December 6, New Day

New post, New camera...

The picture is not of the new camera because I took the picture with the new camera.  And, if you look closely, you can see the little camera I had before I bought the big gun last year right at the right edge of the computer.  This makes 3 Canon cameras I have bought since I fell down and broke the SX20 about 3 years ago.  This one is an SX50.

This is an image of the SX50 I found on the web.

The reason I wanted this was because of the 50X Zoom.  The camera I have is a much better and more powerful camera than this new one, but it would cost thousands as in more than 2 with three zeros to buy a zoom lens for my Canon 60D that would do half as much as this new one.

I got it at wally world in BRV with a comp ad from Target.  I think it was a pretty good deal, $80 off full price.  After Xmas it will be back to full price until next Xmas because it just came out this fall.  I wanted to get it a Wmart, because if I don't like it I can take it back and get my money back.  Lots of places will let you return something for certain reasons, but wmart will let you return things because you decided you don't want them after all even though there is nothing wrong with the item.

Well, got to go to bed now.  Have to work tomorrow to pay for all these big guns.

Hey Winnie

Don't you know, no news is good news.

Tuesday, December 4

Yesterday afternoon, we had visitors.  We served them fresh rose bush and they went away happy.

Friday, November 30, Curly Day

Friday is always go home early day, so today after I got off at noon, I went to the beautifier shop and got my hair curled.  It looks and feels much better.

Tomorrow is the first day of December, and it is supposed to be almost 70 degrees.  Not bad for December in the Ozarks.

I went up the road and visited with Old Man Powell this afternoon.  While we were sitting in his living room talking, he looked out the door and said, there are the deer out there.  I had my camera, so I went out and took a few pictures of his deer.  I did not realize it, but I guess the deer up by his house are a different breed than we see down here.

Here are a couple of pictures of his wildlife.

Tuesday, November 27

Mama and twins were out grazing before 5 tonight when there was still good light for a picture.  Sunday is the last day of modern gun season.  I hope all three make it through,  This is the second year  Mama has raised twins in the corner behind that big tree in the background.  

Today was the coolest yet, getting down in the mid to low 20's this morning, but it was still a bright, sunshiny day.  By Sunday we are supposed to be up close to 70 degrees again.  A great way to start December.

Monday, November 26, going back to work

Is for the birds...

Actually, it was not too bad.  Took a whole week off and was caught up on my work before noon.

Helen, we got the package.  Hannah and Robert will love it all, but Hannah surely will love the fancy dresses.

Patsy is OK.  I talked to her yesterday.  I asked why she was not posting and she said she did not have anything to post about.

And, I did not forget Erin's birthday, at least not completely.  I was going to post happy birthday Saturday and went looking for a pic of Erin from years ago on my computer.  Well, I do not have the old pictures on this computer, and as I was looking for the right picture, I found something that made me think about looking for someone on the 1940 census.  That led to several hours of looking for dead people stuff, and then trying to find one of my trees online that I do not have on this computer.   Forgot all about birthdays, because I was wound up in dead days.

Then, I went to the library site and downloaded a book about Lawrence of Arabia.  I read on it several hours Saturday and yesterday.  It is interesting. 

Anyway, I hope you had a good birthday, Erin.
