Good morning Lynn we are addictive aren’t we? but what an addiction, Good friends Good coffee Good conversations.
Yetta you found us yet? good job on the cleaning out of the D-IL’s closet and not bringing too much home. If I only had 60 T-shirts I would be trying to rill up the space some of my T-shirts are over 20 years old and still good or have great memories
Lil mouse you still here? Meemaw hanging out with the grandkids or canning?

Hi Pollyanna I just bought a new Nikon Quick pix 4300s a couple weeks ago. It is a pretty easy to use, point and shoot camera. Use the macro feature. A good feature for me is the easy to see touch screen on the back. Though in the beginning I had a lot of shots of my feet. Don’t be afraid to take photos and as one of my photo instructors said “Toss your bad photos and only show your good ones. It builds confidence”. The nice thing about digital is you can toss those bad ones early, and retake the shot. Take a look at the lens of your camera and see if it is clean. One good fingerprint or smudge can change your photo dramatically. check to make sure your using the Macro option. And what the Heck sometimes you just need a new camera. Oddly my last camera was the same but the number was 100, and it did take a bit of abuse from me dropping it.(ok alot) what I liked was the rechargable battery and that was part of my decision on which to buy. not the fancy features.
welcome and be sure to check in and chat as you can see we have a lot of fun conversations and always love more persons and points of view.

Bones are good. makes a dog feel right at home. I did not sign up for the Renfaire, I had thought about in January before I was working and remodeling the garage. Maybe next year. when I am more together. Yeah Right. I was spending my quiet work times reworking some of my listings, but that was before I went on the book buying binge, and brought the route 66 book into work. I am so easily distracted ohhh wait Lunch??? I got a piece of bread and some cheese see ya gonna eat my lunch

yep that is what I paid and the nice thing is the battery is rechargable so you don’t have to spend a lot on replacing batteries

Wow, I feel like I accomplished something today but I still have such a long way to go. It takes a long time to pack about 500 ornaments. I’m only about 1/4 of the way there. I took them to the new place and then unpacked them and put them in the cupboard. Then I can bring back the packing material and bags I carried them over in. It’s more work in the beginning but will be less at the other end (I hope).

I’m beat, I’m going to have an early dinner, a bit more packing and then an early night. See you all in the morning.

OWww NCIS I missed it. Watching Dancing with the Stars. Some good ones all the previous winners. Taping Castle needed to work. Took pictures all day. 250 photos of 10 items. Ohhhhh poor Yetta she does get carried away. Did get some nice ones though.LOL>> Got stuff out for tomorrows photos. Antique keys and religious medals are tomorrows project. Don’t know much about either of them and that makes it harder. Oh well. Im tuckered to so I am calling it a day and see you in the morning. Yetta

Good morning all. I thought I’d sleep in this morning but oh no, I was awake at my usual 6:15 am. I could start packing but there is a young woman sleeping upstairs that works long hours and I don’t think she’d appreciate being awakened this early. So I’ll have to wait a bit. I might go finish packing some books, that should be fairly quiet.

But first I’m just enjoy my coffee and watch the sun come up. Hope everyone has a wonderful day.

Morning Coffees great I got an early start. Got lots of photos ready to go. Lynne thanks for the idea about the medals. I photod old keys as well. Moved on to other items in the junke drawer. Gads I have sooo much stuff. Sold 3 items yesterday on the bay all smalls. It adds up. LOL Deanne we watch NCIS all the time. Mostly reruns. At dinner we watch our tapped shows. Hubby goes to bed early so he tapes all the shows and we watch and eat. Does anyone eat at the table anymore. I did till I met him. My mother would not think of letting us eat at the TV. All my kids eat on trays infront of the TV. LOL Love to stay and chat but got to focus on these darn photos. Back in a flash Yetta

I need to make a comment on the social behavior being discussed here:

People who watch NCIS and DWTS, while eating in front of the TV, are COOL people in my book!! I tape my shows to watch them when it’s convenient, but also to avoid commercials.

I usually have dinner eaten by the time NCIS is on the regular TV and It is the only current show I will sit down and watch. However what I do eat is a bit of Dk Chocolate. my treat. AND it’s healthy. If you don’t eat the whole 1 lbs bar in one sitting. I tell my family that 8:00 Tuesday night is off limits do not call If you are offering to make dinner it must be done and eaten before 8:00.
I can’t justify the cost of cable for watching only one show that I get on regular antenna. Though I do love American pickers. I would watch it on my computer but it is so disjointed 2 minutes of show 3 minutes of loading 1 minute of show 5 minutes of loading. While I was on jury duty I saw Cash and Cari I liked that too.
so evenings I usually settle down with my dvd’s and am happy I saw an interview of Penny Marshal on the Today show and thought Lavern and Shirley would be fun to have but I cannot find it so they may have not released on dvd. Maybe Happy Days. maybe the Cosby show. I have the currently available Barney Miller a Bit of Three’s company. most of Emergency all of West Wing, NCIS and JAG, and the only one of WKRP that was released.
I stay entertained.
welcome Pollyanna you are so one of us!!!

Hi D,
Got a new baby and it’s keeping me hopping. Need to get video of the little guy. It’s a bottle baby. First one for me, they are usually a bit bigger when I get them

And well-brought up deer as well. That’s when you wished you had a video camera.

Good morning everyone. Another day in paradise. Lots to do, that seems to be the norm these days. I’m packing, Yetta is taking pictures and listing and Deanne is sorting patterns and finishing up her garage when she’s not working. I hope everyone’s day proceeds well and has lots of sales. Time to get my coffee and get to work.

Just think about Renfaire starting in a week and that should help. Then think of all the sales your going to have and that should give you that extra push. But sometimes you just have to sit back and relax for a day and then get back at it the next. You’ve really been working hard for the past couple weeks.

I actually had to Dump the first pot of coffee. First I dumped the 1st cup thought it was bad milk. No help. Then I dumped the pot and used bottled water. That worked. They have a lot of clorine in our water right now and it is awful. Uk.. I did get 4 new ones on but just dragging today.
I am just going to nap and rest up. Long week already. Thanks girls.
