What happens when you try to make the graphic bigger. I have tried increasing the graphic size in several different programs (word, printmaster, photoshop) and the graphic becomes real fuzzy looking.

That usually means that it's resolution is limited in the image that you're working with. Maybe try another image with higher resolution, or leave the smaller image small.

Use your right mouse button and click on an image. A dialog box will pop up, click on properties and you will see the image size shown in pixels. For instances the double scoop image Mary has in her siggie is 150 pixels by 148 pixels. That is small for the boards, I would suggest something at least four to ten times that as a decent image size. If not, then just leave it smaller.

Prayers and PD for you and your DD. Hope all works out the way you want it. I'll keep my fingers and toes crossed.

Thanks!

Some of y'all make me feel so bad. You obviously keep such nice and neat houses! I wish I had your dedication and cleaned during the week, insted of just straightening up. I am famous for moving every paper, book, whatever, from every other room and just dropping it in my office, which is already full of girl scout cookies! When I get home tonight I should take a pic to show you, but I don't want you thinking that bad of me!

Ummm ... I'm sure mine would look the same as yours. Our eat-in bar in the kitchen is always full of clutter. And the office is a mess too.

Karen (gptmba),

Are y'all doing any excursions? I thought that we could do the sub in Coz. but just noticed that the min. age is 5. I think there is another excursion that has no min. age but the reviews weren't good in my Passporter.

Hey, Jim and Irene, don't you guys SLEEP? I can see Jim at dinner tonight, nodding in his entree.

Today is our hectic day after school. Pick DD up, feed her, take her to the studio, don't forget the tap and pointe shoes. Oh, and the tutu to practice with for recital.

On Thursdays, we have to go to the Vietnamese cafe with the Boba Tea place next door. Anyone else have a kid that likes bobas? They are interesting, slushy drinks in different flavors with big tapioca pearls in them. I think they sell them now in the counter service place in China at Epcot. But I'm told those aren't as good.

Irene, where did you dive with the heavy current? Kevin & Alicia have a dive planned for Thursday before the cruise, off the coast near Boyton Beach (I think).

 

[CodyJ]

Poor Cody - strange, my friend's yellow lab just had the same symptons and diagnosis......womething int he water?

Irene, I am dating my age when I say...... does anyone remember a time when you took your dog to the vet to have them spayed/neutered, get some horrible flea powder, and rabies shots. When I was growing up - that was it. Now Cody goes in to have a heartworm check, shots for distemper, rabies, kennel cough, etc......, you have to take in a urine and fecal speciman, then I buy heartwarm meds and flea and tick. I also think he goes in and gets a shot for lyme's disease. Phew.................

But we all do it for love of the dog.

Hope everyone is having a good day.

Sue is working with me today so that means I won't be able to get a lick of work out of her.

This is what she looks like....

HELP I NEED A VACATION


STACEY CAN I COME WITH YOU ????????

Sure! Jump on a plane, we'll meet you there! You and Jay could have fun watching me play in the tournament and laughing at me.

Hang in there......

Saturday is Matt's 16th birthday and he gets to spend the morning in Titusville flying a helicopter. It's not skydiving, but at least I don't have to jump out of a plane.

In today's paper I found the next perfect event for Matt's birthday, and also a pre-cruise test. Saturday is the Pie Festival at Celebration and they have

· The Never-Ending Pie Buffet, featuring award winning pies, ice cream, toppings and beverages Featuring pies from Bakers Square, Bonert's Slice of Pie, Edwards, Harlan Bakeries, Kenny's Key Lime, Mrs. Smith's Bakeries, Sara Lee Bakery, Village Inn Restaurants and Wick's Pies

Matt and Lisa are already primed and ready to go. This is going to be Matt's birthday dinner. PIE! No birthday cake for us. Taking him to the Never-Ending Pie Buffet.

Doing this early since I'll be out of town:


HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MATT !!!

I'm glad you're not making your dad jump out of a plane.

Not basement...BEDROOM!

NOT! I'm not the world's worst, but my house is always full of clutter. If we have the kitchen table cleaned off, the dining room tabletop cannot be seen. If we have the dining room table cleaned, the kitchen table isn't usable. Can't seem to have them both cleared off at once, and it's not the same stuff, either. The advantage is that DH has to go into people's houses (and restaurants) for his job. He NEVER complains about my housekeeping after some of the things he's seen. He also tells me where he will and won't go out to eat.

I was thinking this same thing when I took Ash in last week. I think it's the same with people, too. The more science learns about diseases, the more diseases they check us for. The more they find, the more they try to prevent.

After a while, it makes you want to not go to the doctor anymore.

 

[justmestace]

Okay....I'm outta here.

Have fun hitting 37,000 without me!

Have fun!! Don't lose all your "mad money"!!

We are diving with Jupiter Dive Charters . the dives off West Palm and most of the gold coast are drift dives. Yes, there is current. But you drift with it carrying a surface buoy so the boat knows where you are. When the dive is done you surface and boat is right there ready to pick you up. VERY easy dives!! Even Scoopie thinks so......

 

[tinksdad]

Two in a row!! TOP!!

Watch out!

Sleep - yes, I remember that...It came when I had a life!!!!

Ddon't worry about the current - we dove off of Palm Beach, but this is the first time that it has been that strong. It was a combination of heavy winds many days before, the last cold front of the season, and other meterological stuff that I cannot recall......I really want to join Kevin and Alicia but since I am not yet on vacation on that day, I am not sure I can squeak in the time....

And you can now buy health insurance for your pet!!!! But that requires you know the age, and since all ours are strays
