I went for a good bike ride this afternoon. If anything I pushed it a little. I'm rather tired of not feeling very well, and so in defiance I got on the bike and rode for about an hour or so. It's been a frustrating week, because I'm still not feeling 100%. I keep getting this vertigo feeling here and there throughout the day. I went to the doctor yesterday and he thinks I might have an inner ear infection, but he's not sure. He gave me a perscription for vertigo.

So I've actually missed a whole week of work.

Tomorrow I'm participating in a big parking lot sale. The city is opening one of the parking lots at a rec. Center and people can come and park their cars and sell stuff out of their trunk. There will be hundreds of people there. It should be interesting. Tonight I have to get organized. I'm selling a bunch of my friend L.'s stuff too.

Have a good weekend.

-Ciao!

I woke up this morning thinking I maybe should have gone to work, but I'm glad I didn't go. Later in the day I was stuck by the same ugly dizzy feeling I've been having for the past few days. I get a headache with it and sometimes nausia too. I don't like it. I hope that tomorrow morning I will feel well enough to go to work. I guess I must have some kind of bug. There is something going around right now as several people have been off work in the past few weeks.

So I had a somewhat busy day today anyway. I went to the mall to get some groceries, picked up some prints from Black's and forgot to get cat litter at Wall Mart, so I had to drive back to the mall later in the afternoon.

I also listed some items on Ebay--something I haven't done in a while--and I scheduled them to start on the weekend. I have a lot of stuff that needs to go on Ebay.

Well, I better go get some sleep now.

Ciao!

I stayed home from work today, still not feeling well. I must have some kind of bug I guess. It's a drag. Hopefully I'll feel better tomorrow.

I got email from my lovely J.S. from Ontario this morning and that made my whole day, as well as email from her friend S. who sent me some more great photos! Thank you both! ;-)

Here's some photos from today with the webcam.





Here's some from the car show on the weekend and one of me from Steveston. My friend A. took that one while I was shooting some cow pictures with the medium format camera.













Ciao!

I'm at a friend's place right now and I just noticed that none of my images are showing up in my journal here. It's not your computer, it's the image host Village Photos that's been up and down a lot lately. It bugs me because it's a service that I pay for. Usually they are very good, but I guess because of the upgrading they've been doing they've had quite a few problems lately.

I still fill a little ill today. Last night I was feeling pretty sick. I don't know what I ate that made me ill. Today I'll just have to take it easy and eat simple food.

OK, I'm off.

Ciao.

This morning I couldn't seem to log on my journal, I think it was down or something. It's working now though.

Today was a pretty good day. The yard sales this morning weren't too great though. There didn't seem to be that many of them, and the prices weren't too good.

After the yard sale hunting was over I picked up some Timbits* and coffee and I went to my best friend L.'s work place and had lunch with her. After that, I drove out to Langley to see the great big car show. There was some pretty nice cars there. I took photos of my favorites. I'll post some here when I upload them, but I think I'll also creat a link to the whole volume of photos so that anyone to wants to can view them all.

After the car show I went to my parent's place for dinner. Unfortuantely my stomach became very upsat a little while after. I'm not certain why, but I think something I ate did not agree with me. I have a very delicate stomach and so I have to be careful with what I eat. It's frustrating some times.

Well, I guess I should get busy. I have to install a new network router and then I'm going to start processing these car show photos.

Ciao!





*The phenomenally successful Timbit (bite-sized donut hole) was introduced to the chain in 1976. Customers can buy these bite-sized treats in whatever quantity they prefer, with most people favoring the Snack Pack™ of 20 Timbits or the Family Pack™ of 45 Timbits.

Customers may find that the selection of donuts and Timbits vary slightly between Tim Hortons stores. This is because, while every store must carry some "required" varieties, they may also choose from many optional varieties to best meet the needs - and tastebuds - of their store's customers.

Oh boy, it's hot today! I was working mostly out on the street, doing pruning and stuff. I nearly melted. I'm ready for the cooler weather now, as long as it doesn't rain too much. I saw these people on little scooters today while I was in the big work truck. I had my camera with me, so I shot a pictures through the truck windshield.

At lunch time we found a nice cool spot in a park. I had two fillet-o-fish burgers and some fries for lunch because I was too tired last night to make a lunch for the next day. I don't really like fast food, but I was pretty hungry. A few crows began to gather around where I was sitting. I didn't want my fries, so I gave them to the crows.



I like crows. They're very fascinating to me.

They gobbled up my fries quickly and effectively.


When I returned to the main works yard today there was a new truck there for us. It's pretty nice; leather interior, air conditioning--the whole works. I'm not sure who gets to drive it yet though.

Here's some of the guys checking it out:

Here's some more photos from the weekend.

This is me with the medium format Mamiya C-330 camera. My friend A. took these photos with my digital camera.

It sure is a lot of fun using the big camera. I hope my photos turn out nice.

Cows Crossing!

Here's some acorns I got at work today. I had to trim a large oak tree. I didn't see any squirrels around, but they would have loved these!

I'm off to bed now. Happy Friday everyone! Gnite.
