I know, I know, if you’ve seen one picture of wet grass, you’ve seen ’em all.

But I can’t help it.  I love trying to catch those tiny drops of dew before they fade away, like the mist in the morning light. 🙂

Hope your weekend is full of blue skies and lots of fun!

Hey, what’s that blue stuff?

The sky, you say?  Impossible.  Our sky is all gray and overcast and full of rain.  This bright blue thing can’t possibly be sky.

Can it? 😀

It’s another darkish, rainy day, so I thought a bit of sunshine was in order:

Now if only the sky looked as bright as this beautiful bloom. *sigh*

How’s the weather where you are? Is it beautifully sunny or dank and dreary?

This is another sunflower I saw out and about over the weekend, and I love the way this shot turned out:

I love that you can see all the little hairs on the stem and leaves, and I love the color in the image.  It reminds me a bit of Van Gogh’s sunflowers, though I am in no way as good with my camera as he was with a paintbrush.

We had a beautiful sunrise yesterday morning, before the storms moved in.

This picture doesn’t do it justice.

Seymour had our sandbox filled yesterday as a surprise for the boys.

I haven’t seen them this excited since Christmas. 🙂

What kind of surprises make your kids happy?

Photo 365 #350: Change is afoot

wpid-20150720_122623.jpgJust look at this sky.

*inhales deeply*

*exhales happily*

Isn’t it beautiful?  I snapped this picture on my way back from lunch on Monday.  This has been one heck of a crazy week, and as a result, I’m going to have to make some changes.

For starters, I think I’m going to let my Photo Friday feature go on hiatus for a while.  I completely forgot about it last week (and possibly the week before), and with trying to learn a new job, things are pretty hectic here right now, so the fewer things I have to worry about, the better.

This also means that once I finish my Photo 365 project, I’ll probably stop posting quite so frequently.  I want to be able to publish quality blog posts, and if I’m so zonked at the end of the day that I can barely string together a coherent sentence, there’s probably no way I can put together a coherent (to say nothing of entertaining) blog post.  I’ll try to post at least three times a week, but if I go silent for a couple days, try not to worry.

I’ll be Bach. 😀

With that said, I’m pretty zonked right now, so I’m going to go hit up the caffeination station and pray it kicks in soon.  Have a great Thursday, everybody!

Buddy is looking so much better. It’s been over a week since we cleaned out his wounds again, and he is in much better spirits.

Best of all, he’s no longer mad at us. Now that he’s feeling better, he seems to have forgotten last week’s misery, at least for the most part. He didn’t take too kindly to Thumper’s attempts to pet his eyeball, earning my hoppy boy a scratch on the arm.

Of course, if someone tried to pet my eyeball, I’d be a little grumpy, too.

Just sayin’. 🙂
