Trying something different

Hi gang!
I hope everyone is having a good weekend. Despite a rocky week, yet again, with Youngest, we had a great couple days of celebrating Husband's birthday. His mom came and stayed for a couple days and we all really enjoyed the visit. Nice to spend time with Nanny and for the kids to see her more, too.

I want a new camera. I have two that are fine but I really want one that has a kick butt zoom but Husband doesn't think this expense is necessary. And he's right, it's not. HOWEVER, I am going to post a picture every day to see if I really enjoy photography as much as I think I do. After a few weeks, if I am really into it, I will spend the cash on a new camera and forget about asking for anything else the rest of the year. Boo. That sucks.

Speaking of sucking, Middle child lost their last basketball game today by ONE point. This was their season: wins and losses defined by 1. They all cried at the end of this one and I was almost in tears, too. They weren't so sad about their loss but that the season is over and they won't see each other any more. I really liked the kids and parents of his team and will be sad to not see them every Sat, too. It was a really exciting season and was glad to see them end it with a 9 wins 3 losses record. Such good kids, I wish them the best.

Ok, so back to my camera. I will post a pic every day. Most of the time I will tell you what it is, some of the time I will ask you what the heck I do with it, and some I will just make you guess what it is. My mom sent Husband a box for his bday so there are all kinds of things I don't know what to do with in there!

Here's today's pic
One is yellow the other is orange. What do I do with these?They are made out of silicone.

I hope my Weight Warriors are doing well. I am at 147.5 and was happy not to gain while Mom in law was here. I made Husband a Triple Fudge cake with melted peanut butter in the middle and on top (oh and peanut butter chips in the batter). I am not a cake person but it was darn good. Good enough that Middle child wants  it for his bday next month. I watched a lot less Food tv while she was here and I think it kept the weight off. Need to get back to reading and working out.

Have a great rest of your weekend. Will post pics every day in an effort to "earn" my new camera!!

Rock on,
Cat
