Posting on a Thursday - how unusual

Thursday is usually my day off - I don't usually join in on any memes on Thursday and when I post without a meme, I usually don't get any comments, which depresses me : )  I did, however, have a few things I wanted to say today.  


No. 1 - I had my first weigh in at Weight Watchers last night and lost 4.4 pounds - had I removed my Crocs, it may have been 4.5 but, hey, they're part of me.


No. 2 - Hootin' Anni is in the third week of her new meme and it's really a great one - makes you think!  Unfortunately, I am still at a loss for an idea after these three weeks.  Perhaps I've lost the ability to think?  Perhaps my taste is toward music with lyrics that wouldn't be acceptable?  Whatever.  Why don't you hop on over there and see what you can come up with - it's really a good one!


No. 3 - Am still very very happy with Chrome vs. Internet Explorer.  I have only found two things that don't make me happy, as compared to the many many things on IE.  First, some sites won't show their full content in Chrome.  Second, if you like to highlight portions of articles or whatever and print just the highlighted section, you can't in Chrome.  Or I should say I can't - maybe I'm doing something wrong.  I truly believe that they will fix these problems, or maybe they're not even problems - after all Chrome is streamlined to go very fast and maybe these are extras that fall by the wayside.  Anyway, I'm still happy with it!  My frustration level has gone way down.


And now, just so you won't miss seeing some pictures, here are a few of some of the guitars that Victor makes by hand, from blocks of wood.


This one has the head covered in a thin sheet of some blue shell - forget the name:
This one has an armadillo he hand carved - his company is called Blind Armadillo:
And this one I just particularly like the wood - and you should feel it - smoother than satin.  I know, the cliche is smoother than silk, but I happen to feel satin is smoother than silk:
That's all folks.  Have a happy day.  Peace.  B : )

Mellow Yellow Monday - a trip to the doc's office

Had a routine meds-check visit to the doc's Friday and I stopped on my way out to snap a few pics of this gorgeous tree

Here it is closer up - this shot would make a wonderful jigsaw puzzle - I'm thinking about making that a new meme (would-be puzzle shots, not yellow trees) - what do you think?

Have a wonderful Mellow Yellow Monday and if you'd care to see more, or enter your own shot, just click on the alphabet button to the right.

Many thanks to Hootin' Anni for pointing out that my background left me.  She is SUCH an amazing woman.  I'm trying out new ones now (background, not amazing women).  I have ALWAYS loved red and yellow together, which you probably know.  Peace.  B : )
