Black Eyed Susans

blackeyedsusans Hello. How was everyone’s Tuesday? Mine was fine and normal. I woke up around six thirty in the morning which was really early for me and couldn’t go back to sleep. Then I lost power later for awhile since of a storm but I got chores done while the lights were out and played solitaire with a deck of cards. Even though the electricity came back on the rain continued and the dogs got soaked in the backyard. Princess still went chasing after the chipmunk and birds but Lady and Oliver just wanted to come inside. My sinus headache has not been too bad which is good. Overall just a nice summer day.

Did I tell you that my special girl Princess pooped on my foot today? Yes, the perfect dog who is housetrained and all. She came into the kitchen where I was and started to do her poop dance and then I was pulling her outside and I felt a warm blob on my foot…POOP! I keep laughing everytime I share this story. I am laughing right now. LOL. I still love her so much. Nothing can change my love for my special girl Princess. Do not worry Lady and Oliver I love you two also very much. My dogs make such a great pack. The best pack out there.

Right now I am watching the movie Mamma Mia on tv. I saw it in the theater when it just came out and I also have it on dvd. It is such a great funny movie with wonderful music. Like musicals? You must see it. I am singing the songs right now. Join in and lets all sing together.

I decided for the social media/tech/internet blog the blog title is going to be Aivz Tech, Annas Tech or Social Anna. Which one do you like best?

Here is a photo I took yesterday of Black Eyed Susans in the front garden. Yellow and black go so well together. I think its a pretty nice nature photograph. I took a bunch and this is one of my favorites. I am going to finish watching the move and surf the net more. I will probably crash in a few hours. I will talk to you all soon and have a nice night.

Sunny Sunday :)

flowers Hello, I am home from the cabin. Came home a little while ago and now doing my daily photoblog post. On the way home we stopped for some Dairy Queen and I had a chocolate chip blizzard. Oh it was so good. By the way it was a lovely weekend. Not too hot and it was mostly sunny with just some passing clouds. I did some driving with my mom since I still have my permit. Luckily I did not hit anything or anyone. Overall it was a nice happy weekend.

Now I am just home relaxing, surfing the internet and listening to music. If you want to know what I like to listen to check out my last.fm. I have a vast variety of music I listen to because I am open minded and not picky. Oh, also to share with you all if you know I have twitter and I made a new account just for my photography interest called AnnasAngle. Recognize the name? I chose the name to go with my photoblog. I am so creative. I still need to make those two blogs. That is my goal for tomorrow or this week sometime.

My dogs are all well. I need to groom Lady this week since she is the only one still all fluffy. Plus she has some little mats that need to come out. Princess is still limping a little but since she is using it still I am not too worried. If it continues I might end up taking her to the vet to make sure it will heal properly. Oliver is happy as ever. Just being his bouncy curious self.

Do you like the flowers? I took this photo yesterday along with a few others. I liked how this one came out. The only real part I do not like is the gray road in the background. Besides that I think it came out pretty nice. Please critique and comment your opinions about it. Hope you all had a good weekend and are ready for the week ahead. I am ready to take some bicycle rides and more photography. I will talk to you all soon. I hope you enjoy my post and peace out.

Beautiful Saturday

Beautiful FlowerHowdy everyone. Its been a beautiful Saturday which is great. This morning we came up to the cabin and dropped off the two photos for the state fair photo contest. Do not worry I have the photos ready to share with you soon. It is lovely up here and I am happy. Not too hot and with blue clear skies. Thier is a perfect breeze blowing through the trees right now. I do not have a sinus headache anymore and I am feeling good overall.

Since it was lovely weather today I just had to spend some time outside. I took a few photos of flowers and my mother I need to edit still. Besides that I walked the dogs and then relaxed in my room working on some social media things on the internet. Tonight for dinner my mom and I went to Friendly’s for dinner and I had my usual chicken strips basket that was so yummy. Now I am home and chillin and surfing the net. My poor Princess is still in pain with her hurt foot but she still wants to chase those cats.

Isn’t this a great photo? I do not remember where I took this flower but I think it was in my mom’s garden. Anyways, its such a great photo and I hope you enjoy it. Please let me know what you think about it. Critique any of my photography. Any advice helps. I do hope you all had a great Saturday and enjoy your night. Stay safe and happy. Peace.

Hot Humid Thursday

Pretty FlowerHey everyone. Its one hot and humid rainy Thursday here in New Jersey. Surprisingly I woke up around six thirty in the morning which is very rare for me. I am a night owl which means I am up real late and sleep til ten or eleven in the morning. After my mother left for work I took Oliver and Lady for a walk. Then I came back and took Princess for a shorter walk because her foot is still hurting her from chasing a chipmunk in the backyard the other day. She is a hunter of the pack. Besides that I have just been doing some chores around the house and relaxing trying to stay cool.

What else…

Well, I am hoping to start my dog blog today and my social media technology blog today or tomarrow. My dog blog is going to be called Dog Dog Doggie and I have not decided on the social media blog yet. I was thinking maybe aivztech, techgurl101, technet or something else. If you have any ideas for a name for the social technology internet blog please share. I love suggestions. Also, I have been thinking about how I need to record more videos for youtube. I have been slacking on that and seriously need to get back to it. So, also if you have any ideas for videos please share.

Lastly, this photo was taken at the cabin in my mothers garden bed. Isn’t it pretty? Just bold and beautiful. I like the composition depth of field (DOF). Well, that’s all for now. Stay cool and safe and I will talk to you all soon I hope. Peace.

Schools out for summer…schools out…not forever

bumble beeToday was my very last day of school as a junior and now glorious summer starts. I do not have any big plans for the summer of 09 yet. All I know is there is no school to attend and I can just have fun and enjoy life. This summer I am taking this photography class which is going to be fun. I am always happy to learn more about photography and the opportunities out there. My mother and I will be going up to the cabin a lot which will be fun. I love being out in nature and swimming in the lake. The dogs love the long walk or runs around the lake when we are up there. Summer time is here and I am ready to enjoy it!

So what do you think of this bumble bee photo? I took it today when the sun was out for a few minutes before it got cloudy again and started to rain. I was in the front yard looking at the colorful flowers with my camera and the macro lense attached and saw this opportunity to capture this busy bee. This is the first photo I took of a bumble bee before because they scare me. I rather stay as far away from bees, wasps and anything else that buzzes and stings.  I was thinking that this photo could of been better if the bee was not set right in the middle of the photo. Besides that I think this photo came out pretty nice.

Spring

Spring time is here!

Pear Tree Blooming
Pear Tree Blooming

Right now I am sitting on the porch at our cabin listening to the birds and neighbors chit chatitng away. My mother is next to me reading a book and listening to neighbors. What a snoop!  Really I am the snoop of the family. Plants and flowers are blooming in every direction you look. My three dogs are napping around me. I saw a wild cat that was young and had beautiful markings. It is probably a kitten we saw last year. The cat looked pregnant so there might be kittens soon romping around. I have country music playing on the television. I sure love the country life. It is always wonderful to get away from the busy non stopping life in the suburbs.

The photo is a pear tree at our house. Blooming beautiful flowers and now their are pears all over it. We do not use pesticides so that means bees come around and pollinate the tree. When the pears get bigger the squirrels steal them from us. Those darn squirrels are always so hungry.

Today I will be doing some gardening for my mother. Getting close to nature is always such a wonderful experience. The only thing that makes me shiver are the bees buzzing around me. I hope I do not get stung today.

Its memorial weekend so do not forget to put your flags out. I have mine hanging outside. My grandpa was a veteran of WWII. Also, do not forget all the soldiers out there right now fighting to protect our country. They risk their lives for us.

Enjoy your weekend and look around and appreciate all the things around you.
