Annie, Another Journal page, Lamp lit for those that asked.

I posted this because Annie was so blame cute laying her head on the pillows.


She knows comfort when she sees it. :)

You can see a bit of the stairs, at her hind feet, that con built for her to get up and down on the bed now. It took awhile for her to get used to them but now she uses them all the time.

He used some wood he had laying around and we used some of our left over carpet we had to cover them.

Another journal page I worked on.


I drew some of the bags that sat in the carport before taking to the dump.


Then I picked up some Oak leaves on the ground and some pods off the Oak tree and brought them in to draw and watercolor them. This time no ink. I am not sure what these pods are, they have fuzzy things in them. I thought the seed was the Acorn. Does anyone know?


I was asked to take a picture of my nite lite on but my camera isn't working so hot these days.


Its on here.
I turned off the light and took another shot of it, but it really is lighter when on then this shot shows.
I ordered a new camera today on line. I think the days of my old one are about over.
I have had it for seven years now and its been a great camera, but now I am getting more and more blurred shots and there is a streak going through the back viewing window so I cant see my subject matter all that well, and its acting up downloading it to my computer now. I hope to get the new one this week and figure it out soon. Oh and its purse size which will make it much easier to take with me all the time. :)

Annie is so cute no matter what she is doing. I love your journal page. I don't know what the pod is but your leaves and acorns are great. I am hoping for a new camera for Christmas. Mine is working intermittently. It drives me crazy.

That light is terrific, and so is Annie. How clever to have stairs to get up and down, never thought of that for Snuffs- her legs are just too short tee hee. I know what you want for Xmas- no not more stairs- a new camera!!

Con is the BEST! How wonderful to think of making stairs for Annie.... and.... carpeting too!

Sweet Annie, knows her comfort level. Amazed but should not be that the stairs are covered in ROSE carpeting! Such class!

Your journal drawings/paintings are super good Cris. Love that you are doing this.

Cute lamp lit and congrats on new camera! You'll be happier with it.

which camera did you end up getting Cris?
My neighbor's step-daughter's Greyhound had a leg injury (attacked by a monster dog)- he has a cast for 6 weeks and is visiting so I'm thinking of Annie a bit...Poor thing.

annie looks so sweet lying there and Con is a treasure to make the stairs for her. love the oak leaves, very nicely done. my camera is a little larger than a cigarette pack. i do like it's portability.

Your sketches of the leaves and pods are really nice! And Annie is so cute - she looks so peaceful and content.
