  • I have a new toy.

    fisheye monsters

    A fish eye lens for my camera.

    fisheye feet

    The obligatory feet picture.

    fisheye cooper feather boa

    I haven't gotten to use it much yet, but I did get to harass the kids a little with it.

    Cooper and Grandma

    fisheye charlie face

    Charlie face...

    He is going to hate that I posted this.

    fisheye road and trees

    I was trying to get more curve to the trees... I need to play with it more to figure out how to use it advantageously.

    bakery fisheye

    I don't think I've ever posted a picture of the bakery before so...

    Here's the bakery.

    I know it's kind of a silly thing, but I've always wanted a fisheye.

     I'd considered buying a toy camera, but I hated the idea of going the whole film route, I am a digital gal through and through.

    It was well worth the thirty dollars it cost me. I will get that in enjoyment from it in no time.

    What kind of toys do you have?

  • OOPS

    I didn't realize I had let so long go by... 

    Cooper and I had a date tonight. We went to Sparky's diner and had greasy hamburgers, deep fired mushrooms and a giant chocolate shake with a cherry on top.

    As I sat there watching my five year old try to lick whipped cream off of his forehead, I wanted my camera... I thought, what a nice blog this would make...

    Of course I didn't have my camera... *sigh*

    I'm happy about the fact that I wanted to blog anyway.

    Have you ever had a period of blogging burnout?

  • Well the ickiness went through the entire household.

    I thought I was lucky and it had passed me by, but when I slowed down for my day off from work... it caught up to me.

    Now it's all gone... I think.
    Everyone's feet are in good health.

  • "You are the embodiment of the information you choose to accept and act upon. To change your circumstances you need to change your thinking and subsequent actions."

    ~Adlin Sinclair

    I have decided to stop waiting for a hammer...

    I know that Heavenly Father helps those that help themselves and here I am whining about not being inspired  and what should I do about it...

    I am going to make myself work through it!

    That's my plan.

    I knew this before... This is why I have the Perfect Photo Search, it gives me something to look for when I can't come up with ideas for pictures.

     I am going to apply the same thing to my art.

    I am just going to work through it. I have a ton of projects in my studio just waiting to be worked on... everyday I am going to make myself do a little bit and see what happens.

    Even if the creativity isn't flowing now, I bet that it will follow, I just need to force myself into that head space.

    So that's my plan...

    And, if forcing myself to do something happens to provide me with something to blog about, well, that's even better...

    For me anyway, I don't know about you guys,

    I suppose you will suffer through it because you like me, you really like me!

About Me

  • I am a glass artist and photographer trying to live life as the domestic engineer. Unfortunatly I'm not very good at it. Oh well as long as everyones still breathing and there's no blood shed at the end of the day I consider it a success. I have three monsters and a husband... I am very fond of them all.

Pulse

  • Just got back from the grocery store and now I'm kicking myself for not getting some chocolate... I NEED some chocolate...
  • At  hospital to see Grandpa, old man in the next bed kept flashing his junk, it wasn't on purpose. WHY don't they let them wear undies???
  • I'm getting flowers but my husband didn't send me any... It is driving me a little nuts not knowing who they are from.

    I was going to leave you a message telling you i have a circle up, but the message box wouldn't load properly... So I am looking at your chatboard and I am thinking, "Who get's up at 3 am to look at ham anyway???" OH! That would be my long lost sister Josephine!

    hey Angi- I thought of a place for Beth's next visit. South Manitou Island. There are some great picture op's. Have you ever been? Maybe you can talk your dad into taking you over or you can take the ferry from Leland. Jay, Mary and I went a few years ago. It was a great day. There is a ship wreck
