What a day,...!
Husband went in for the knew knee this morning. We got up at the crack of morn to have him there by 6:45, for a couple of hours of prep, then they got him good and stoned... sadly, I couldn't think of any good questions to ask him in that... uh... mellowed out state. A couple of hours later, I was informed he was out of surgery and would be moved to his room in an hour or so.

Suddenly last Sunday...
...I realized this is the week that entries for the Thurston County Fair photography show are due this week. Nothing was ready! I like it this way: no time to delay, to procratsinate, just time to get up the files, make prints, run to the frame shop, make choices, fill out forms... put things together, make more choices, run back to the frame shop with the six entries.

Hooray! The visa came through!
Daughter Marika is now legally resident and able to open her business in New Zealand! It isn't easy, NZ is particular to whom they grant resident and business priviledges.

Lookee here!
I have entered a few shots in this contest... just today, so they are not up for review as of this moment, but may be any time. There are some pictures up for review however, if you would like to participate. Don't know if you have to be a Facebook subscriber or not... I'm sure they will let you know, if you do. Anyway, I know some of you are already... Okay, the link doesn't link... you might have to go to Facebook and look there for the Bling Photo Contest, if you feel sufficiently motivated.
