longboard fail

New board, new season, new hill. I should have realized that it was a recipe for disaster. Add onto the photos two weeks of a sore wrist and a still sore right hip bone/butt and heel/ankle ...plus ripped jeans, a bruised ego  and a few days of limping and you've got a pretty serious longboard fail. I will be more careful on that hill from now on.

I needed somewhere to display the photos I take with my new instant camera from Geordie and so I crocheted a vine and leaves and flowers and then hand-stitched material on top of the leaves and glued the leaves and flowers to clothespins! It now hangs in my living room. I think I will have to either make another one, or make the vine longer.. I already have more photos hanging from it than are on it in these photos. It's going to get full quickly I think.

Milk!

Today I bought this milk bottle and I am going to keep my milk in it from now on. I am SO excited! And it was only $6!

here lies the stardust

I miss my photography friend.

Dragon! and a Toadstool

Today I imagined up and made a toadstool pin cushion! I am in love with it.

And I made this dragon for Geordie's friend Luke.

I could never place the stars in the sky above you

Skating at the Arboretum at the University of Guelph.
There is a boardwalk that goes through a swampy/pond-ish area  and it has sticks and fallen trees frozen in it but the ice is quite smooth - albeit lightly dusted with snow - and we spent about an hour playing around on it. I love our adventures.

The battery in my camera was dead.....story of my life.. so I had to use my broken phone but this place was SO cool so I had to post a couple of these.

I could never pretend that I don't love you

My Geordie knows me well :)

This is what he got me for Christmas!

I haven't had too many chances to use it yet and I'm still experimenting but here are my very few results so far.

 We went ice skating on the frozen swampy parts of the Guelph Arboretum.

It works exceptionally well as far as I can tell in many different types of lighting and even when the subjects are moving. I love it!

That's exactly the way that I want it
