Sick Woman’s Lazy Blog
I’m just not feeling well. Instead of having a fever and a bona-fide flu, I’m just zapped of all energy with a bit of a head cold. I slept for about 12 hours last night which I am sure helped a lot. But, true to my act-dorky-in-illness persona, I made two pumpkin rolls today. I’ve never made them before, although my grandma makes killer ones, and I have her recipe. We are going to visit friends tonight, so I wanted something to take along. Plus, after lying in bed for an hour during lunchtime talking with my dear friend Valerie (who I discovered also reads this blog and should be noted!), I felt much peppier.
Just to fill up some more space here in the blog, I’ll tell you about my love of photography. Thanks for all your kind comments, by the way. I have a Kodak Easy Share 4 mega-pixel digital camera with 10x optical zoom. I dearly love it. (Note to Linda U. who might be reading–don’t get interchangeable lenses! Get 10x zoom!)
Here are a few of my favorite pictures which I’ve taken. I really like photographing flowers, and I’m not so good with portraits. I’ll have to work on that.
Picture from an ice storm last year.
Rhododendron in my garden in May.
Flowers from the Alamo in San Antonio, TX.
And, here’s Libby’s best picture, taken this past summer. (She was 10 yrs. at the time.)

Our son Ben is an avid photographer. We have designed photography courses just for him during the high school years. He is currently shopping for some very expensive equipment which he plans to pay for himself. His favorite is landscape photography. He has recently discovered the work of William Neil. You can Google him and see some of his work.

Sorry you’re under the weather! Sleep, sleep, and more sleep is a wonderful cure isn’t it? Your pictures are lovely! Keep ‘em coming!
Thank you for the introduction to Miss Sara. Beautiful, beautiful words.
I have to say of this group, I like Libby’s the best. It would be so cute framed in a little girls nursery. No that is not a hint, as much as I wish it to be. Hope you feel better!
Sorry to hear that you are feeling sick, hope you feel better soon. I love the photographs, especially the bee on the daisy. Thanks so much for sharing! I love photography also, I have a Konica Minolta Dimage Z2. I think portraits are my favorite, but I also love to shoot nature and still life.

Excellent pictures. Do you know what the blue flower are called? Stunning! I hope you feel better soon. We had something like that over Christmas break and it lasted so long I was beginning to wonder if it was sudden old age.
