My violets & strawberries that are looking quite happy despite my half-neglect. And I THINK those are daffodils there. They’re all over the place here, but I never remember seeing them bloom O.o
I thought my violets were as good as dead later last year, but apparently not ^-^
And the daffodil leaves are really neat. I think I like them, even without the flowers on them.
Today we went after a letterbox in a park and I took some pics with my shit-tacular camera. Man I’ve been cussing a lot lately O.o I know I’m not terribly happy but I should be. Hmm… I must be consuming too much sugar again.
Most came out blurry, but these are some of the most savory:
ETA Tue Apr 15th, 3:46 AM. IT’S A POTATO BUG! omfg. Now I know why everyone always looked at me weirdly when I said potato bugs were my favorite bugs and I thought they were cute and I always played with them when I was little. Turns out they were actually WOODLOUSES.
First off, I’ve been reading everyone’s comments about book vrs canvas. I think I’m going to make my own book (first one ever!) and do 27 spreads that way :)
ANYWAY. Was out in the “garden” this weekend doing some digging. I need some help! What the FUCK is this???
This thing was the BIGGEST BUG I’VE SEEN IN MY LIFE! I SWEAR. I think this thing was like 4 inches long. Maybe 5. maybe 6!
I was born and raised in Eugene (Centralish Oregon)- all I ever saw were little centipedes, little millipedes, “daddy long legs” (which I’ve found out isn’t what they really are?) somewhat big black beetles… rarely saw butterflies. Dragonflies were even more rare. Saw tons of honey bees, grasshoppers, crickets… and a variety of other smaaalll things. So imagine my shock when I dug this bad boy up.
Whitey said they’re common around here (Southern Oregon).
So yeah. Can anybody name that insect? :-p
I’m nick’ing him Kricketune. Yes I’ve been playing too much Pokemon :-p I hope he managed to bury himself again. I tried to hep but the little turd was really pissy after I dug him up. I also saw a larva sort of thing near the digspot. Looked like a white caterpillar sort of thing.
Okay, just 5 shots from recent letterboxing adventures.
i just love autumn… the colors and crispness of the air… especially when being up in the mountains.
funky cat studio
anyway, i’ve been busily working on my online shops… i have two. one at a place where other people sell their homemade stuff (you can do VERY well there if you update everyday and offer cool stuff) and the other is at my own domain… i’ve noticed people do well when they sell here, there, everywhere LOL
haven’t made any sales yet because i haven’t done much for advertising. i feel like i’m never “ready enough”!
dental health stuff
i had a dental appointment Tuesday. all they wanted to do was take impressions. they are VERY kindly and understand how sensitive my teeth are, so they doped me up REALLY good. if they did any -actual- work on me, they’d double the dose. its so weird… because there’s just bits and pieces i remember very vaguely and there was one thing i remembered that popped up just out of nowhere. it was really kind of uncomfortable, but its not a big deal.
well that’s all thats been going on here… just trying to make as much stuff as possible. a lot of it is trial and orror, research, pricing, trying to figure out how to ship stuff with little to no money LOL its like a GAME… stressful but kind of fun.
Oy thar.
We’ve got a new hobby. I’m so obsessed with it, I’ve given it its own website.
I’ve typed up so many times what its all about, I’m sick of it :-p
But seriously people. Letterboxing is great fun. Every element of it is fun.
I’ll also point you out to letterboxing.org. I hope to convert as many people as I can to Letterboxers. Whitey and I spent the last 5 days of his vacation driving to and fro, hunting boxes and we STILL didn’t get enough. FINALLY, something we can do together.
And Whitey REALLY needed a hobby.
I have some posts in mind about Britney Spears and Sarah Silverman.
One I adore, the other I abhor.
Take a wild guess ;-)
