I was at home today. Unusual for me during the week except I had been to the clinic yesterday with the crud. The doctor kindly decided I needed to be back on my feet fast. (Wait, I'd already been on my feet all week!) So he had the nurse give me a shot and I got three prescriptions. There were two problems with this. The first problem was the shot contained a steroid. Steroids and I don't deal well with each other. The second problem was that I didn't find out there was a steroid in it until it was going in my hip.The end result was I had no sleep last night. Felt worse today, and called in. Then slept and did paperwork at home all day. A crummy way to spend the day. John was up, and Steve was keeping an eye on him. His mom is sick and she had gone to see the doctor today. (Not sure if this whole originated with me or John, who had a runny nose last weekend and had been dispensing fish kisses to everyone.)
John came up and beat on the door. He'd been outside helping his Gramps fix the lawnmower, and was covered in dust. I looked out the door and saw butterflies all over my flowers. John saw them too, with a two year old's amazement. Sick or not sick, I saw a photo op, and grabbed Big Girl and started shooting.
This is what I got, almost unretouched. Just some minor light changes, a vignette edge added, and some extraneous details cropped out of some of the photos. I think these are the best raw photos I have probably ever taken.Maybe I ought to only take photos when I am sick.
