ALMOST back to normal….

Almost!  I am on the mend, but it is taking WAY too long to shake this flu/cold.  I felt a little housebound this afternoon, so walked down the block to the pet store for food that Neva needed.   I took my camera, cut through a community garden, took a few shots, then took a…

Just a few….

I was home sick today.  As a result, I didn’t set foot out my door and didn’t have my camera working much at all.  I did see a few things out of our window, and then couldn’t resist taking Neva’s picture because she was adorable. Have a good Friday everyone!

Black and White Day

I got a flu shot this year.  I have the flu.   Bummer.  I went to work this morning, but came home mid day and rested.  As a result, I only took a few shots today when I walked to work and in the little cafe where I stopped for coffee.    And since I…

Just a wish….

…to share with all of you!  I didn’t take any photos today, I didn’t walk at lunch, and it was pouring with rain after work.  Tomorrow will be back to a more normal post, but in the meantime, I pass along and share this wish, that the guy who works in a coffee shop near…

Victoria catch up, high heel and a beaver

Today’s post is a catch up from my Sunday in Victoria with my Mom, and also a few shots from today.  Mom and I saw all kinds of wildlife, both domestic and wild, kites, I took a nice walk on a tiny rocky beach, and saw little chalk hand prints from kids in my Mom’s…

A Quickie from my Mom’s….

That title sounds just a little wrong.  And my typing may be wrong too.  I was using Crazy Glue this afternoon, and the tips of my fingers are shellacked with dried glue.  LOL!  As the title states, I’m over at my Mom’s….not many photos from today, but if anyone feared seagulls, they’d have been on…

Two days worth….

I took yesterday and today as vacation days.  I needed to get some things done around home, run some errands and today, I took a long walk around my favorite happy place, Lost Lagoon.  The photos that follow are from both days.  (LOVE the animals/birds at the Lagoon!) Thanks for coming with me.  🙂  Have…

Penguin Awareness Day

Yes, such a thing exists.  I didn’t take any photos of penguins today, because I didn’t see any.  (HA)  I did however, see….. Have a good Thursday everyone!

Whiskers, bird pond and dusk

I took a very macro shot of Neva this morning, and at lunchtime, I also saw a lovely tabby.  The tabby reminded me of our late kitty Raleigh, who died just over 6 years ago at the age of 16.  I have a really soft spot for tabbies.  I also went for a walk to…

What my lens saw today….

…no other words needed.  (hope your week started well!)

Happy Adoptiversary Neva!

It was six years ago today that we adopted Neva.  January 17th is always special because of that.  We celebrated tonight with Cousin Helen, who came over for dinner.  I took some other shots when I was out and about today.  It was a rainy, cloudy day for the most part, but I was out…

Walk around the neighborhood

I ducked out between rain storms and had a little walk around our neighborhood.  I saw all kinds of things in people’s yards, faces on the back of benches, a playground, dogs with coloured nail tips, birds and some very cute squirrels.  I also found an old picture of myself.  I’m happy to share my…
