What I’m reading July 2018

Look, I finally picked another fairly newly published book.

Best product for curly hair ever!

Now that is quite the statement I know, but I’ve tried lots and lots of products and tools.

Every once in a while you come across a product that you love enough to tell others about it and if you have curly hair… this is a game changer! I really hate being on the other side of the camera but I am so shocked that my thin, fine, frizzy hair could do this I’ll share anyway since Tyler is blocking part of my chins 🙂

Perspective & what I learned on underlook

Perspective was the theme for the Camera Club in July.

I had lots and lots of ideas for this theme.  I’m sure not all of them were what they had in mind for the theme- but I’ve never really like to play by all the rules. I had one in mind with a swing, one using rose-colored glasses, one that involved pavement, a puddle and another person with cute rainboots on, but I ran out of time. When I think of perspective in photography I tend to think of forced perspective (like the sun in a cup below) or railroad tracks or tall buildings that the lines would merge if you continued them off the photo. So I started thinking outside the box. From a cats perspective. Glass half full or half empty the optimists and pessimists perspective or one door closed, one door open. A scale laid upside down on my feet in the air (so it said 0 bls) but I never painted my toenails. Someone dressed for hot and someone dressed for cold, in the same setting. The lens ball super wide fish eye perspective. From inside a food grater I already had. My main idea was doing more underlook under-cat pics and I really could hardly wait to share those. I just LOVE some of these.

With June, in July, at Melrose & Pearson falls

Pretty sure all my friends know I’m directionally challenged and if June didn’t know that – she does now.

So hubby said we could go interstate or highway 176 to find Melrose Falls. We chose 176. BUT even though I did hear him say Melrose falls was past Pearson falls we took 176 then I still gave the wrong directions to turn left on Ozone dr. Thankfully after driving around for a bit, a Polk County Sherrif was pulling out of a road and we flagged him down. Turns out I was following Adams book from the interstate and we should’ve just passed Ozone Dr. The officer said the small 2 car pull off was between twin bridges. Got it, I can navigate by landmarks. The plan was to see Melrose falls before Pearson falls gate opened.

My guys. Heart and Hydration.

In this two-part post, I’ll talk about my boy first. Here’s what is new with Tyler.

I got a call from Reach animal hospital

Shoulder is a smidgeon better at 4 months post-op

Definitely not what I hoped for. If you read what I said a month ago very little has changed, so no need for me to make a new photo of what still hurts where, until there is improvementent  😦 

Pets and peas

I wonder if this is true for cats also?

 

We lost Trinity unexpectedly and her brother Tyler has a level 2 heart murmur that (finally) gets an echocardiogram in the next few weeks. Both have been fed wet grain free and dry food but their dry is “Chicken and Peas Entree Grain Free”.

Why we celebrate.

We have neighbors that started their (illegal) fireworks in June. It’s gonna be a long week. I don’t think we’ll go see the fireworks this year. With week-long booms
