Day 90: out of my hand

A day or two ago, I got Bear to eat a carrot out of my hand. Here I am attempting the same thing for the camera; however, Bear only sniffed at it this time.

I actually like how this picture turned out ...

end-of-month edit: Whew! I did about one-third of the month today! (One-third was done while I was in Highland, leaving the first third done semi-on-time.)
And I only posted 46 pictures this month (if my count is correct ... normally I just let the computer count for me by letting it tell me how many files are in the month's folder, but since I spent time in Highland posting pictures, I didn't have all the pictures in the right folder, so ... ), which gives me 189 pictures so far this year. And, I'm not going to stress out about having a no-picture-day this month, even though February's goal for the month was to not have any no-picture-days, because I think I did pretty well, only having one no-picture-day, considering ... not only did I attend a funeral/viewing, but also I spent time in Highland, and the past few days, I've been getting ready for Script Frenzy.
My record is still 15 pictures on Day 49; that one's going to be hard to beat.
But now I'm ready for April, and since I'm going to be writing like crazy, I apologize ahead of time if my pictures fall behind again ...

Day 89: fuzzy animals

Not the best picture, but it was the best I had ...

Notice, if you can see it, the number of cats.

Day 87: problems with focus

So here is a lovely picture of the street ... I somehow managed to focus on the street instead of on the buds ... blah, blah, blah.

Day 86: the tour continues

Here's my room; it's a bit messy.

Day 85: cute cavies!

It's an action shot as they run from the camera!


And the two of them feasting ... mmm, veggies ...


And then a decent shot of Bear looking over his feast.


It was a cage-cleaning day, so they got to get out and run around. Actually, I'd put them pack in the cage and left the wire top on, because they usually just cower in their hidey-hole, and went to fill up their water bottle, or something, and when I came back, they were playing on my floor! So I just let them. I made sure they had a hidey-hole, and a little dish of water, and I got them a veggie feast, and they were so happy.

Day 84: some more spring flowers

Apologies for the fuzziness, the other was worse.
But yay tulips! I love tulips. They are one of my favorite flowers.
I really do love spring, because so many of my favorite flowers bloom then. (With the notable exception of the fuzzy ball flowers, so-named (by Nick and I) because around Mother's Day, the bud is this round fuzzy ball, like a peach. I think they're actually poppies. I'll take pictures when I see them again; I think there are some up the street from my house.)

Day 83: my hair, again

Despite the fact that I'm wearing a bathrobe, I actually like how this picture turned out. I honestly couldn't have planned it better.

Day 82: no pictures

This was the day of my friend's viewing. I've written a little about Kelly in my personal blog, so, suffice it to say, his death was the only thing that could stop me from achieving my goal of no no-picture-days in March.
It was just a busy kind of day ... Mom dropped me off at home, where I spent time making sure the cavies were okay (I brought them with me to Highland, but had brought them back on Sunday, because I had to come all the way out for choir and game, and they had been alone all night), and unpacking my stuff, and doing dishes, and then the viewing was in the evening, and when I got home, I didn't even think about the fact that I hadn't taken a picture.

Day 81: yet more spring flowers

I love these bushes. They're all over SLC, and I have no idea what they are, but they're so bright and cheerful ... I've taken tons of pictures of these flowers during my time in SLC.

Day 80: mexico

Things my parents bought in Mexico. I wish this was a better picture, because they're cool.

Day 79: monkey business

Again, just before bed, this time in my parents' bed, where my little brother Joseph was apparently watching a movie with his stuffed monkey.

Day 78: babysitting

My parents were still home, so I slept with my sister Brooks. This is her just before bed. I took another version with a flash, but, despite the low-light fuzziness of this picture, I thought this one turned out better then the flash-one.

Day 76: my room, a tour

Just a quick picture of my room, a continuation of the tour of earlier. Because I had nothing else ...

Day 75: spring

Here is our front yard, anticipating tulips. Yay spring!


Here is our back yard, anticipating garden. Yay spring!


And here is my altar, anticipating the Equinox. Yay spring!

Day 74: it's a jungle

Andy gave me this plant. Isn't it cute? It makes my bedside table feel like a jungle.

Day 73: snow at night

This is both better than I thought it was on the camera, and not as good as in real life. It just looked really cool.

Day 72: growing things

It's a crocus. One of the ones I planted.

Day 71: boys are messy ...

... no matter species they are. I always come home to find that they've knocked their water bottle off the side of the cage, or something, but this was just something ...
