A Blanket of Snow

This is a picture from the other day. I did some tweaking to it. Maybe I need to find out more about this Photo Shop thing I hear about so often.....can you do really fun stuff with your pictures in that program???

Beautiful photo! Kind of looks like my back yard.

Yes, you can do very fun stuff to your photos in Photoshop, but there are other less pricey programs that can do fun stuff too. It is definitely worth checking around before you dish out the money for Photoshop. Unless you know what you are doing, Photoshop Elements is probably a better place to begin. Not that I'm an expert though because I use Photoshop and barely scrape the surface of the possibilities that exist there. For basic editing I still use Microsoft Office Picture Manager.

Pretty picture. Almost makes me wish the snow. Almost.

I don't have time for any fancy photo stuff. Maybe someday. It is pretty though. We have some cool ones from the ice storm of '02.

(I feel like such a grown-up referring to major weather events like that.)

Oh the ice storm. That was fun. We were living in this house and because it is an old neighborhood we were without electricity and gas for two weeks. We also had a huge tree branch come through the window in Emma's room. Fum times that was.

Both mommy and baby are doing very well. These are just a few from earlier today. More to follow later.

And Just Like That.....

I made the fatal mistake of reading reviews and articles before watching a single episode of the show.  I knew full well I would watch every episode regardless.  I read anyway.  Spoilers? Not bothered.   Let me give some back story here.   At 17/18 my dream had been to go to a big city (Chicago was my thinking at the time), get my degree in journalism/editing/publishing and go work at a big time magazine.  Keep in mind we are talking about the mid 90's here so the idea that magazines would cease to be relevant was not even on my radar.  I had been editor of my high school yearbook and unbeknownst to me at the time, we were actually doing the yearbook by coding and would get printouts hoping we had coded copy correctly.  I just typed the copy I was supposed to type with the weird little codes that had been given to me on a piece of paper.  I would later discover this was actually HTML code we were doing.  Who knew?  This fu...

I Need A Break Before *I* Break

Damn.  There is so much swirling around in my little brain.....So. Much. I am getting ready to enter my most personally difficult time of the year.  Emotionally.  I am also entering my most difficult semester (and LAST!) of college.  Oh, and trying to train for another half marathon.  There are many days as of late that I am not sure how I'm doing it or even why at times.  I am trying to keep it together, trying to keep a balance.  But sometimes I am not sure I am doing so well.  With so many plates to juggle, even if they are ceramic plates, I often feel as though I am dropping one (or more).   I am trying to figure out what I want in life.  What is important to me.  What I need versus what I want.  And how it all fits together with various parts of my life.  I'm learning that sometimes what you think is important is not so much and things that you didn't pay much mind to are actually more importan...
