Picture taken with my new camera. What a difference!

Took benny for a haircut and stopped by Border’s to read up on the camera’s. Then on a whim went to Best Buy and got my self a Nikon DSLR. It can function like a point and shoot digital camera but you have all the controls of a manual one. I can’t wait to test it out.

With an SD card in the camera, I can take it out and put it in my PPC phone and send the picture to this blog right away. This means I can post pictures from anywhere and write in it another time. One of the major reasons for a new camera. I think I’m set for a while. Now I just need to take some lessons on how to take nice pictures.

Really enjoyed the fireplace. Sat out by the pool again till the stars came out. The air was chilly but the fireplace kept us warm. We stared into the fire, talked while sipping a cup of tea. Benny was on my lap, and tido on leo’s. I could do this for the rest of my life everyday as Leo said even though I’m fighting a cold.

The throat is flaming but Dayquil took care of it. Called off work again, better to keep the germs to myself. But I’m going to take benny for a haircut. He’s got knots all over, I’m afraid he’s gonna come back looking like a big mouse again. But that should keep him cool for the summer.

Firewood may be delivered this weekend and thinking about getting those cast iron lawn chairs and table to replace my broken plastic ones. I’m almost set for the summer.

Staying home sick today. Tido is keeping me company. DayQuill did its job to relieve the aches and pain so I was able to take a nap and get some rest. Still keeping an eye on the Webtrends though.

With a lot of fuss, finally got a pic from my Nikon camera. Guess I need to take some lessons on how to take pictures.

I started to feel sick as the day went on. Sore throat got worse, backache started. Took some mega Vitamin C hoping to ward off whatever it is. It didn’t help much. By 2:30p, I wanted to go home and lay down. But logs are not all on the new server, and the only profile was having problem, and all of a sudden, questions and problems flew in like a storm. I couldn’t get out till after 5pm. Barely craweled in the car and got home with aches all over. Probably a cold is coming on. Tido cuddled with me for a nap and now I’m up and still achy.

Maybe I’ll get a sick day tomorrow.

It’s amazing if you just live in your own world and don’t poke your head out. I just went to ‘colorsknits’ site. Man, those pictures are fantastic. Then I come back to my site, wo, did I say the quality of the pictures was not bad? I take it back. It’s horrible. I’ve got to use a real camera to take pictures. The pocket PC phone is very, I mean, very convenient. You take a picture and send it directly to the blog. But they look aweful, fuzzy and dingy.
