Another Non Weather Event

Ahead of what was to be a snow and ice storm, all of the errands and shopping were done on Friday so the day could be spent at home.  As I should have predicted, the event which the weathermen had touted beforehand as 'possibly significant' did not occur.

With temperatures hovering around freezing and slick roads we didn't want to venture out and have just spent a very quiet day at home.  Todd has eaten and played in what little bit of snow we did get.

Each day we learn something new about Lucas.  Look closely at the below picture, and the awkwardness of what is his favorite sleeping position.   

We've also learned that he must have had a career harassing cats.  His continued interest in our cat CC goes well past curiosity and is more like stalking.  Even though I don't think he would (or could) hurt her, we keep an eye on him, and she does too. 

A belated Christmas gift arrived from Carl on Friday, which was a new camera!  While I really love the one I have been using, I have to admit that the new one, which is my first 'DSLR' is going to be fun to learn to use. However, the lens it came with doesn't have the 'zoom' that my old one has.  So until I can save up enough pennies or sell a kidney (or both) to buy one, I'll be using them both  

The pictures above were taken with my 'old camera.' The ones below are straight out of the new camera with no editing.  So far I like the crisper close up pictures when the lighting isn't that good.  I think the pictures and my biscuits turned out pretty good--I'll just add that I make them just like my Mom used too!   

The new camera is going to take some getting used too. But I have plenty of time, and plenty of things to take pictures of.

I hope you're having a good weekend!!
