Be You!

August 31, 2009 – 7:32 pm

white_flowerI got some more good inspirational information to share with you all again today. I really have not had problems with this but I know a lot of people who do. Be you. Do not pretend to be someone. Like what you want and do what you want. If someone says something about anything you do not have to agree. So what if you are different. Everyone is. No one should be the same. We have our own interests, minds and bodies. We are all unique and special in our ways.

I have always been the person who stuck with my interests and thoughts even if people do not agree. People can laugh or hate if they do not like my interests or anything else. I am me and that is all that counts. I do not agree with people just to fit in and be liked. If you do not like me hell that is your problem. I do not need you to like me if you do not want to. The way I see it is its my life I will like and do what I please. Thank you!

I am not the kind of person who will dislike someone because they do not like or agree with something I said. If I say I like photography and you say you dont. Well that’s okay. Does not mean we wont get along. It just means one of our interests dont match. We will find something eventually we agree or like the same. But, I do dislike when people just follow what I say. If you do not agree do not follow what I say. Or if they finish a sentence of mine that I have not finished yet but was about to. Do not act like me. I am mine get your own personality. My life my words. So for you all out there who are scared to be someone else. Dont be. You will be loved for who you are and life will be so much better.

Like this flower? Its a pretty one in my garden that I took today. The weather has been marvelous today. Wow that sure is a big word for me but I guess thats how good the weather has been. Anyways, I am going to chillax and listen to music. Stay happy and do not forget to be yourself. I will like you for who you are. Peace.

Crazy Summer Weather

August 5, 2009 – 10:51 pm

White_FlowersYo yo yo! How is everyone doing on this Wednesday? Its hot here. Hot hot hot! Its been cloudy most of the day with some rain. Its been crazy weather this summer. A lot of rain for summer time. Also, even though its been like eighty eight degrees here today its been pretty cool here. Suppose to be seventy seven tomorrow which is great but will not feel like summer time. Crazy Summer Weather…

I am watching Dog the Bounty Hunter and its crazy how people can lie so well to protect themselves or their friends and family. Dog and his team are amazing. Just so brave and tough. Its great to have people out their to bust guys who need to be busted. Go Dog go! Catch them bad guys and girls.

So, i took this picture a long time ago. I do not remember where or when exactly but I think its pretty neat. Especially, with the water drops and the black background. Lovely! What do you think of this?

Well, I am going to finish watching Dog the Bounty Hunter and then relax. Stay cool and I hope to talk to you all soon. Peace.

A Not Ruined Sunday

August 2, 2009 – 10:58 pm

CactusHello! How is everybody’s Sunday fun day going? Mine was good. There was no pet parade today because it stormed most of the day. The day was not ruined though. Instead my mother and I went to my favorite antique store Scranberry Coop and then went to Walmart. I love Walmart! After that my mother and I went to a Chinese restaurant for dinner and it was yummy. When we got home we walked the three dogs around the lake together. So, overall the day was not ruined. We can always dress them up for other occasions. Plus, to me my dogs are always winners in my eyes. They do not need to win trophies or winners to prove it.

I took this photo a long time ago. I do not remember when or where but it is really a nice photo of a cactus. I think it was in a nursery or something. I just like the detailed of the spikes. Also, the lighting is nice too. Just an overall good photo. Please, let me know what you think. Critique and comment.

Well, hope your Sunday turned out well for you all as mine did even though my plans for the day changed. I am going to relax and listen to some music. Letting you all know we are staying at the cabin til Tuesday. Mom is taking some vacation days. I hope you all have a nice night and start of the week. Stay safe and will talk to you all soon. Peace.

Idiots!

July 31, 2009 – 11:49 pm

Bleeding HeartsHello everybody. It has been a big stormy day here today. I got my senior photo taken and it was fun. The guy will send the photos to my email and I will choose the best one. So, then I will post it or a few of them on here to share. After that was done with my mom, our three dogs and I came up to the cabin. It was crazy driving up here though. The rain was so hard coming down. All the cars were going so slow but atleast everyone was being safe and not driving like mad men. Its nice up here. Not too hot. Right now I am watching the movie Pure Country and surfing the net. I hope you have a nice night and stay cool.

So you all wanna know why I gave this blog post the title idiots? Okay, so a few days ago my mom left the camera at the camera store near us to get the sensor cleaned and I was suppose to get it back today. The thing is my mom got aa call today from the guy who works there and they accidentally mailed my camera to the Nikon store. What the hell! Seriously. Especially since I need it this weekend because my lake is having its usual summer Regatta with two of my dogs entered in the pet parade on Sunday. The guy let me borrow an old Canon Rebel. Its not a nikon but it will be okay to take some photos. I miss my camera. It is not fair at all. Now I am going to have to wait til Thursday or Friday for my camera. Well, I will live. Just pisses me off. Idiots!

Well, I do hope everyone had a nice Friday and be happy its the weekend now. So this is a photo I took awhile ago of bleeding hearts in my backyard. I do like this photo a lot. Just very bold and beautiful. I am just going to relax and enjoy the night. I will talk to y’all soon. Stay happy and healthy. Peace.

Globe Thistles

July 25, 2009 – 9:51 pm

globethistlesHello. Guess what. I finally groomed Lady. Her feet are still furry a little bit because she gets aggressive when you get near her feet. I will give her a break and then I will get her feet done another day. She looks pretty good though. Today my mom’s friend came up to the cabin to see it and to visit for a little bit. He is very funny and can always make me laugh. I call him the comedian. Another cool thing is he is a bicycler. He goes on really long bicycle rides on different routes. It was hot and humid here today but there was a nice breeze. Sunny and cloudy. Overall not too bad.

I decided that I need to get a lens cloth to clean the dirt of the camera parts. I am hoping that will fix the problem. I miss taking photography. Atleast I have a lot of photos that work well for daily photoblog posts.

I am watching The Suze Orman Show and Suze is so funny! She makes me laugh with her attitude but she very smart and informative about money. My favorite part is Can I Afford It. People call in and ask Suze if they can afford something specific they want to buy. She approves or denies it. Denied!

Do you like the photo? Its from the front garden at home and they are globe thistles. They are one of my favorite plants. Just round and spiky. They are very unique looking. I hope you all had a nice Saturday and did something fun or interesting. I will talk to you all soon. Peace.

Pretty Wednesday

July 22, 2009 – 8:38 pm

purpleconeflowerHello. I hope everyone had a nice Wednesday. The weather here has been nice today. Its been sunny with just some passing clouds. I did not do much today. I watched some television, walked and played with my dogs, took some photographs and did social media stuff on the internet. Felt like having a nice easy day. I did not feel like going on my usual bicycle ride today but if it is nice tomorrow I will probably take one. I also need to groom Lady. She is the only one left in the pack all fluffy. Lady needs her summer haircut.

Guess what. I will be eighteen in a month! Yes, my birthday is August twenty second. I do not have any big plans yet but I will do something. I am not the kind to have huge parties or anything. My mother and I will probably take a day trip somewhere or eat at one of my favorite places. We will see when it gets closer to my birthday. I can’t believe that I am going to be eighteen already. Time flies by when you are having fun.

Right now I am watching President Obama talk on the news about health care. I am not really paying attention because I am writing this post and plus politics do not interest me. Just too boring and confusing at times. I do not feel like going into what I think about Obama. All I am going to say is he seems like a good President for this country. Just happy that Bush is not President anymore. I do think Obama  can change this country for the better instead of making us fall and be hated more. Thats all about that because I do not like talking about politics and the economy. Done.

This is a photo of a purple cone flower that I took today in the front garden. I love these flowers. Just so pretty and the cones of the flowers are so cool to photograph. Great bold detail they have. I took a lot of photos today with my macro lense and only kept like ten or something. Today I was really picky about what photos I liked and didn’t like. This photo is one of my favorites today. What do you think about this photo?

Hope you all had a nice day and hope you enjoy my photography and writing. I am going to do some internet surfing and listen to music now. Enjoy and I will talk to you all soon. Stay happy and safe. Peace.

Black Eyed Susans

July 21, 2009 – 9:00 pm

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.

Beautiful Saturday

July 18, 2009 – 9:43 pm

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.

Hosta Wednesday

July 15, 2009 – 5:35 pm

Hostas So, this Wednesday has been going pretty well. Its a sunny clear day. This morning I woke up with Princess next to me which was lovely since she usually sleeps under my bed during the summer. She probably was on my bed because I groomed her yesterday so she does not have as much hair as she use to. Poor girl but she is looking good still.

After a little while from waking up I took my usual long bicycle ride on the path through some parks I am near. It takes about two hours total to go from my house to the end of the path and back again to my house. Its probably around 20 miles I bike ride. My mother got this little gadget to track how many miles I go but we haven’t attached it yet to my bicycle. It was a good ride. Not too many people out on the path because its during the week. I got home and felt refreshed and relaxed.

Summer is going well. Not a very hot summer yet but that is fine with me. Its hot but not mad hot. The weather is not bad. Some serious thunderstorms but mainly lovely weather.

The photo of these hostas was taken awhile ago but just opened it and edited it. Isnt it lovely?

Its amazing how lovely nature is. Just so beautiful and free. So many interesting plants to photograph and enjoy. Hope everyone has a lovely weekend and I will post again soon with more photos. Peace.

Spring

Spring time is here!

May 25, 2009 – 12:43 am
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.
