Yup, I played some guitar this morning. Bellana went home and we are sad to see her leave so I played guitar to feel better. It didn’t really help, but it was still good to play. Hell, it’s always good to play.

The kids are here so it game time.
Photo a Day 7/365
I told the cats that I was lucky because I have two hands that allow me to pet them both at the same time.
It Fit Me
This is a photo of my father’s wedding ring. I guess he wanted me to have it.
I tried it on. It fits me.
It’s Over
The funeral is over but we are not home yet.
Robin is probably waiting patiently… or sleeping.
Out and About
Got a haircut. It was inexpensive and I got what I paid for. As usual.
I declared that today will be a sugar free bakery cookie day. Probably just before bed.
Also, for schnitzengiggles, the downtown clock. Why not?
And a bonus clock because I was stopped at the light.
Busy Day Ahead
My father’s wake is tonight. His funeral is tomorrow. It’s going to be a tough couple of days, but we’ll get through it. My step daughter is home. My step son expects to be home later tonight. My wife has been my rock. I love my family. If I hadn’t made it clear 10000 times before, I love my family and I am honored that they have accepted me into their lives the way they have. I couldn’t be happier.
I don’t know what I want to do with my time before the wake starts this afternoon. I think I am going to see about getting a hair cut. I have to iron a couple of shirts even though we don’t have an ironing board anymore. I already played some guitar this morning. I recorded leads for three songs and now I don’t have any songs that are ready for guitars. Gotta get on that and add some new ideas.
I’m sure I’ll add some nervous posts between now and the end of the wake. For now though, enjoy today’s photo a day pic. 5/365 (and also a bonus pic). Guitar, of course.
More Playing Time
I was able to sneak in my full day’s worth of exercise after work tonight. It was borderline miraculous and my legs are killing me.
I also snuck in more guitar. I put rhythm tracks onto one song and leads onto two.
Bonus. Now I am going to hang out and wait for my step daughter to come home. She’s on her way.
Bonus indeed!
Oh yeah, and I also uploaded those photos I forgot to upload this morning before I left for work. That second one is 4/365 for the photo a day thing. Let’s just call it a complete day and pat ourselves on the back a little.
Photo Fail
The web based Flickr photo uploader works in two steps. First you chose the files you want to upload. It preps them. You can tell the uploader which albums to add your new photos to, and what tags to give them, and what permissions, and what groups, and what people, and all sorts of fun stuff like that. When everything is ready you click upload and BOOM, the photos are uploaded to your account.
During this morning’s surprise guitar playing I took a picture for the photo a day thing using my mirrorless camera. I added them to the uploader, added some tags, picked an album to add them to, marked the permissions as being viewable by the public…
…and then promptly forgot to click the upload button. Oops.
On the off chance that something keeps me from getting home at a decent hour tonight (nothing will, I’m just doing what the boy scout motto said and being prepared) I took a picture in the kitchenette at work just to make sure my photo-a-day-butt is covered.
Enjoy… or something.
Sit Up Straight
Lily thinks I should stop slouching and sit up straight.
