Daily Prompt: Unexpected Guests

Dennis

Today the Daily Prompt asks: “You walk into your home to find a couple you don’t know sitting in your living room, eating a slice of cake. Tell us what happens next?”. Instead of answering the question, I can really tell a story about unexpected guests. It´s a long time ago and I am talking about a time when me and my friends were round about 20 years old. Another friend did invite us but we arrived too early and he was still not at home. I am not sure why we did that but a friend said “Look! The … Continue reading Daily Prompt: Unexpected Guests

The Problem With The Twenty Ten Theme…

Dennis

I realized already some time ago that the Twenty Ten Theme comes with a major problem if you upload a lot of photos or if you use a lot of photos on your blog. It´s about tag and category pages. Let´s take for example the tag Shyna on my blog. If you click this link to the tag page of my cat, you will indeed find all my posts that are related to my cat. But the problem is that you will only see text excerpts which is totally ok, but some themes would show text excerpts and the first … Continue reading The Problem With The Twenty Ten Theme…

Ant Power And Teamwork

Dennis

I shot the photo above some weeks ago when I was in Salem to have a barbecue. I found many ants there and really liked it, when I saw an ant that carried another one. The autofocus of my point and shoot camera does not always work very well. In this case, the ants did always run out of the focus, which resulted in a very blurry photo. I did add an amount of sharpening with Adobe Lightroom to fix this a little bit at least. What I love about ants is that they are team players and they have … Continue reading Ant Power And Teamwork

Physiotherapy Helped A Lot…

Dennis

I mentioned some time ago that I had problems with my jaw after a dental treatment. The problem was called “Trismus” and I also mentioned that I had to visit the physiotherapist. At first I was very sceptical. I had two appointments each weeks and it is funny how time flies. I think I have now twenty appointments behind me and won´t need more. It really helped a lot so that my jaw is ok now. My mouth opening is maybe still not the same as in the past but I can eat now and the jaw is functionally recovered … Continue reading Physiotherapy Helped A Lot…

Less Blogging, More Other Activities… But Not For Ever

Dennis

My blogging interval did slow down pretty much this month. It has to do with some other activities but that does not mean that I stop blogging or so. Today it´s a little bit sunny but we had some very rainy and cold weeks and most of the time I was at home. Sure, this would have been the perfect time for blogging but… One evening I had the desire to watch a TV series. I am not really a person who does watch TV or DvD often apart from reports about history or sciences. But over the years there … Continue reading Less Blogging, More Other Activities… But Not For Ever

Two More Cat And Towel Snapshots

Dennis

As I mentioned already, I also sometimes try to annoy my cat. I wanted to have some funny photos of her with a towel over her head but the photos aren´t that great, so that I would rather call them snapshot. But still funny, this is why I upload them anyway. I showed one of the photos from this set already earlier. Continue reading Two More Cat And Towel Snapshots
