So, I always tell myself that I need to ensure there is variety in my 365 project. Not just flowers and cats. Then, I remember, that this is my project, and my pets are a big part of my life (and I love photographing flowers). There are still many days left in this year, and I am sure there will be lots of things in my project that are not cats or flowers. But sometimes, it is going to be cats and flowers, and I am okay with that. Our girl kitty is harder for me to get a photograph of, as she is not always what I call cooperative. Little Dude, on the other hand, seems to play it up for the camera. I start trying to take pictures and he flops about and poses (not all the time, but a lot of time). I couldn’t resist take some photos of him sleeping in the sun again. He started flopping all around, and this is what I ended up with.

Happy Valentine’s Day! (Yes, I know it was earlier this week, but I am playing catch-up). Thought I should take a picture of some kind of heart today, to be on theme with the holiday. I decided to use the pretty little candle holder my grandmother brought me back from Sweden. Hope everyone had a wonderful Valentine’s day.

Today we worked on some things at the house we are in the process of purchasing. There were a few minor things that need to be done before closing (per the FHA appraiser). We got most of the list done thanks to the help of our old roommate (especially since I am in more of a moral support type of role given that I am still recovering from the surgery and still have lifting and other restrictions). We just have a few things to finish up. Took a picture of the flowers again, because they are still pretty. This time I focused on the carnations.

My flowers (with the exception of some of the lilies which have already wilted) are still looking pretty. Playing with some close ups of the lily petals.

I take many pictures of my little gray dude. Sometimes he looks relaxed, sometimes he looks wild, sometimes he looks handsome (I have had people say), sometimes though, he just looks like the little dork I know he is inside. I find it very amusing that he often (and I mean often) sits in chairs or on couches as if he is human. It makes him look funny. We got a new chair and he loves it. If you are sitting in it and get up, he will quickly swoop in and take your seat. And often times you return to find him sitting like this. My little dude.
