He wants to start in working on projects at the shop, but the doctor asked him to give it at least another week. It looked like the doc would have liked him to wait even longer, but I think he knew if he told my husband to wait, he's one of those who would go ahead and do it sooner, anyway.
His middle and ring fingers are now the same length as his pinky finger...it will take some getting used to.
I like that. The law of averages are on our side.
I have a Nikon Point and Shoot I like but always think I want a DSLR but I am afraid I would just get tired of dragging it around.
That and after having a Nikon for 5 years I still cannot figure out the settings.
I have some wonderful pictures of a perfect fishing pole and a COMPLETELY out of focus whale in the background.
I have LOTS of pictures like that. I think the SLR will help with that somewhat.....but when you only have one chance at a whale rising up out of the water, that just might be when the classes will come in handy! 
And Tom, Andrew and JR... they're all certifiable. assuming we can get Lil'G to sign the committment docs!
We were chosen for one of the DCL House Parties!!
Anyone want to come????
Cheryl -- Samantha said that the guest room is for you and John!
We had better be in the new house by then!!!! That's the address I used!
We are kinda in the same area. Let me know when you get specifics. We might be interested. There are a decent number of us DFW'ers, could make it a housewarming/DIS Meet combo.
OK.. here's some good ol' fashioned "ketchup" fer my "long" lunch today...
I hope no one minds ... I had to bring these images back ONE MORE TIME cuz they're so happy! What a wonderful bunch of kids ya have here Steph! And they're nice pictures too capturing the creative energy of the moment!
Hey Roger.... YOU Landlubbing WHIMP! Errr.... or wuz that "land-lubbing CHIMP?"..... at any rate.... Lets get that figure up ta 10 Swabbie! < yuk Yuk yuk! > Seriously, congrats on yer 8th prize! It's no mean feat to sieze the prize with soooo many serious wenches sprinting with ya!
Roger, that's pretty good for an available light photo in what I believe are dim lighting conditions. Plus... Your little one looks like shes' giving "her all" in belting out her tunes! How beautiful!
Cheers to whom-ever is Paula's Secret benefactor!
Oh Boy! I actually get to reply on 7 questions which were not originated by ME! Thanks Andrew!
1) Favorite SMILIES.... well... I'd have to say something that moves and pokes a little fun too... lke the Albert Einstein images with tounge sticking out
2) Well - in recent memory I'd say it would have to be the one that got me censured by the DIS police... yanno... the Union Jack designed candy bikini briefs
3) My favorite question(s) were ones with a Monty Pyton like origin - like "what is your favorite color? BLUE... er, no RED.... oh Nooooo! ArrrrgH! To understand this you're gonna have to rent the movie if ya havn't seen this before.
4) Ooo... the 1st kiss. I don't actually recall THAT as it's sort of a vague and distant memory. There wuz a lot goin' on when that 1st kiss happened. I CAN say that I have only kissed my spouse - as she was the ONLY young lady whom I ever kissed, dated or held hand with.
5) Those treasure chests they had on the ships a few years ago filled with plastic gems... well... we bought a couple in our early DCL cruises - but in recent years we resisted and ... well... one of the kids slipped a few gems she found on the floor into my pockets. I found them later in the evening and did not bother returning them. I know - technically it's petty penny ante theft - but if I did not do the deed then I believe technically I'm still .... INNOCENT! Now-a-days I do NOT allow the kids to slip out of a store with anything and I've obviously admonished them about taking things found in a store. We take NOTHING... except money (coins usually) found on the floor. Once, Julianna found a $20 bill in a swimming pool at a hotel. No one else was there so we did keep that one.
6) Nothing ... unless you're gonna count that Bently Azure I picked up in Grand Cayman a couple of weeks ago. So HEY!, I got it fer chump change - stuff like dat doesn't have to be mentioned.... does it?
7) Ahem... currently I am free of pending litigation. I remain SCOTT FREE and INNOCENT! Well... at least free of pending litigation which I'd be contesting that is. I just got a ticket for running a red lite which I'll not be contesting.
OK... enuf with trying to catch up a bit here. I gotta go now.... cheers til later this evening! ... maybe I'll be back to lurk while I continue to read backwards...

You sew costumes, and make gingerbread houses.
This is the camera that I recently got. I love it!! It's taking a little time for me to figure out all the settings when I try to be a bit more manual, but I got some pretty good pictures on our recent trip to WDW.
Just post all the pictures under my photobucket account.
Well...
.... may I offer to roll out the RED CARPET in welcoming you to our pleasant little madness here! < wink > actually we're not all engaged in maddening diversions... well... at least Andy is a straight shooter but I don't know about Cheryl and I. And Tom, Andrew and JR... they're all certifiable. assuming we can get Lil'G to sign the committment docs!
So...
See below!!! 
I know, funny isn't it???
I think I can put up with seeing snakes if it means I don't have to shovel or deal with the sn*w and ice anymore!!!!!!!
I was bringing the dog in from her walk at the time and that was the only way in. I figured since it was busy with the frog we could make a mad dash in the house. By the way that was the last time we saw it.Happy Be-lated Birthday Rich

Wow Tracy!!!! You could be my photographer for the EBPC.
I'll figure it out soon. I took about 200 pictures at Illuminations (which if 10% are good, I'll be surprised) and about the same at MVMCP where many more are good. I'm learning 
He had a follow up with the surgeon yesterday and he's doing really well. They are still swollen from the trauma, and that will take a while to go down. He was told to start soaking them in warm soapy water, to get the stitches to start melting. The doc says the incisions are closed nicely and he'd like to see the stitches melt, rather than have to remove them. There are at least 15 teeny, tiny stitches on the ends of each finger.
He was told to start to "exercise" them....wiggling, making a fist, etc....what little there is to do with them.
He wants to start in working on projects at the shop, but the doctor asked him to give it at least another week. It looked like the doc would have liked him to wait even longer, but I think he knew if he told my husband to wait, he's one of those who would go ahead and do it sooner, anyway.

I was tempted to sign up but never did!!! Tell Samantha, John and I would love to visit but we might be stuck at your house for days. We might not want to come back to the land of ice and snow. I was our group's official photographer for the Med cruise. Our friends' camera stopped working in Rome so everyone was saying "Tracy, get a picture of this!" "Tracy, get a picture of that!". You wouldn't believe how many pictures I have of the train in Villefranche
Actually, the thing I really like about the Nikon is the speed that it takes pictures at. Once I get it all figured out, it'll be great but some of the pictures I have of the fireworks were in such rapid succession that it makes you feel like you are there watching the fireworks all over again! Now if they were just a little clearer
