New Toy






I got a new toy. I finally broke down and bought myself a decent digital camera. There was really nothing wrong with my old camera except that it had out lived its time and I wanted to be able to take it with me in my purse instead of carrying around a suitcase every time I wanted to take pictures. So, I splurged and bought myself a Nikon CoolPics P4. For me and what I do this is great. I also bought myself a Nikon N65 SLR also. Don't know what got in to me but I have always wanted a more professional camera. Here are a couple of pictures I took with the new digital of course they are of two of our dogs, Indigo and Dakota. I got on the floor with them to take pictures on their level. Dakota has a place under his eye where one of the cats smacked him and it has caused a skin tag of sorts. Weird!! The vet doesn't seem to think its anything worth worrying over. I can't wait to try out the SLR on the kids and see the cool things I can do with it. I love taking pictures and have always wanted to be better at it. I work with a girl who is really good at it and I wish she would use the talent. She says she is going to teach me!!!
WooHoo!!

On the knitting and crochet front, I'm working on 3 different projects. I'm knitting a pink and black purse for the daughter of a girl that works here. She saw the last one I made for my daughter and wanted on for herself. Her favorite colors were pink and black so that's what I picked out for her. I'm using Lamb's Pride worsted in RPM Pink and Black. On my hooks I have a shrug and a tank top I'm working on. When I finish I will post pictures of those later.

I guess things have settled down a bit for you and you're able to pursue some hobbies-good for you.
