Novice Photographer.

So the other day I was screwing around with my Cannon Rebel 35MM SLR camera and I took some photos. I liked how they came out. Each time I use this camera the photos get better and better I think. 


Since it's 35MM and the cost of processing is hella expensive anymore bc Digital is taking over I don't use it a whole lot and I've had the camera for a good 10 years now. But here are some of the photos I took of my Daughter that I liked how they came out.

Showing off her Tummy

Loves her Tummy

Rocking her Star Wars Tee

I love Digital because of the Now factor. But I LOVE the look that film gives.  I need to start playing around with this camera more. The look of it just blows me away.

Falling Apart.

I really hate not having any health insurance or dental. I need a tooth pulled bad bc the whole top half of the crown cracked off. It doesn't hurt but I need it taken care of before it causes a real problem :( I also really need to have my back checked out again. I'ts been almost 3 years since my Accident and since they Diagnosed me with Arthritis. I have my good days and I have my bad days where its hard to even do anything. I tried applying for Medical Assistance again we'll see how things go from there. I'm only 27 and I feel like I'm in my 50's I hate this :( I shouldn't be going through all this crap yet.


On another note, I go back to work today after being off for the past 8 days, I had Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday off as my normal days off from work last week. Went in on Friday and told I could go home bc the lab was down since Tuesday and there was nothing for me to do since the Truck and stuff was already done since they came when I was off. I was happy I got to go home, but bummed they didn't call me sooner so I didn't waste the gas since it's not a close drive for me to get there. Then I had the weekend off since I requested it since I always work the weekend, I like to request one off every now and then to get a break. Then work called me on Monday and said the lab was still down and still nothing for me to do so I could chose to not come in if I didn't want to which was nice but I hate losing the pay but I also hate being bored out of my mind when if I can get more stuff done at home I rather do that. DF and I wen't out that night to see Xmen First class which was nice since we hadn't been out of the house since we went to see Thor. Then I was off yesterday since Tuesday's are my Unavailable days at work.


But now I have work the next 6 days, Hopefully I don't get a phone call today saying the lab is still down. Bc then that means its been down for 8 days also which is killing our sales too, but killing my paycheck. Oh well time to go make breakfast for the little one and I.

Update Info.

I have just noticed that if you are using FireFox browser the updates I did you may not see. If you use Google Chrome, or Internet Explorer you should be able to see the updates I have made to my Blog. IE will ask you if the font used would you like to install it if you do not have it. Just click ok bc it is a Blogger Default Font.


Thanks :D

Updates.

I did some updates today to my Blog since I found out there was more you could edit with the templets. Allot of my older posts have the new fancy font which looks nice but a friend of mind said it was hard to read. I will eventually go through all my older posts and override my posts with a different font but until then you will just have to deal with the fancy font.


I hope you all like my new changes and you will also now see I have my own video blog page set up where I will keep all my videos together for your Viewing Pleasure.

Off to a Late Start.

I hate when I get off to a late start, especially on a work day. Woke up late bc the Power went out earlier so the Electric Company could do their routine maintenance.  I should have gotten up when I hear it kick back on, but I was too comfortable and I didn't hear my Daughter up yet so I took advantage of some extra sleep. Well I didn't get out of bed till 11am. As soon as I saw it was 11 I was like oh shit, not good. Jumped out of bed, went to get DD up then make her Breakfast. 


I'm glad I'm off this weekend. I always work the weekends and I get my days off during the week by choice. But I always say I have no problems working the weekends just as long as if I request one off, I better get it. So usually during the summer I like to request a weekend off just to relax and play catch up. Probably going to go food shopping one of the days since one the local markets is having their awesome meat sale so it's time to stock up the freezer till their next one since they pretty much have it once a month.


Will be nice I can play catch up with the laundry too. I wish I could use the clothes line outside since it's so nice out but I have no clothes pins which sucks. When we go out on Tuesday to do our weekly thing I think I'll get some. I can't wait till the Super Walmart by us is open already. Since I live in a pretty remote area it's the only Department store we have out by us. Will save us a 45 min trip to the nearest one if we had to get anything not food related. Since the one we have right now is just a reg Walmart they are very limited on what they have, Since the super one is obviously bigger I can't wait till they open so they will have a bigger selection of things. Will save us the gas and mileage on our cars in the long run.


Walmart is a love hate kind of store. I hated when I worked for them, they are the worst company to work for. But they have great deals and when it's the only place to shop your pretty much forced to shop there if it saves you a long ass trip. Would you rather Drive 15 mins to go to Walmart, or do you want to drive 45 mins to Town to get to the mall? 


Well I think that's enough ranting this morning. Need to get ready for work soon, and I still haven't made anything for my self for breakfast yet.

IRL Farming

So a couple weeks ago I started to plant some seeds and at first they were doing really good and then all of a sudden I started losing some, no idea why. So a friend of mine was helping me look some stuff up because she was doing the same thing and had the same problem and the site she directed me to was a big help. So if your plants start to Wither check this site out and it will explain all the possible ways it could have happened. Mine happened to have been disease and improper lighting indoors. Since I got rid of all the diseased plants and changed the lighting in my Laundry room (only kitty proof room) I haven't had any issues with my seedlings and many more are starting to sprout. I can't wait to Harvest all my hard work down the road. This yeah is definitely a learning in progress, now that I know more hopefully next year goes easier lol. Here are some pictures of how things are going right now.

1 can Hormel chili w/o beans

1 can Kidney beans

1 can diced tomatoes

1 can diced tomatoes w/ green chilies

Hope you like it.

Emergency Room's Suck!

*RANT*

So last night I had left work early to take my Fiance to the ER, he was complaining of Chest pains, hard time breathing, blurred vision, numbness/tingling in his arms/hands.

We got there at 10pm, Checked in then waited for the Triage to take him in to take his vitals and stuff. They didn't take him back till 10:20p. I didn't go with him for that but they had him in there for about 40 mins. When he came out he said they did an EKG, drew blood and took his Vitals. They sent us over to registry where then they took him back for a chest X-Ray. He came back out from that really quick, we finished registering, then sat down in the waiting area.

Well we didn't taken back to an actual room until 3:30am. Then it took 20 mins for a Physicians Assistant to come back and ask us what was going on. She said she wanted to draw more blood to recheck his heart enzymes and also wanted to give him a shot for the pain. Well we waited all the way up until 5am when we said enough was enough and said we wanted to leave.

My mom had our Daughter, we were both exhausted we just wanted to get the hell out of there and go home. The PA came in with his discharge papers and said that from the initial tests they took when we got there that she said it had nothing to do with his heart and that to just take Ibuprofen for the pain if it returns. When we asked her what happened that we never got anything else she said that an Urgent care patient came in they were tending to her.

IDK if they were short handed or what bc we saw allot of people there, it wasn't even that busy with people coming in so IDK what their excuse was but we were pretty pissed off to say. I'm glad everything came back normal that nothing was wrong, but we didn't need to be there waiting for 7hrs just to find that out.

*END RANT*
