Hey those are really nice Laura good.gif

I used to use Paint Shop, swore by it really, was not going to be swayed to use Photoshop. I now use photoshop.

But anyway, they are both really good programs.


Thanks smile.gif
Nick uses photoshop. He has the really awesome one, can't remember what it's called. C something... wacko.gif

Do you offer lessons?


Sure. I use a program called Paint Shop Pro.
It's a really cool program. I make lots of signatures and different things.
Here is a few I've made:

What is GPSing?? I know GPS is global positioning system, is that what Carla means? Do you drive around and see where you are? Will this be an Olympic Sport?

Thanks Laura! Yes, the snow was lovely. I was so excited to see it. Went to a friend's cottage on Georgian Bay for the weekend. Forgot what it was like to feel like the Michelin Man in my snowgear. By the time we left Ontario I was SO ready to get out of the winter coat and boots, though. I like visiting it MUCH better than living it. LOL

Well, we are back from Wintery Ontario. I seem to have brought the weather back with me, though, because they're forecasting snowflurries for this evening along the Florida coast! ohmy.gif

Our flight was two hours delayed in Buffalo..... though not due to the falling snow. It was mechanical failure of our plane and we had to wait for them to deliver another one from Tampa. I think I would have preferred to hear it was due to the snow. We didn't get home until almost 1:00am this morning, but neither of us could get to sleep. So I watched Project Catwalk and HGTV until 3:00am, then tossed and turned until 5:00am when it was time to get back up again. Just popping in to say "hi, Merry Christmas, Happy New Year" and to collect my coffee from Carla. Then it's back to the laundry and the housework. Still have to run out to the store for a few items. I'd better get a move on.

We had a wonderful time while we were away. I'm exhausted from all the visiting though. I did a quick read of a few pages and am so sorry to hear of all the sad news for those who are suffering loss and health issues. You are in my thoughts and prayers. rose.gif

Right. Off to the store for me. whistling.gif


Welcome back Krikit!!
Isn't it beautiful there? I'm so glad it snowed this much the week Nick was here, we really enjoyed it too!
Sorry about the delay in Buffalo, something always has to go wrong.
Glad you weren't inconvenienced for too long! good.gif

First, thanks to all of you who have been sending good vibes our way. Mi madre is doing better, though recovery of this is a long process. She might get out of the ICU at the end of this week. We are all praying for her and keeping in touch. Sometimes I do wonder ####### am I doing so far away from my family, and it has not been easy for either me or Bren, since I am not much fun to be around these days. But, I'm my mother's daughter, so I'm hanging in there.
Again, thanks for the support y'all.


Len,
I'm so proud of you for staying strong through this horrible time.
I wish your mother a very speedy recovery.
Thinking of both you and Bren during this time.
Hugs hon
Me

CanadaQuestion.. and some good news
QUOTE (Reba @ Nov 1 2008, 10:08 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
so she was taken from her litter at 6 weeks? that's waaaaaaaaaaay too young! 8 weeks should be the minimum.

you're going to have some behavioral problems with this one. If puppies are taken too young from their litter, they don't know how to socialize and play properly, plus even at 6 weeks they're not properly weened; more like just going cold turkey.

I seriously think there should be a law about how long to leave puppies with their dam. I think Illinois is the only state that has an 8 week law. Plus, they have a law against tail docking and ear cropping. It should be federal.



Reba is right Lori....
Hope everything works out with your sweet puppy!

CanadaWhen you tell people you are from Canada
I'm lucky because a lot of people here (and most of our friends here) have been to Canada so I don't get too many weird looks.

Other people though (Some of Nick's family members who have never travelled anywhere) ask me some pretty dumb things...I just laugh.

CanadaUS citizenship anyone?
You know...before I moved here I was all..."Okay, this is how it's going to go down, I move there, we get married, wait wait wait then apply for citizenship" but that seems so far away.
Nick and I have been talking so much about moving back to Canada so...who knows what our future will hold.

Most of me still plans on getting dual just so we don't have to go through this again in case we do move back to Canada and then when we are 60 and want to move back to the U.S. I can just come, ya know?

We'll see but right now, yeah, I'll probably go for dual.
