A lot of "stuff" mentions in my last message. Gotta proof-read better.

Alice, I have a little pen and water-color cartoon that was in my Dad's house. He collected erotic art and it's a lovely little piece with a few lines. I'd scan it except I don't think photobucket would allow it. I wonder if I could put it in my picasa photos? See if this stays put: La Novia Del Pirata. In a few lines, it tells an entire story, doesn't it? (A rather saucy story, mind you, but a story none-the-less!)

Meanwhile, in the other end of the house, the guys seem to be enjoying themselves and are going back and forth between playing a game, working on the computer, and downloading songs that the visiting friend doesn't have in his mp3 player. I hope when they get together over the holidays that they have a lot to share and don't find themselves drifting apart. I can't say that I had many close friends in high school, so there wasn't a real test of friendships. I did end up going to college with a few of them, though, and we got to know each other much better there.

Back to Photoshop. Even just using keystrokes instead of the mouse, it's slow going, depending on the lighting in each room we took the photos in.

Oh - in the declutter category, I swept and mopped the kitchen (I had to trim the new mop sponge so it would fit the old holder - isn't that always the case? They don't keep getting the same sizes and if you're not resourceful you end up buying a new handle). The fridge is looking clearer, and I'll put a couple of cans at the curb tonight for tomorrow's trash pickup. I also have to deliver a big bag of recyclables.
