Stopping the Slacking!

Okay, so was all excited to get my computer up and working and yet, still no blog posts!  You would think I gave up blogging for Lent, which is not the case (I gave up sweets and so far, so good).  Part of the problem is I need to get on the phone with our Internet provider to get the wireless connection up and running and that is a process that I dread.  It is really hard for me to be connected to the modem via a cord in the office with the rest of the troops running around the house. The other part is that things have just been busy here and at the end of the day, I am too darn tired and catching up seems overwhelming.  So the "to-do" pile gets bigger.  I am hoping to spend some time in the car tomorrow, while Doug is driving of course, to write some catch-up posts.  Here are a few recent pictures until I get back up to speed...

Caleb taking a shot at basketball.  I do plan on writing a full post on basketball soon.  I probably should write 10 considering the amount of time we have spent at the gym lately.

Brynn peeking back in from the snow covered deck during the dreaded patch-hours!  She hates those patches and everyday we go through the same speech as to why they are important.  Both of us are hoping that on March 18th, the doctor says "No more patching needed!"

Yucky weather has forced basketball indoors. And somehow, the net has ended up in my bedroom. Not sure what the purpose of the glasses is.

I've slacked on my photography, one picture a day, blog.  I actually have taken a picture a day but to be honest, I have not been very inspired lately... all the snow and cold weather doesn't help. This one of Nyah is one of the better ones from recent days. When I post the ones I have taken to the  365 blog, you will see what I mean.  I've resorted to pictures of food and even our driving school car somedays.  UGH.  But great news... I managed to get into a photography class that starts March 8th!  The competition is fierce to get in and I happened to click to enroll at the perfect time. I think Someone knew I needed something to get my focus, no pun intended, back!  I'm very excited; I just hope the kids are willing models or I may have to recruit.

More this weekend... that is the plan anyway.

Know what you mean by the weather affecting our drive to do. Congratulations on your class but can you explain more about it? I'm so excited for you - you are so talented and I can't wait to see where you end up in the photography/art profession! Love the pictures!
