Bad Cold


While there is still summer outside, I’ve been sitting inside coming down with a cold. It basically started Thursday when I was shopping with my mother and I complained that I feel like I would have circulation problems. My mother said it would be no wonder since the weather was humid.

My 50mm lens was attached and I like this lens for this type of photography, so that I shot the photo… Continue reading Playing Dart

Hats for Cats

Currently I don’t have a laundry bin, but even if I would have one, it would just animate me to collect dirty laundry. That’s at least what I experienced when I owned one of those larger laundry baskets that you can close with a basket cap. Yes, maybe a small one would be better but currently I prefer the chaos variant and collect a bit of laundry at the corner on my bed … Continue reading Hats for Cats
