The stare.....

Button is not so sure about the old clock.  He was concerned that it was invading his space.  He finally went over and sniffed it but he still kept looking up and giving me the stare.

Unkown rock......agatized something.....

A rock solid macro!!!!!

I found this in the garage as it had fallen behind a shelving unit.  It doesn't look like an Iowa rock and it could have been purchased as a rock show. It is very shiny and has a lot of striations in it.

Wednesday with Summer Nostalgia.....

Brownware and croquet anyone........

Monday's special effects.......

Calipers, thimble........and

The things you find while digging through junk.  The thimble was a free item from an animal feed store.

This is small and made from wood.  It maybe was attached to something else but it is worth saving.  It is a mystery.


I am not stopping blogging but I am going to slow down for a while. It may be just pictures and a title for here on out.

I have a right hand with problems that I have to deal with for awhile.  My hammering hand, my hand that get's hit by falling items, and the hand that just does a lot of the major work on the end of my arm.

Diet may be the problem with too much sugar, cold weather may be the problem, an accident to the hand a year ago may have been it, and I don't want to say arthritis because that would mean old age.  Whatever the problem, I don't think keyboarding is the problem and yet I am going to give the hand and arm a rest. A couple of fingers are the ones with the major pain.  I will still be here and using the working of the mouse isn't  the problem.  The rest is a wait and see thing.

I will check in on a good day and say a few words even though some of  you are probably saying, the guy is going to finally shut up for a change.

Friday's ice storm was distressing to our cockatiel as he wants to be able to see out of his window.
