th - My Puppers!

Coalette

Both of them

Nitro

Nitro

Here are some shots of my dogs, Nitro and Coalette. The running gag around here is that if I had thought of it at the time, she would have been named Glycerine. :P

Oh, and they're mutts. Border Collie mixes. Their mom was a tiny, 15 pound dog that looked like a cross between a German Shepherd and a Chihuahua - all browns and blacks. Very strange.

The dad was supposedly the American Eskimo that lived in the same house, but we saw a Border Collie trotting around the neighborhood, and the owner of our puppies mom claimed her dog never left the yard, and the Collie never came over. She had no fence.

To that I say, "Yeah, right." They're Border Collie mixes. American Eskimo dogs are pure white, and their color is a dominate trait! There's no way! Besides, I like Border Collies. Lol!

January 19th - Moss on a log and Snow White

This is moss on a log in my yard. My hubby brought home some firewood, and this was on one of the logs. I thought it was neat. It's not as green as it is in real life, although I did try to boost the green a tad.

And there's a bonus shot for today:


Here's a "Snow White" Chrysanthemum from my yard. They're itty-bitty, like small daisies. Maybe 1 1/2 inches across. It's hard to see, but there are rain drops there. We had thunder and lightning three times, so far, today! That's rare for us!! :) Sorry it's a bit blurry. I still think it's pretty.

October 27th - Not Wheat
