In Which I Look Quite Silly...

but have some fun at the same time. :)
Mini bull-riding! :D

The most successful attempt yet:
 
An other-than-successful attempt (trying to ride Mini Moo backwards can be tricky):

Mist In the Morning

Happily, although I'd missed it recently, there was mist at my house this morning! I forgot to take iPhone HDRs, but I still think I got some decent shots.More (better) photos from this morning to follow soon...

Pieces of Autumn

Once again, I'm out of a job and looking for a new one...
Check out 1saleaday.com for lots of good deals - I've gotten quite a few presents for my family from there. :)

Forgiven

Can you see past the things that I have done
And the blood on my hands?


This was inspired in part by Relient K's song, Forgiven.

Give me the strength to face the wrong that I have done
Now that I know the darkest side of me...

Forgive me for what I have been
Forgive me my sins
(taken from The Truth Beneath the Rose, by Within Temptation)

Forgiven

Nature and Harmony

I took some nature photos on a morning recently...here are a couple. Aren't you glad God placed such beauty in this world?

The dewdrops sparkled like diamonds in the morning sun
But our eyes were looking ahead and we trod them underfoot, not realizing what treasures lay beneath our feet... 

Diamonds Underfoot

Bliss

                      Droplets At Dawn I often like harmony in music...some of my favorite artists, such as BarlowGirl, do harmony very well. Recently while searching for songs by Michelle Tumes on YouTube, I discovered someone who is great at singing harmony; here's the video I first saw/heard her in (it's one of my favorites of hers - perhaps you'll think it's very pretty as well): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=anvfr6JgVoM&feature=plcp
Sleepthief is another who features some great harmonies (mainly by layering a single female vocalist's voice many times); here's one Sleepthief song (a duet) in which you can hear some amazing vocals that sounds great together: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AYDtUYtGc5I&list=UULM3uDRM-SGaiBe5hLUno9w&index=8&feature=plcp
