A Lazy Day...


It was a Saturday, part of the once-every-sixth-week rotation where we have a Friday, Saturday and Sunday off to make a three day weekend. Unfortunately, Valerie had to work this Saturday, leaving the cats and myself to wander aimlessly around the house. As you can see by the photo, Kittle wasn't much into wandering and spent most of the day passed out near the back door, where she could experience the fresh air without actually having to get up the energy to go outside to enjoy it.
This photo was taken with a digital camera we picked up just yesterday evening to replace one that suddenly decided it didn't want to work anymore. It's a Nikon CoolPix P-60, which means that it's an 8.1 megapixel, 5X zoom point-and-shoot camera with a thin enough profile to fit in the back pocket of a bicycling jersey with no problem. It replaces a 4 megapixel Pentax Optio that had a 3X zoom, and probably cost less than the Pentax did when we bought it.
I spent some time playing with the camera today, and took a LONG nap to make up for a restless night, mowed the lawn, knit a little bit but actually managed NOT to give into the temptation to jump into the car and drive off somewhere.
The cats and I all say, "mission accomplished!"
