WHAT ???

Yahoo News --- 04/25/2009
An Associated Press-GfK poll taken in October 2008, just before Barack Obama won the election, found that just 17% of Americans thought the country was headed in the right direction. Today, as Obama's 100th day in office approaches, that number has jumped to 48%.

Just who did they poll?? I can get do a poll of 1000 people that can't smell and they will tell me that S*$# doesn't stink... and get figures like this... does this make it true???? I think not...

Sure if I were in the hand out line I would sing his praise also... but I WORK.. I PAY TAXES… things are not good... plants are closing over day… people that WANT to work are out of work and those that chose not to work just sit back and sing songs of joy... it's a great life... my checks keep coming in...

Things are not as good as he that thinks he can walk on water would have the foolish to believe… THINGS ARE BAD AND GETTING WORSE…

BLUE

Tonight is one of those nights where I just feel hurt. It's a hurt I can't explain. Tonight I was suppose to meet some friends at the waterfront and after I got there I had to leave. I just didn't like being around people... I never got to see them. I'll have to try to explain it Monday.

There's times I feel like I'm on top of the world and then when I try to enjoy the feeling it's like I've stepped off the world into some deep hole.

Tonight the house is so quiet..... as it is every night, but tonight it's like I can feel the silence yet as bad as it is I don't want to talk to anyone... I don't want to be alone, but yet I do want to be alone. I know this all sound so crazy.. yet it's how I'm feeling.

Most of the time all I want to do is stay home and shoot pictures of the birds.... and be alone...

I hate this feeling...

Up Early Again

Well, I'm up early again this morning. Don't let the post time fool ya... It was another 4am morning for me... hahaha

Today I'll be shooting pictures of peoples pets, dogs that is, for a benefit fund the hospital has. I've never done this kind of shoot before, but it can't be any worse than shooting a wedding or babies. hahaha I'm always ready to get behind the camera and dog show sounds like fun.. now tomorrow I may write something all together different like --- what the He@@ was I thinking when I signed on for this... hahahhaha

I just wish the weather looked better than it does this morning. I'm afraid it's going to be storming by lunch and that's when the show is to begin.

Anyway that's what I'll be doing this afternoon. With that in mind I wanted to use a picture today of Maggie. I lost little Maggie a year ago. Melissa got Maggie and then I kinda got her. She was always close by me when I was home and many years ago when I couldn't sleep she and I would go in the living room and she would be by my side while I sat and read all night. I could not have had a better friend.

Now I've got Lucy and Cody to keep me company. Lucy is like middle age and Cody is still pretty much a puppy... full of life. Cody just kills me the way he likes to worry Lucy. Lucy will roll her big black eyes around at me as to ask.. what should I do Dad? ... I tell her to jump on him... hahaha

I know a lot of people don't like dogs, but when I come home from a real bad day at work it's nice to have them meet me and to love and want to be loved on.

Well I'm going to start getting all my camera stuff together... i just hope the weather doesn't get bad this afternoon.

Maggie --- I'll always remember you little girl...
