The Second Week

I am still at it - into the second week of Project 365.

January 27


Lucy is about 7 months old and such a fun kitten. She is an indoor cat, so can only enjoy the outdoors through the window. It is so fun to watch her watching the birds, making that cat 'clicking' noise she makes.

It took me a lot longer than I liked to figure out how to turn off the flash. I didn't feel like looking for the instruction manual. We have had this camera for so long, it is probably lost. Turns out it is a button on the top of the camera. I was looking for something in the on-screen menu.

This is a wedding present, so we have had it for over 27 years. It is made out of Peking Glass and I think it is so pretty. It is something I see every day, but don't pay a lot of attention to it. Looking at is closely, I can see the dainty details of the leaves and flower petals. The wall behind it is yellow, but doesn't look like it in this photo.

Party Lite craziness. In January of the last few years, I have had a candle party. There are a lot of ladies in our 'candle circle' and it seems like I am always going to a candle party. I had over $800 in sales which resulted in me getting a boatload of free stuff. This mass of boxes is all the product delivered to my house this week. Most of it will be taken to my party guests.

Palm trees, one of the ubiquitous symbols of Southern California. These are outside the new Target in the Irvine Spectrum. They are especially pretty on cloudy days like today.

I love online shopping. I ordered a pair of Keds red canvas shoes at 4pm on Wednesday and they were at my house on Thursday - less than 24 hours from the time I ordered. And, if I can believe the shipping label, they came from the other side of the country. I thought I read on their website that an order had to be placed before 1pm Pacific Time to be shipped the same day, so I was very surprised to see them.

There is agriculture in suburbia. This strawberry field is across the street from our neighborhood. I was waiting for traffic to clear so I could make a left turn when I took this picture from the car.
