Our mailbox is listing a bit with all the snow plowing, but it is in better shape than the ones which belong to our closest neighbor.

Office and Craft Room – a photoset on Flickr

As part of my participation in Laboratory 555: Chronicles of a Year-Long Online Art Retreat, I took photos of the room that I use as my office and craft room. This morning I posted them as a photoset on Flickr: Office and Craft Room.

Stock Show

I saw this magnificent Texas Longhorn steer at the National Western Stock Show in Denver yesterday. Few of my photos turned out, due to my reluctance to use flash photography without warning, so go see Connections and look at her photographs in her blog posts Reminiscing!, Cattle Judging, and Hats, Hardware and Humor. She used to exhibit livestock herself, and writes about her memories.

I had been avoiding Stock Show and similar events for several years, since I didn’t know how strenuous I would find it considering my heel problems. However, although I was exhausted when I got home last night, I rated my pain as a two this morning. Since most mornings these days I rate the pain as two to four (on a scale of one to ten) I was quite pleased.
