P365 – 042307





Chips, the little girl kitten, has her surgery late last week. Her
stitches are now fascinating to her…and they do stick out a little
bit to assist with the temptation.

I thought she would come back from the vet visit a little rundown and
quiet. However, she is running things down but not rundown herself.

Stitches come out next week. Her fur will take a little longer to
come back.

P182.5 – Halfway through this project

April 24 marks the 6 month point on my Project 365 Photo a day posting here at Techy-Feely. Thought I would do a quick rundown on some stats/thoughts. For my 3 readers! You know I love you.

  • I had hoped the 512 MB SD card would last for the 6 months but I had to reformat it on April 21. So close.
  • I have posted 180 photos to Flickr in that time
  • I have missed 19 days with 18 of those during the time I lost the camera. Not sure about that stray missing day in November.
  • I have probably taken more photos of the kittens than I would have guessed. But, they are cute and this is the first year.
  • The rechargable batteries were a great investment. They last longer in the camera and charge fast.
  • My camera is quickly becoming less popular on the Flickr camera stats page. I guess it is no longer available so I am getting “old school” by the second.

Hope you are enjoying the project as much as I am in doing it. Some days, getting the photo is a challenge and others I have a hard time deciding which one is “the one” for the day. (And, some days I just post more – it is my project so I can make the rules)

Talking ’bout my generation

For those who know how much I loves me some cover tunes. I thought this one was particularly good. Got it via Coverville.

Another Survey – What kind of cookie are you??


You Are a Chocolate Chip Cookie


Traditional and conservative, most people find you comforting.

You’re friendly and easy to get to know. This makes you very popular – without even trying!

Back in March 1999, this skinny scared dog showed up in our yard upon returning from a trip to Hawaii. We named her Haleakala and on April 22, 1999 (Earth Day) she came inside the house for the first time. So, we declared Earth Day as her unofficial birth day. She got some treats from a vendor at yesterday’s Earth Fest. She loves them!!!

At the Earth Fest today, the Vespa folks make a compelling case for using a scooter for much of our transportation around town. It gets 60 mpg and will go about 60 mph. It could work for getting to and from school. Hmmmm, reflecting on a Vespa. Or, at least with this photo – we are reflected IN a Vespa.

Leading up to the big Earth Fest tomorrow. We are a Green Power customer with our utility company. I also like this logo.
