Pizza for supper courtesy of my lovely sister, since none of us wanted to cook, and so, we have Papa Murphy's Veggie Delite.

One of the family's cats, Princess Leia.  She was nice enough to pose for me while I experimented with zoom and flash.  This one was sans flash, since the anti-red eye settings on it made her blink and look evil.

Waiting for spring.  Today was the first significant snowfall here (amazingly it waited until January), and the porch and everything in it received a nice coating of snow.

Can't sleep...

so we have a new title for blog.  Apparently either insomnia causes brain overload, or visa-versa, because I've been lying in bed for the last hour trying to sleep and failing due to my brain refusing to shut down.  Perhaps putting one idea to use will fix that....

This is a little garden gnome that has taken up residence in one of our plant stands in the living room until the day comes that my sister actually moves out and has a garden to put him in.  He looks a little more yellow since the light is coming from a table lamp about a yard to the left of him.  I actually had to get the tripod out to shoot this one because of the lack of light even with the lamp on.  There is no holding the camera with a one second shutter speed.
