Thanks Ms. Taminator! I have a Sony CyberShot but I still need to learn how to take pictures in low light for HHN.

Sony makes some really nice cameras! I was torn between a Sony and a Canon SE something or other. I went with the Canon because it had a faster response on action shots. With crazy kids and active dogs, that was a must. Do you have a night time portrait setting on your Sony, or is it a super high end expert thing you have to manually set? I've only used my night scene and night portrait settings a few times. It seems to do a lot better with things like moon shots than people shots at night. If I have an object besides the scenery, you can see the object really well, but nothing much in the background. My camera can be set manually, but I don't know enough about photography and cameras to do that stuff yet. I really want to go to HHN in 2009, so I need to get the kinks figured out, too. Have you taken classes and read books, or are you just a natural I should envy and kill?

Ahh thanks for the love! I saw I was missed. Sorry I missed the party. Congrats on your tag!

And you are still Macadamia to me!

Glad you saw you were missed and are loved.
Thanks, and thanks! I'm pretty fond of the name Macadamia, too.

I'm a guy and most guys don't like to read the instructions.

I've looked at the book and tried changing the settings but still can't get the hang it...which is why I don't have many HHN pictures.

As far as the daytime shots go, I just point and shoot. Then...I use JASC Paint Shop Pro to crop, lighten and sharpen the pictures before posting.

bwaaaaahaaaaaa haaaaa - loves ya janet!!!!

i want it so bad i can taste it, budget just stretched to the max...admit to checking on the upgrade $70 a night...think i'll just try the $20 bill trick @ checkin if i get the nerve...although i've got 1-1/2 months, never know if a deal will pop up.

never though of it...does this room have a shower too? Might be a little awkward w/jr in the room...guess we could wear bathingsuits

Hey guys just wanted to post and let you all know I am back online for now. I have to go all the way back to page 71 to ketchup so I won't be doing that tonight. I will try to do some tomorrow though.

Sorry if I worried you guys. I'm sure mac let you know what was going on after she called me. See you all tomorrow.

u kidding, i hired phillip marlowe to track u down...

for you youngins - a PI, private investigator popular in the 40's/50's

No doubt but in this case, the 'good stuff' isn't the color, it's the cake. Tastes just as good without the color, so I generally just leave it out.
I would gladly make a red, red, red one just for you though!

wonder if your teeth/tongue would turn red?

glad it tastes like chocolate, was waiting for the old: "..it tastes like chicken..." what everything gross/exotic tastes like it seems

Greetings from lurkdom....just a note to say that Bonny and Lee are alive, well and enjoying the best of both worlds...It was great to see them last night. Hope all of you are doing well....see some of you at HHN....

greetings, live long & prosper , glad they're having fun!

I went to a huge Mother's Day sale at a department store and found myself picking things just because they'd be cute and comfy enough for vacation. Not that they wouldn't be great for everyday life in hot muggy Mississippi, but it's the FL vacation that was guiding the decision process. Do any of the rest of you do that? I even picked up two new toiletry bags last night that looked like they'd be perfect for holding medical supplies on trips. I swear I'm starting to live based on the next adventure somewhere, and our next trip (to Gettysburg, PA) isn't until September. Do the rest of you do this, or do I just need to get out of the house more? Both?



I know it's early, but

Happy, snappy Mother's Day to all of you moms and grandmas out there!!!!!!!!!!!!! Especially Mac, the Mom of this fun thread.

Must run now. Off to get quotes on forts/swingsets for the boys.


Tamie

u kidding, i live in tshirts & shorts, most with a disney reference on them , much to my DSs lament

i have lots of the cutsie toiletrie bags (with disney charactars on them lol); don't use much anymore...just plop everything in gallon zip bags & then into shoebox sized tupperwareish containers with swinging, locking lids. note to self, post gettysburg pics soon!

I love my new camera......so I'm sharing a pic I took. It's me and my mom

nice pic, have fun with it...your mom is a knockout...looks like she's in her late 20's.

Great picture, and I like your new look!

Nighty-night, Todd. Sleep well. Zzzzzzzzz....

You know, that's what I wear every day, too. I've been trying to expand my wardrobe a little bit, but I never get my clothes hung up soon enough after drying them to avoid major wrinkles. I don't have time to iron, so I always end up in t-shirts and sweats or jeans. At least now I have a bunch of Universal and HRH t-shirts in the collection!

if you're not a mom, you do have a mom........

Some of the women I've met with the best mothering instincts had no children of their own. So Happy Mother's Day to everyone with the heart of a mother who uses her instincts to mother those around her. Love the flowers!

[bubba's mom]

Andy...tell your Mom she looks fab for her age..... what's her secret?


Tam.... i take our clothes out of the dryer right away...no wrinkles ...I am NOT

Todd & DM....did you find out what happened to your stimulus check?? Is it because you paid your preparer fee from your refund? It would have been nice if someone had thought about that BEFORE all these people were counting on that money being in their account

I went to the bank today, and while there, had them check to see if ours was deposited. It was on the 9th of May. (then again, we don't pay to have our taxes done! )

On a happy note, I'm an idiot and have 'found' money....sort of. I was balancing our checkbook today and realized I never entered a $100 deposit in our register AND (more importantly) one of DH's paychecks So, being stupid paid off....this time...

my mother said thanks. now i don't have to get her anything for mother's day. lol j/k

That would be it.

The IRS: Making things complicated for people since 1797.

double dip means you stop at CC twice during your cruise...not just once

That would be it.

Guess they didn't think about the '3rd party' bank.... but, still shouldn't make a difference imho.... Look on the bright side....better late than not at all

oic. and I agree with you Brab. it also has to do with how close to April 15th you sent your's in. There are prolly a lot of people who did do direct deposit but filed like right on the 15th expecting their's not knowing since the filed so close to the due date it might take an extra 2 weeks to process. Read up about that on the IRS website, since I'll prolly have a lot of people coming in to cash their checks at my store.
