Too much natural beauty outside but I'm still making some progress

I'm learning to use my camera at the same time as PS Elements and of course doing this blog. By doing this blog, I mean trying to keep it interesting with photos and lists and other cool features.

So this morning I spent about an hour waiting for a hummingbird to appear in my backyard. I did manage to shoot some pix. If they are even reasonably good, I will post them.

Today I plan to finish my tax papers for the accountant. They're a bit more tricky since they will basically close the papers on the business.

If I'm successful doing that, I plan to go on an artist date with myself. That's something Julia Cameron suggests to keep the creative juices flowing. I'll either go to the MAC or to the Heard. I'm not likely to go to the Heard since there's a big festival there today and lately I'm very crowd-averse.

This week I will definitely drive out to Boyce Thompson Arboretum. The wildflowers should be absolutely awesome. That's a real opportunity to shoot photos and hone my camera skills. It sounds like I'm trying to talk myself into this when there's really no need!

Remember---like the flowers, we all grow better in sunshine and LOVE.
