Today seems to be an odd combination of overcast rain and sunshine. I'm not complaining though, the warmth is welcome after yesterday's disaster. I took this shot through the truck window while we made a quick stop to the grocery store.

Here's what the background looks like (though it was taken outside before getting into the truck, so the colours are a bit different):

I don't know how these little guys survive winter, those fur coats must be the warmest ever. I couldn't feel my face or hands only about 15 minutes into a walk around the harbourfront - those lake winds are fierce! The focus is not as sharp as I would like, but it was extremely windy and my hands are not the steadiest when they're numb. Regardless, at least I came home with one shot that's half decent, so the walk wasn't for nothing.

The humidifier has been running nonstop the past few days because the heating has been drying out the apartment so bad I can literally see static sparks flying off the cats while they walk across the carpet. This has resulted in some pretty wet windows, but it makes for interesting textures.

I took this shot at the same time, but didn't want to post it as the main photo just because the framing and look is so similar to the last post. I still like it anyway.

Yikes. This blog is chugging away at a snail's pace right now, for shame! The holidays have been non-stop busyness since they started, but I have the next two days to myself and am hoping to get something new and fresh in here. I'd be more unhappy about my lack of progess but the fact is I've been spending time with a lot of wonderful people lately, and so it is all for good reason. My husband and I are very blessed to have great family on both sides, and no crazy mother-in-laws either (unless this is something that develops later on in life perhaps? haha)!

So Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays and Happy New Year!

Laser...laser...LASER CAT!

An accidental tribute to Andy Samberg and Bill Hader's Laser Cats digital short.

(yes, my cat has one weird eye, it's slightly clouded over and blocks the light from the flash...he's a sweetie though, just a lil' funny lookin'.)

Tired...tired...pants on fire...wait, something's not right with that. Too much fun and not enough sleep for me.

It's been a while since I've posted a token sunset, so I figured I'm probably due for one, right?

A little snapshot story...

...there was one little ball that started it all...



 ...maybe I just need a new perspective...



...hmm...my bum is up as high as it will go, and yet still somehow this ball is out of reach...



...okay, new attack strategy, bet he won't even see me coming...



...TADA! SUCCESS! ...wonder what my sister thinks of all this...bet she's sooo jealous...



(um...this one speaks for itself.)
