take my scissors, please

I got to go home early on Friday, so I took Gandalf outside again. This was the result:





Gandalf's head and some ivy.




Gandalf's head and some pink azaleas.




His tail with some lavender azaleas...




...and again with some red azaleas.

I'm done posting pictures today. I promise.

I love my new icon. As usual, the ever-generous Jessica iconed the picture for me.

I have a very busy week coming up...a million lunches, dinner tomorrow night with Yolanda (my Streets girl), band practice, Maundy Thursday service, more band practice, other Easter activities. In my "spare time," I need to be working on Debra's scrapbook. I'm not very happy with it so far. I'm doing it chronologically, but I feel like the book has no flow. Each page is a different color instead of flowing all together, and I'm running out of creative ideas for borders. I can't crop the pictures, either, because I don't have very many pictures to begin with and I don't want to end up with a five-page book. I feel that it looks very unprofessional and I'm sure my mother won't like it. Kathy has to keep reminding me that it's Debra's book and she's going to love it. I am stressed anyway.

A nap would be nice right now.

Does Gandalf really walk on a leash? My cats would freak out!

[chestnutcurls.livejournal.com]

LOL! Those are great! :)

Yeah, he'll walk on the leash, but it's a wrestling match trying to put it on him. By now, he's surely made the connection that leash=outside, so you'd think he would be more cooperative. But he hates it. I wish I could let him walk free, but it makes me too nervous.

I don't get tired of the pictures! :) More Ovaltine, please.

Don't get discouraged about the book. You're looking at it from a design and flowy perspective, but Deb is going to just enjoy looking at what pictures you chose and that you even made her the book. I get caught up in details about things I design, but I have to remember that others just want the information and won't notice that as much. So...that is my analogy for you.

Also, do you like how I refer to your sister, who I have never met, as "Deb"?

[chestnutcurls.livejournal.com]

Thanks for the encouragement. :)

Yeah, I think, when I meet Dawn, I'll call her "D" or something. :) lol. No one calls my sister Deb. It's Debs, since we're all about the unnecessary plurals in my family. :) Don't ever call her Debbie, though. She might kill you.

And what loverly shots of Gandalf's tail they are!

[chestnutcurls.livejournal.com]

LOL!

Hey, you seriously should come over sometime. We could watch the Buffy musical (which is the only episode I'm really familiar with). :) This week is awful for me, but maybe next week.

if you already sent this once, sorry:P

[purple-reign.livejournal.com]

the musical is great...and suprisingly good (as far as t.v. show musicals go)

I think the first pic of Gandalf is pretty good:) very good use of the "rule of thirds" (if you were going for that). Photographing animals (especially finicky ones) is tough...you did pretty good considering your subject:D

Your cat is "going through the motions...."

NOW! "Once more, with feeling..."

:P

I'm tired

[chestnutcurls.livejournal.com]

He needs "something to meow about..." :)

I dreamt about Gandalf last night! Weird, huh? He was so much fun, but I couldn't figure out how he got to Washington without you! :)

[chestnutcurls.livejournal.com]

LOL! He probably booked a plane ticket himself. :)
