HLW no wait Friday

approaching storm
*Another delayed holga loving wednesday. 
*Pic is an approaching late May summer storm taken from the deck on our house. 
*I love black and white, makes a pic so much more dramatic
*been doing research to find a toy 35mm camera to play with.  I want something w/ a wide angle lens.
*I’ve found ways to be more productive this week.
*Productivity is catching up w/ me and I’ve been exhausted the last couple days.
*have a doc appt today, R gets to go w/ me, hopefully he’s good.
*R is in the middle of a growth spurt, apparently growing is hard work.  He’s hungry all the time and easily made grouchy.  =)  or maybe that’s just his momma coming out in him.
*still crocheting when I can, it’s slow progress
*I’ve gotten myself hooked on West Wing reruns, although I don’t get to watch it closely, but at least its on in the back ground
*day time TV is awful so at least there is West Wing to look forward to.
*This is the first week C worked all five days, it’s been a very long week.
