green windy day

it might be my new sunglasses, but today is the greenest day
i have seen in a long time! i love the color green. it's also
very windy. i just finished reading "The Shipping News" which
had some crazy tales of wind. made me want to visit
Newfoundland.

im attempting to post photos to my blog a new way. hopefully
it will work. i havent posted anything in a long time. mostly
because i havent been happy with any photos i have been taking.
i go through spells like that. it usually means i should put down
the digital camera and go back to the 35mm for a while. maybe i
will.

in other news, i tried embroidery for the 1st time last night and
so far am loving it. im working on painting the dog for the
humane society fundraiser and it's taking a very long time-but
looking pretty darn good. i am hoping to make my first dress
this week - a cute little summer halter dress. and i am now
leaving to go to my dad's to pick up my FIRST cell phone!
