10 things I will probably manage to photograph this summer

Please note the *probably*.

I went from 18 photo ideas in January to 12 photo ideas by the end of May.  Theoretically I should be down to about 7 by August.

But hope springs eternal!

1. My husband (yes ladies, he cooks as well as shoots over the heads of bears)

brad-6

2. Havoc (helping Daddy cook)

drake-6

3. Mayhem (reading while others cook, like his mom)

derek-6

4 & 5 The dinos & nailpolish. Not often seen together, but I think they match wonderfully.

6. Legos

7. Myself

9. The clones

10. The cats (this is Smoke, who recently stayed away for 5 days & is now grounded & not allowed out of the house for a month)

    So you'll expand beyond Lego Star Wars, but won't get into other 3.75" action figures?

    yeah, we have several types of Legos but the boys don't seem to be interested in other action figures

    The nail polish and dinos are quite the match, and,um, is it bad of me to say that your husband is quite the hottie!

    Love your photos especially Mayhem's curls and the lego 'portrait'. I can relate to the lego and really wish one of my boys had curls. Do you think the dinos are asking for a pedicure? If they are, they've picked fabulous colours!

    Your photos are fantastic! And while your family is gorgeous and the cat picture striking, it's the The dinos & nail polish shot that had me captivated. Seriously. I love that picture.

I thought I was too late to sign up for it because I was a couple days behind on reading Mel’s blog, but then she contacted me and asked if I could do a post about punctuation. Punctuation? Yes. Punctuation. or perhaps I mean: Yes…punctuation. The first response is clear cut. Yes. It is about punctuation. The second is slightly less certain.  Yeeessss. I suppose it is about punctuation, of all things. It’s kinda rambly & disjointed but still, you must admit punctuation is the focus. Punctuation is very important when communicating on line – we have no sarcasm font or snarky response font – so punctuation helps fill in the gap. At least for me. I use ellipses … all the time. Sometimes they mean “and yes, here is the punch line” or “here is the sarcastic bit”. Usually they just express a general dubiousness about the whole thing, such as in my example, which is in line with their accepted use to suggest faltering or fragmented speech accompanied by confusion, inse

Mayhem decided to take up knitting this week. He found he had plenty of time to knit in the car while we ran errands Oops! Dropped a stitch The dinosaurs were very busy the other afternoon. Once again they requested muffins and they pitched in to make them. Though there was some conflict over who got to stir. Rumors of muffins attracted other dinosaurs And there was some more conflict over control of the bowl The winners circle the bowl in a victory dance But they shouldn't celebrate too soon, because over on the kitchen table trouble is brewing. I'm told they are just getting ready to cut the muffins into equal parts so everyone has a share. but I'm dubious. visit Lotus at www.sarcasticmom.com for more Weekly Winners

A month or so ago I cleaned out my freezer . Yesterday I cleaned my refrigerator. This is a different thing than just cleaning it out. Cleaning it out mostly involves taking most of the food off of the shelves, sorting it and putting the good stuff back. Maybe wiping up some visible spills. But not getting behind or under things or dealing with the bottles on the door. Cleaning it involves taking all the food out, all the bins out, plus disassembling the shelves and scrubbing them & the inside of the fridge all clean. This happens as rarely as the freezer cleaning for much the same reasons – it’s cold, my hands cramp up from the scrubbing and the solid yet still gel like substances that accumulate in dark forgotten corners are a PITA to get clean. Plus the heavy tempered glass shelves are too big to fit in the kitchen sink and have to be washed in the bathtub. Which means I then I have to wash the bathtub. And mop. I never manage to clean the fridge without getting dirty wate
