An Update With Pics!

(I would post this in General, but I figured only Cat People would remember me!) :)

Thought I would give an update to those who remember me. I sneak in every so often to catch up on everyone here, but I don't have nearly the same amount of internet time that I had a year ago. ;)

The most exciting thing in my life recently was selling my first photo. As a hobby I have been learning digital photography and last month someone actually bought one of my photos! It was too thrilling even if I don't sell anything else! :lol3: Also, I will be selling my current camera and upgrading to a better camera this fall. I am *very* excited about that prospect.

Rob and I have continued to restore our house and have been going to the cottage as much as we can. Here's a few pics:

We started to build a 8 x 12 shed in the backyard:

We also have planted a few trees to cover a chain link fence in our backyard. Hope they continue to grow since I seem to kill everything I plant!

Every other weekend we have gone to my cottage. Nakita absolutely loves going up there because she has so many new things to investigate. She also has become quite the navigator, giving Rob directions as we drive up:

Once at the cottage, there are a million things to photograph:

Of course, I have to end with a pic of Nakita since she wouldn't forgive me otherwise! An alternative pic of the Emerald Princess :rolleyes:

It looks like I will even be busier this fall. I will be going back to school to upgrade some business courses and will be doing major renovation on my house. We just had an architect do some new layouts of our house and will begin to tackle that one room at a time.


Just wanted to check in so all you guys didn't think I forgot the site!

:)

How the heck could we ever forget you guys and your gorgeous Nakita. :)

A big hearty CONGRATULATIONS on the selling of your photo. How exciting and I pray that you do well with this.

That picture of Nakita with Rob in the truck is just too beautiful.
What an awesome picture.

I can see why someone would want to buy a photo of yours, as you are one fabulous photographer.

I hope you will be able to drop by now and then and show us the progress you have done on your cottage and of course to show more pictures of your gorgeous Nakita with the most beautiful emerald eyes. :D

Oh Kass, I'm so excited to see you back. :) I was thinking about you just the other day and have been meaning to email. Forgive me. :o

Wow, it sounds like life is busier than ever for you and I'm so happy for you that one of your photos has sold!! **doing the happy dance** Let this be the beginning of something big.

Nakita, it's so nice to see your smiling facie again and those beautiful emerald eyes. I've missed them terribly. Kisses to you sweetie and please be careful up at the cottage. You never know what lurks behind the next bush.

The one with Nakita giving driving instructions to her daddy is my favorite, probably because there is a beautiful cat on it! ;)
Nice to meet you and Nakita!

Nakita is not the only one who would never forgive you if you made a thread without a photo of her in it. :D
