15 Stop Motion Link up- Selfie Saturday Week 15 If you haven’t noticed I added a more prominent FOLLOW ME section on the top right for those of you who are with blogger or other blogs and are not sure how to subscribe/follow me. Just enter your email address in the FOLLOW ME and then confirm the subscription so that you never have to miss some of the selfie goodness This was a very tough week for me. Besides being busy, I seemed to always have something going on. I was really really hoping I’d be able to shoot specifically for the stop motion video rather than use the old vacation photos for it. It didn’t look like it was going to happen until Friday evening, when I literally dragged my hubby to the beach and took 2300 (!!!) pictures in the process. It was very...

Yellow Happiness

11 Sometimes I get inspired to take selfies for no apparent reason. I noticed the beautiful combination of soft blue and yellow and that was my trigger. Last time I attempted to take a selfie on a hammock, I was missing a remote due to my awesome (read: awful) habit of misplacing them. And while I think it was pretty, it would be much better if it actually had focused right on it. This time it was different! Hoorray to sharp focus and bright colors! I have a FACEBOOK page, people! So please LIKE it, so that I, at least, knew who you are! Let’s call it DELURKING! I want to know you ALL! I shot random videos of the neighborhood, now I need time to put it together and post it here. It should be soooo PURRRRTY! Oh and I cannot wait to...

3 My weirdo cat Explain to me why Travis decided it’s necessary to jump on my back every time I bend over my sink? I cant brush my teeth, wash my face, or sit down in the bathroom with this little black devil thinking he’s a parrot and has to reside on my shoulders or back! He even dares to yawn while sitting there. And cuz I’m too nice, I keep the position for him until it’s time for him to get off or until I get sick of standing bent over, whichever comes first!
