Katy Photography Meetup Photowalk at La Centera

So, today, a group of 7 of us met and did a group photowalk at the La Centera Farmer's Market. We had some fun talking and taking some pictures. I know I enjoyed meeting the new people and talking ``shop'' with some talented people.

Here are some of the photos I took. Click the lower right corner to go to the web album over at Picasa.

Progress Check (Updated)

Time for another belly-gazing type post. An Update on where I am with my goals for the year.

Starting to make some progress on the goals. Getting some things aligned with the wife has really made the difference in some of these.

Photo Time Capsule

Photojojo is a wonderfully quirky site with lots of things about photography. Some of it is about how to take a photo, but a lot of it is how to display photos in a new and interesting way.

One of the services they offer is what they call their Time Capsule service. Once you sign up for this service, they will go look at your Flickr photo stream for interesting pictures taken in the two week period from the years before. I just received my email reminder about my most recent issue. It is neat to sit back and look at a snapshot of the old photos, both to remember what you were doing when you took them, and to see how you have developed as a photographer since then.

Go take some photos!

Another scare...

The boy gave us another scare this week. Some drill, woke up late, sluggish, and cold. Checked the blood sugar and it was waaay low. Off to the ER with us. This time, they ran the correct tests.

We came home today after only one night in the hospital, and the docs think they know what happened. Seems he just finished another growth spurt, and his body used up it stores doing the growing. Since he was tired, he slept longer, and his body did not have enough to keep going.

Simple solution is to make sure we give him some simple sugars and carbs at bed time (mind those teeth, though!), and do not let him sleep in too late, and make sure he has a good breakfast.

They had a name for this, but we missed it. But, he is home, in good health, and has no dietary restrictions. Woot!
