I got a new toy. A Flip Camcorder. greyrider  said that she was not pleased with the quality of hers. So far, I find that it is OK for my needs. Will see once how I feel about it once I start recording Meghan.

Here's my test shot, showing Cocoa, Carrie, and Basil.

I am sick as a dog with upper respiratory infection. Yuck. This morning, when I went to my e-mail, I saw this cute message from a friend, and I must share it.

( Enjoy )

I spent my day working in the house, getting rid of clutter, taking mom food shopping, and, in the late afternoon taking pictures.

Yesterday, hubby and I celebrated our 36th wedding anniversary. It's amazing to think that aside from my mom and my two best friends (whom I talked about in my August 21 entry, "My friend is in surgery"), I don't know anybody for that long. 

Today, however,  is a sad day for me. Last year, on August 30th, my 16-year-old Heinz57, Cinnamon Amber, was euthanized. She lived with us 14 years. In fact, she entered our lives on August 29th, 1991, on our 21st anniversary.  My dog Basil has his own blog, and he once wrote about Cinnamon. If you are interested in reading her story (and are interested to find out why part of my user name is spicedogs), just follow this link:

I miss that beautiful dog. My heart is so sad today.
