Bella, chillin' out after a long day playing at Petsmart, waiting for the kids and Marci to get home.

I spent the morning replacing our dead garbage disposal. The job wasn't too hard except that the one I bought was missing a gasket. Off to Home Depot for a replacement. Headed home and finished the job, only the exit pipe from the disposal is just a hair too short to connect to the existing trap, so it's leaking.

Superb. And I have to go to work now, so I won't be able to work on it until tomorrow.

This is a pile of debris next to the old shed in my back yard. One day, the wooden supports you see under the shed will rot away (that back corner isn't even holding anything up!) and then, whammo, shed on the ground. About the only purpose this shed serves is to house shield the lawn mower from some of the elements (the sliding doors no longer slide) and to give us somewhere to store a week's worth of dog poo at a time (in a little foot-operated trash container).

I will be in the Sand Point area tomorrow, so I hope to have some better pictures. March has been a lousy picture month for me.

Another kid picture. I'll try harder tomorrow but today was rainy and a run-errands-with-Mom kind of day. I decided to put the flash on the camera and shoot the kids and their Valentine's Day stuff. As it turns out, the other picture I was going to post was also of Riley, but with a Valentine card in his hand. I just liked how this picture turned out, with him almost popping out of the screen. I didn't directly flash him, but bounced it off a white bookshelf to my right.

Both Hay and Rye have been doing these weird dances to our keyboard's pre-programmed songs. They have been hamming it up for me and I've been trying to get some practice shooting pictures. I should be able to get some non-in-home shots tomorrow.

Once again, no photos from outside the house because I was at home all day. Big surprise! This is a picture of a cap to some scent thing Marci bought. I guess it's French and goes on top of some sort of candle that's supposed to make your air cleaner. I thought the cap was cool and then I popped it on the stove top for a few quick snaps.
