How to wake someone up....

I spent at least 5 minutes trying to think of something to call this post..... so these are some of the pictures i took today too. Sometimes it really amazes me how smart animals are....not that i thought they where stupid.....well... some small dogs are......
well, this is the picture that the post was named after....can't get somebody to get up in the morning??? simple stand on them :) In this picture Daisy is standing on top of Phil. Just so you know... Phil is the light brown, curled up, adorable fuzzy thing laying in the background.....

Summer Rain........Again

This year, our summer has been really rainy. Unlike last year that was hot and dry. Today it rained.....again....and i decided that i wouldn't let such a day go by for nothing! I got my mom to hold an umbrella for me so i could take pictures outside and not get my camera wet.
These are raindrops on a window on our second floor.

Daily Ferret

Phil and Daisy ( the ferrets ) have this big hammock in their cage that they love to sleep in. Now that it's summer time we usually keep the door on to our deck open to let some air in. On those days Phil and Daisy like to stretch out on their backs in the hammock and let the breeze tickle their tummies :P
That there is Daisy. Sadly Phil didn't make it in to this picture because he was relaxing somewhere else :P

Writing on Tree Leafs

So a couple of weeks ago i was taking all the paper out of my school binders, and giving all the pens and stuff I didn't need to my mom ( she always seems to have a lack of pencils in her office... ) and in that big pile of stuff i found one of those jumbo sized sharpies! That sharpie was my inspiration for these pictures. Yes, even a sharpie can be inspirational....
cool idea right? 

Paper Dragons

Last week i decided to try origami! So, me being the person that i am, instead of going and starting off with the easiest and working my way up, i decided to go and try folding something harder right of the bat :) and guess what!!?? It actually work! YouTube, it is has many things uploaded on it, and many of which are origami tutorials! ( your welcome :) i just gave you an excuse for not buying a book on how to fold origami! )
So i'm just sitting there scrolling through, and boom! i found how to fold a dragon..... 

isn't it beautiful?! I most defiantly like it :)

 One quote for you!
Enjoy life, there's plenty of time to be dead :)

The Lily Files

And hello once more :) Sorry for not posting anything for a long time. I have a lot of pictures i want to share with you all but i'm just too lazy! I have lots of time, and enough pictures to post something everyday, but i like to sleep in ( broke my record by the way, now it's 2 PM) and then just walk around the house doing nothing for a couple of hours :) Last weekend we had a festival here. It is a festival dedicated to Lily's. Not far out of town there is something i guess you could call a lily farm. They have over 100 different types of lily's there. My favorite ones where the big ones, and when i say BIG i mean they were bigger than my hand... I decided it would be cool to go down there and take some picture.

The Reason Behind The Name.....

In the previous post ( or was it the one before that? ) i said that i would explain why we called my cat Sandwich. The reason i want to explain this is because most people probably think that its really weird and not something you call a pet. We had a cat before Sandwich, his name was Foma, ( seems like all your pets names are weird.... is probably what your thinking.... ) but only our cats have such interesting name :) Anyways, Foma he was an outdoor cat ( i'm trying to think of a way to make this sound less sappy/ cheesy which ever you prefer ) and he was already getting kind of old, and one day he just never came back..... We still have many pets in our house ( 130 pound dog, two big nosed ferrets ) but it didn't really feel the same as before.... ( ok, i agree, that sounded really depressing... ) so we decided to get another cat!!!!!! ( if i didn't want to talk in third person i would have put a sarcastic comment here... ) My dad found a lady giving away here cat because her son was allergic to cats ( or something along those lines ) When we went to pick him, he was very, VERY quite.... he was also calm...... the women told us that his name was Scooter ( here it come.... the moment of truth.... ) wait, lets back peddle a little.... SO my family is Russian ( cool right???!!! ) and we talk Russian at home, now we can peddle back forward........ so the first thing my mom whispered to me ( in Russian ) was, "Sandwich"..... first i thought she wanted a sandwich, but then if you think it through a bit..... if you change the "Sc" in Scooter, with a "B" and try saying it with a Russian accent, or if your Russian saying it in Russian should do just fine as well.... you get "Sandwich" in Russian ( IT'S A MIRACLE!!!! AND WE ALL THOUGHT YOU WHERE CRAZY FOR A CALLING YOUR CAT A SANDWICH!!!

A Little Peak Outside

It really amazing how many cool looking pictures you can take not leaving your own lawn. All these pictures where taken outside of my house ( No really? ) I usually go out every couple of weeks and see if anything new has happened. Its quite amazing how many things actually DID change. I may take a picture of something i already took before, but if you put them side by side they still will look really different. I can't really think of anything else smart to say.....
These pictures were taken after it rained. about this first picture, i really like it because....
( *gets out thesaurus* )
this statue ( or whatever you want to call it ) looks very "prepossessing" because you see every little indent :)

Colored Skys

When i post something, i always make more than one post at a time. Most of the time when i post something it's always in the dead of night ( for those of you who haven't noticed ). I usually sit down and look through all the files i have on my laptop and write down the numbers of the files ( the numbers are usually the dates the photos where uploaded) but with so many files which equals many numbers my brain always gets confused when i try to find the file again. So i came up with an idea.... i give each file a weird name. So far its working out good :D When i decide i want to post something, i usually create something called "THE MASTER LIST" i usually write down the number of the picture and the name of the file. so in the end the master list ends up looking really weird.... any ways......please scroll down and take a look at the pictures :)

Clouds

Have you ever looked up at the sky and saw some of the clouds as different objects or animals? I'm going to take a guess and say most of you have... I like days  like that. Not all the time, but some days. Mostly  i like rainy gray skied days. Those days, i like to call "The Lazy Days". I took these pictures around the end of June. The sky that day was an amazing shade of blue!

Cat on the Table

I have this L shaped glass table in my bedroom and i have really big windows that are almost floor to ceiling  ( our ceilings are about 12 feet high ) anyways, my table is right against those windows. A couple of weeks ago when i took these pictures it was raining outside. My cat was standing on his back legs tying to look out the window to see what was going on outside. ( he usually sits outside on our deck and watches  and creeps our neighbors out. but mostly meows really loudly and scares them because they cant see him because he is sitting on the second floor deck...... two story deck..... so pro..) So being the kind hearted  (mostly sarcastic though ) person that i am, i lay a blanket out on my table and put him on it, and right away he makes this face kind of like, "Stupid... you fell for it again." sometimes it amazes me how smart that cat is....

Snow Days

I am absolutely lazy! I have two months off from school ( like most people still in school ) and i am like a bear. Most bears sleep during the winter time though, but not me! I like to catch up on my sleeping during the summer time when it is too hot to go outside. That may be the only reason that i like summer. My favorite seasons are fall and winter. ( also spring, considering the years when we actually have one. This year it snowed in May..... so, you know.....) I like taking pictures during the winter time because everything just looks so calm. ( not counting the occasional big dog wrestling you to the ground. which most of the time is fun :) ) Back to the fact that i'm lazy and like to sleep in ( my record is 1: 15 PM... still trying to break it everyday....) those two would be the main reason that i haven't posted anything in a couple of days. I have taken some fresher pictures but when i was sorting my pictures on my laptop i stumbled across some of the pictures i took when it snowed in May! And yes you did read that correctly... it snowed in May....

Winter Snowflakes

Also pictures found in the big file of pictures on my laptop :D If you haven't figured out what these pictures are going to be about, they are going to be about SNOW! I took these pictures right after a light snow fall and hopefully you enjoy them :)
This picture here shows that the snow was still very fresh.

I like this picture because i thought i was a cool idea. But i got snow all over my camera from my gloves afterwards though...

In this picture you can still see the gray sky from when the snow was falling.


The snow covered all the pine needles on the big pine tree in our yard, and so i took a picture of it. It turned out quite cool actually :)

I like the color in this pictures a lot. I had to stand underneath the pine tree trying not to hit any of the branches so snow didn't fall on me.

I have taken SO many pictures of this fire hydrant I could do a whole photo album called.
"The Fire Hydrant in Our Yard Through Out the Season."
Actually!!! That's a good idea!!!

This is the smaller pine tree.

This is the other pine again, but what i like about this picture is that you can see all the snow resting on the branches.

This is a picture of the lake in our town. you can't see the water because it's covered in ice, cover in snow.

These where just a pile of branches very nicely covered in snow...

This is a picture of even MORE pine trees..


This is my dogs foot print in the snow... it is almost the same size as my hand...which my hand is very big...for those of you whole play piano, my hand can stretch to a 9th... so imagine that size of paw on a dog. 

This was a VERY lucky shot! It also shows the size of that tongue!

Thanks for reading, and come again :D

Fire Fire...

If you read the post before this (which i strongly suggest for the amount of adorableness found in it ) you will remember that i mentioned saying that i found a whole pile of pictures i took last winter. And if you read the posts before that ( Also please read ) i also mentioned that I live in an old Victorian, 120 year old house. And like in any house that old there is ALWAYS a fire place. ( We actually have two) These are the pictures i took of the flames...
I personally think this one looks REALLY cool...

In this one i decided to try taking on in black and white. It also turned out pretty neat :P

random imaginary hug 
<(^^)> 

I like this one because its a close up.

Just a single flame..

A lonely burning stick...

QUOTE OF THE EVENING!
I told my boyfriend to get me a newspaper.
"Don't be silly." he replied. "You can borrow my IPad."
That spider never knew what hit it....

Thanks for reading, and please come back to read more :) 

One Dose of Adorable

When people  talk about their pets and then they ask me if i have any pets, i always answer, "Yes, i have one dog that weighs about 130 pounds, one cat who is fluffy and annoying, and two ferrets who are adorable and stinky at times :P" When ever i get to the part about the ferret (whose names are Phil and Daisy) they always think i say PARROTS instead of FERRETS. When they ask me what the heck a ferret is my best explanation is... "Imagine a long sausage with fur, a nose, whiskers, tail, eyes, and ears." If that doesn't work... "google it."  I was digging around in the photos  i have on my laptop and stumbled across a whole collection of pictures, and in them i found a whole load  of pictures of Phil and Daisy :)
This here is Phil stretching out in their cage. They also have this BIG hammock in their cage that they both love to sleep in. It's quite funny when it's hot outside, because Phil sleeps just like in the picture above except in the hammock, but his head ALWAYS ends up falling out and on to the floor and he doesn't even wake up.... we all wonder afterwards how it's even comfortable to sleep like that... 

Here he already heard me coming so he woke up. I absolutely love his nose in this picture!

Here it was as if he was posing for the camera...  

And i guess he decided that he got tired of being a model...

So he decided to dig a tunnel under neath the big pile of pillow on my bed! ( sorry for the bad quality )

But afterwards he got tired and fell asleep :P


This little blonde is Daisy. She LOVES to bite people! It kind of seems like its her hobby :)

Before she bites though, she always licks your hand first. My mom says it's because she doesn't want to bite a dirty hand...

QUOTE OF THE DAY!
" I had a dream about you.."
" Awwwwwwww, really?"
" Yeah, you died."

Thanks for reading, and come back for more :)
