Duncan, We’ll Miss You
The girls and I were very saddened to hear of the sudden passing of my sister’s dog Duncan. Duncan was a beloved member of the family; my girls think of Suze and Duncan as a unit and are disappointed when Suze can’t bring him on her visits to Texas or Georgia. When we were in

As Gazoo’s birthday was just two days ago, today was her annual checkup. See how excited she is to go? She tried to hide, but she really isn’t all that bright. I don’t love our vet, but they are convenient and have never done anything that worries me, so we keep going … once a
Gazoo’s Fourth Birthday
When Gazoo walked in the door and made herself at home in our house at the end of October of 2007, we had no idea where she came from or how old she was, though it was obvious she was pretty young. We took her off to the vet, who said she was about four
dumbledore – 26 apr 2011
Dumbledore was going a bit crazy in her tank today (the season, the weather, the blueberries?), so we let her loose in the house. She wandered around for hours exploring the main floor — we blocked of the stairs down, just in case. Unlike her standard behavior, she didn’t head for a corner — she

Gazoo has her own bedroom in our house. (At least she thinks it is hers.) But she also loves to nap in the midst of the working, homeschooling, playing too.
spring – 17 apr 2011
Gazoo is enjoying these spring days!
butterfly day – 7 apr 2011
The time has come to release the butterf;ies that we had raised from young caterpillars. Gazoo was horrified; she thought she should have them as toys…
gazoo – 18 mar 2011
I took a couple hundred photos of Gazoo today while testing out time lapse gadget. Thankfully, Gazoo does not seem to mind having her photo taken!
Gazoo in Time Lapse
I was quite surprised a few months ago when I realized that my digital SLR did not have any built-in functionality for time lapse photography. I still don’t undertand why not, but I do now have a little time lapse gadget, thanks to Rob. Today, I decided to try it out for the first time.
gazoo – 4 mar 2011
Gazoo loves to hang out and keep on eye what’s going on as the kids play in the living room …
gazoo – 26 feb 2011
Gazoo enjoyed the quite midday while the girls were gone but I was home to let her in and out as she pleased. What a life!
gazoo – 23 feb 2011
Chloe claims that Gazoo was playing spy but that her ears gave her away.
gazoo – 11 feb 2011
Last night and this morning were hard for Gazoo as she had to spent so much energy setting up her Facebook site. You can friend her at Gazoo Butera on Facebook.
gazoo – 9 feb 2011
What is it with that cat? She just *has* to put herself right in the middle of whatever it is we are doing. Here she’s hijacked Camille’s homeschooling….
gazoo – 26 jan 2011
As much as the girls pick on her, Gazoo loves it when we are home. Camille wrapped her up in a newly knitted shawl while she relaxed on the couch.
dumbledore – 9 jan 2011
On the days when I clean out the turtle’s cage, she gets to run around the house .. though she generally heads into the deepest corner of the kitchen. The freedom is overwhelming for her, I suppose.
gazoo – 1 jan 2011
Gazoo is quite happy that we came home from Florida and has been sitting on me as much as possible… One of my resolutions for 2011 is to get more comfortable using my external flash, so I dusted it off and used it to take this photo.
Macro Fun
Clearing out my to-do last month included my crossing off an item that had been on the list for two years — buying a new lens. I wavered between a fish-eye lens and a macro lens for so long, I forced myself to finally choose. I ended up with a nice macro lens! I can’t
you’re grounded!
last night the girls and I called our kitty Gazoo in at the usual time — when it starts to get dark. She didn’t come. Unusual for her to not come, but not unheard of. As the night got later, we became more and more concerned. Rob and the girls searched all the nearby streets;
