Stetz, I would like to take a photography course, too, but the only ones I've found are for composing pictures. I want to learn how to use the darned camera! I took one from Big Picture Scrapbooking, but it was pretty useless.
Becky
Kelly, it's easy to get distracted when you have a day of blah to tackle. BTDT
Ashley, sorry for the dance class woes!
Stetz, I guess practice makes perfect with Erik?? I like Alissa's suggestion.
Kelly, wow! You hit the trip lottery! I know what you mean about the organizing and planning, but maybe this is God's way of forcing you to go with the flow. People like us need to experience that now and then!
Whit, that is great that Titanic 3D was wonderful. I was thinking about you this morning when I heard a radio commercial for the movie.
Mandi, I hope you can catch a break soon. I hate the "when it rains it pours" syndrome.

Kelly, I just used my Visa when I went to England. It's everywhere you want to be.
You would think! DS1 spent a summer working in Scotland and touring Europe. After a few weeks, his credit card company called our house and left a message saying that if he didn't call them back within so-many hours, they would cut off his card because of suspicious activity (suspicious meaning the card was being used in another country). We couldn't reach DS1, so the card got cut off. When he went to Africa, he contacted his bank ahead of time. They still cut him off after a month.

Hiya? Went to Church today for Holy Thursday Mass...it was a trilingual Mass so, despite going to Catholic school for like ever, I was confuzzled most of the time LOL!
Stephanie- The new camera sounds like a lot of fun! Maybe there's like an online forum to give you tips or something for using it. (shrugs) That's my guess anyway. Sorry about the situation with Erik...perhaps he needs a good talking to.
Kelly- HOLY FISHSTICK! That vacation sounds awesome! I'd love to do something like that someday. My mom would never go on vacation without my dad...he'd make her feel terribly guilty about going without him.
Alissa- Hope your field day went well!
Whitney- Glad you enjoyed Titanic in 3D. I'm not sure I'll go see that movie...once was quite enough LOL!

Good morning gals! Well, last night was a bust trying to learn anything with the new camera. Paul & Dakota were here from about 5 to 7 mowing, and Dakota was in here talking to me most of the time. That was fine by me. Then I spent time with Elias before putting him to bed, which was then going to be my learning time, but then Paul & Erik started texting me...and by the time they quit about 9:30, I was just too tired to read that little manual anymore.
Erik was upset with me b/c I didn't want him to come over. Sorry, but I really did mean it when I said I didn't want to be a couple. I guess eventually he'll learn.
OH...I'll definitely sign up for the BFF...no trading though...don't have a DH. LOL Alissa...maybe we should meet at Disney World this summer, me you and the kids?? Wouldn't that be cool!!
Mandi...it is sooo overwhelming dealing with multiple problems at once and it is hard to keep your head up when it just keeps hitting...but I know you are strong and I know you are going to get through this just like you have gotten through so much before! I have faith in you!!!
Jen...our community college offers classes, but none in this year. Their is a wealth of info on the web, but it is hard to learn just by reading. I'd like someone to show me! That's crazy about your DS getting his card cut off...what did he do?
Shatima, sorry about the timing belt in your car! I really hate it when random stuff like that happens.
Alissa...where did you go on the field trip? Was it fun?

I was only in England for a week so that's an interesting point, Jen. And definitely deserves consideration! I had British currency as well but I'd rather use plastic as much as possible.
It would be totally cool, Stetz! I'll let you know when I have money... again, would have to trade in the DH  He is considering a summer job. He has no hobbies and he knows this debt is his mess. He's obviously feeling guilty that I'm helping so much and then have almost nothing for myself  I really hope he finds something that makes good use of his time.

Stetz yeah on the camera. Im sure your sister will love whatever pics you take.
Mandi. as I read your post I can so relate we have been there many times. Im so sorry you are going thru this right now. Please feel free to share.
Kelly wow what a trip. Its so neat that you get to do something like that with your best friend.
shatima bummer on the car and scrapping supplies. It seams like we are all having some bad luck lately.
Im going shopping for Easter today. I haven't even started getting stuff for baskets. We are going to friends for dinner so I dont have to worry about that. With everything thats been going on I just haven't put much thought into it.

I found this Spiderman thing in clearance at Ms last night. It's a coloring comic book, complete with a code for matching website. On the website, you can submit a digital pic of your kiddie and then the pic gets turned into a comic-like photo. THEN, you can add these pictures to the book. So, in the end, DS would be part of the story. Turns out, it wasn't on clearance  I might go back for it with a coupon today. I really liked and DS would love it.
