Ready for regatta weekend

This weekend is Regatta weekend at the lake where our cabin is at. They have boat races, different competitions and entertainment. I like to watch some of it but there is one activity I participate in. Got any clue what it might be? The pet parade! That consists of dressing up your pets in the best outfit to try and win. As you can see I spent my afternoon grooming Oliver. He needed it badly and he is going to be in the pet parade this weekend. Guess what he is going to be. Just look at him and think about it. I will tell you after the parade when I have some photos.

My father is my mother

First off, I want to wish all the fathers out there a happy fathers day. I hope you got your lawnmower, toolbox or alone time that you wanted. If not then what did you get?! As you all know my mom is my dad all in one. Isn’t that neat? Its pretty sweet. I do like the rare species in life. Anyways, I do not celebrate Father’s Day. I am perfectly happy with just my mom. Except, it would be nice to have a man around sometimes. Like when we put a chandelier up in the dining room. My mom can get the lights on but couldn’t turn them off. Also, when we had piping explode in the bathroom and we had to call an emergency plumber late at night. Now those are some memories we just laugh about now. How about when a boy wants to take me out on a date? A father would be good to scare them so much that they pee in there pants so they will be a gentleman. And if you plan on taking my mom on a date, I better approve you first. Also, she must be home by twelve! No sooner and no later. Hehe.

Power out. Power on!

We had a huge storm all Saturday that consisted of lots of rain and really bad wind.  Branches falling and trees coming down in certain areas. Mom and I did not leave the house in that weather. The lights were flickering all day long and I was so hoping that we would not lose power. My hoping did not work. Around seven-thirty at night the power went out. Which is not unusual with storms here but it does usually come back on in a few hours. Except when I woke up in the morning it was still off. The thing is it was not just our neighborhood who lost power. About everyone in our county lost it. Now that’s a lot of people! I was not so thrilled when my mom told me it might not be fixed until Tuesday but Sunday turned out to be a fun day. I had good bonding time with my mom. My mom and I drove around seeing the trees down and we ate dinner by candle light. We talked all day long so it was well worth losing the power. It takes you out of your usual routine which can be pretty nice and relaxing. The power did come back on Sunday night around eleven. It was fun when it lasted but it is great to have the power back on.

Reflections trees

Reflection of Trees

Reflection_of_treesIts getting colder and colder here in Jersey. I am not happy about it either. Please make the warm weather come back. I am missing it. Oh my gosh. Do you wanna know what I heard? Its already snowing in Colorado. Eww. I definately not ready to hear about snow yet. That should not hit us yet for awhile. Hopefully.  Time to turn on the heat and curl up in a blanket.

Tonight my mom and I watched The Office. It is one of my favorite television shows. Just funny and suprising. I am so happy. Pam and Jim got married tonight. it was so sweet and funny. If you watch the show you know who I am talking about. If you do not watch the show I recommend you catch up and start. Its just one of those shows you like it or hate it. You understand it or it confuses it. Ah, I love Thursday night comedy.

Yay, its almost Friday! I have a four day weekend too! Yup. I have Monday and Tuesday off. Monday is Columbus Day and Tuesday is some kind of teachers day. I am excited. Do not really have any big plans yet except for Sunday. We are going to close up the cabin for the winter. My mom and I will make a nice day out of it. Do fun things this weekend. Maybe some clothes shopping. Maybe put more blonde streaks in my hair again. We will see what the weekend brings us.

Reflections. They make some awesome photographs. I took this awhile ago and just love the reflection and composition. What do you think? Anyways, I am going to relax and enjoy the rest of the night before sleeping. Listen to some music and surf the net a little bit. Just relax because I finished my homework. Hope to talk to you all soon. Let me know what you think of the photo. Peace,

Signs Winter

Weekend Adventures

baby_mouseSo, this weekend I went up to the cabin with my mother and my dogs. It started out like any normal weekend up at the cabin. Just hanging out. Then Princess discovered something. She was in her hunting mode. Kept sniffing and making little woofs. Then I opened the cabinet and look what i discovered. Baby mice! They were definitely just  born with their eyes still sealed shut. I am not sure how many are in there because there is a lot of fluff in there for a mouse nest. It was pretty freaky at first because I did not think I would really find anything and then you open a cabinet and find naked little mice. Just a shocker.

PrincessPrincess pretty much guarded the cabinet the whole time while we were there. She so badly wanted to get in there. The baby mice kept making little chirps during the day and night. It was pretty cool to hear them. They were probably calling momma mouse for food. Is momma alive? Oh yes I saw her. I opened the cabinet before I went to bed to see them and I saw momma run to the back and hide. So momma is around and taking good care of her babies. That makes me happy that they will be alright.

dinnerAll that action in the afternoon made me hungry. So, last night for dinner my mom and I went to a Chinese Japanese restaurant near our cabin. I love food! Anyways, I had a chicken teriyaki dinner box. It is what I always eat when I go there.  It is sooooo yummy! These california rolls came with it and I sure gobbled them down. I ate the whole box of food and I was stuffed when I was done. It was a nice yummy dinner with my mom. Ginger! Confused about that? Do not worry about it. It is an inside joke with my mom.

princesshaircutSo, if you did not know my dogs are infested with fleas. Ew right? Disgusting and annoying. So, before I gave Princess a flea bath I shaved Princess down today. It makes it easier to get all the fleas off her. Lets just say Princess was not very happy about it. She wanted to just escape and hide. Princess is such a patient girl. Did you know Princess had this almost exact same haircut when we adopted her? Yes, those eyes are what grabbed my moms heart when she saw Princess on petfinder. Princess seems to be feeling better after her flea bath I gave her. Lady is next on the list to groom. She will be a pain. Do not worry Lady I love you.

princesshuntkitchenPrincess is a such a hunter. Before we headed home she discovered that a mouse lives in this cabinet in the kitchen. She wanted to get it so badly. So, she kept sniffing and scratching at the cabinet to try to get in. Sorry Princess I rather you not get bit by a mouse. But, thanks for discovering more mice for us. These mice are lucky that my mother and I love animals or these little rodents would be dead.

So, I hope you enjoyed my adventures I had this weekend. I sure did. Pretty fun and exciting. I cant believe school is tomorrow. Someone make the weekend longer. Ugh. Alright I will go and survive. Anyways, I am going to relax and listen to some music. Surf the net a little and just enjoy the night before its gone. Then tomorrow is school which means time to party it up. Hope you all had a nice weekend. Talk to you all soon. Peace.

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.

TGIF!

White Princess NoseI know everyone is excited that it’s Friday and I you should be. My friday was long and slow. Not like I did anything but last night I had a really bad sinus headache and I could not sleep. I was up the whole night and today. I could of passed out a few hours ago but I did not want to waste the day sleeping. I am so thick headed and stubborn. Anyways, besides that I did chores around the house and worked with social media stuff on the computer. That was my exciting Friday.

Tomarrow morning my mom, the dogs and I are going up to the cabin. On the way there we are dropping off two photos I took for a photo contest at the State Fair in August. I will make a post with the two photos that I entered into the contest soon. Another thing is I have not started either of the two blogs yet. Maybe I will do that this weekend at the cabin if I can still “barrow” internet up there. I think for the social blog I am gonna call it aivztech. I mean yea its not like a simple title but it represents me. I am stick thinking and always taking more ideas.

Like the photo? Its my special girl Princess. Look at that adorable big pink nose she has. I love her so much. She was on my bed and I did a whole set of her but this was really the only one I liked. Yes, I am very picky with photos. I can take a hundred photos and only keep ten. Just the way I am. Which is not bad when it comes to photography because all I want is the best. So it was dark but I brightened it and I like the look. Let me know what you think. I hope you all have a fun safe weekend and TGIF! Peace.

An Early Friday Morning

homemade_lil_pizza Goodmorning everyone. Its a nice friday morning and right now I am watching a busy squirrel on a wire outside my window. It amazes me how well they can balance on their little feet. I woke up at 6:45 which is rare for a non morning person like me but I am awake and decided to enjoy the morning life. The birds are chirping away all around the house. They sound so lovely and are great singers. I let the dogs out in the backyard and they were surprised that I was the one letting them out instead of my mom.  Oliver looks so cute and small with his summer haircut I gave him yesterday. Do not tell my two other dogs but I am bringing the clippers and other grooming supplies with me to the cabin so they can get their summer cuts too.

My mom, our three dogs and I are going to the cabin today for the weekend which will be nice and fun. I am going to take lots of photography and walks with the dogs around the lake. There is a lot more nature out there to photograph and enjoy. I love the country. Filled with wildlife and peacefulness. I will see if I have internet up there. I have been “borrowing” some from one of my neighbors. If I do not have internet up their it will be sad but I will have to wait til sunday evening to post again.

The photo is of a little home made pizza I made last night for myself. It looks good doesn’t it? Well it was really yummy.  I can cook some things. Pizza, pasta, soup, pasta, cookies and pasta.

I hope everyone has a lovely weekend if I do not talk to you during it. Stay happy and healthy.
