A Day in the Life Of

Our topic this week is excellent – a day in the life of Nixie Lix.
Being the middle of summer here in New Zealand, most of the action in our house happens before lunch.  As the sun hits the middle of the sky, we have temperatures of 28-30 degrees and this, combined with the lack of ozone, means we all scarper inside and under the air conditioner or beside the fan.  As we are still off work on our summer holidays, life is VERY relaxed in our house.

7am – wake up time.  Even the dogs are lazy.  Nixie will get up for breakfast and thats about it.

8:30am – the ‘What are we doing today’ look.  Could there be swimming?  Are we going to play?

8:45am – Please please please throw my frisbee!

9am – Nixie has an absolute ball with her frisbee whilst I attempt to catch her with a panning technique.  I’m not happy with any of these, she’s just so fast!

11am – I have a very happy dog.

12am – Strutting into the driveway carrying her frisbee like an award – I’m home!!

2pm – after consuming a bowl of ice, Nixie has made herself comfortable on the bed in the coolest room in the house and thats all we will see of her for some time.

5pm – Django decides its time for Nixie to wake up but she has a knack of telling him to back off and let her rest.

8pm – post dinner, Nixie plonks herself down in her bed and looks at me as if to say ‘Can we do it all again tomorrow?’ and then refuses to look at me until I put the camera away for the night.

I’m looking forward to doing this challenge again in another season – I would love to compare and see how different our Autumn and Winter days are but in the mean time …
