Interaction

I interacted with this flower today. I told it it was pretty and then said let's take a photo of you and then crop you and put some texture on you and add a little textured frame.This is who I really interact with on a daily basis. With DH at work and the kids at school, Baxter and I spend our days together. I tell him he's pretty, too, and then I call him Dumbass. Here he is out on our walk together this afternoon. I think that's his favorite part of the day. Or maybe it's in the morning when DH gets out of bed and he hops up to cuddle me with his butt on DH's pillow. Do you think I can justify the expense of a fisheye lens just to get funny photos of Baxter's face?
And to answer a question some people had about my last post: that blue and green on the bottom is the color of the vase (it's clear on the stem).

Fishy Baxter! Yep! Maybe you should introduce the flower to the dog and see what kind of interaction you get?

HAHAHAHA. I really love your humor. Oh my word! I really needed this post this morning Becky. You are like my cup of coffee.

I love the orange in the first photo. Did you get those from Hannaford? I saw those the other day and almost had to buy them. They are so bright and cheery. The doggy is so cute too. I can so relate to that comment!
