If you know me, you know I research every new electronic product I buy. I drive myself nuts, and its not a reputation I'm proud of. My nephew did all the research for the last camera I bought, and it was the best. I've decided to stay with a Canon, for many reasons. They're great cameras, and the fact that Emily has one means duplicate chargers and cables. One set kept upstairs and the other down. I'm pretty sure I've decided on the SD880. It's release date is tomorrow. I have to wait for my gift card to come in the mail, but Emily is letting me use her camera while I wait to buy mine.

Yesterday was another nasty weather day for a game. Cool and rainy. The field was soaked from a downpour right before the start. The girls were sliding and falling and flipping in the air. A star player on the opposing team took 6 of our girls out with injuries. The refs gave her one warning towards the end of the game and only pulled her out in the last 5 minutes. We were so mad they let her stay in so long with no penalties. The opponents played a much better game than us, but only won 1-0. Today is an away game, with a neighboring high school. They're good. I hope our girls are better.

I'm ready to get ready for the pool. I haven't been there in a week and I know I'm gonna be hurting. Things just got in the way so I'll pay the price. I've kept up with my walking.

I plan to go to Duron and buy paint to put a second coat on my foyer and paint the adjoining powder room. Like I said before, I don't love the color, but Emily does, and anything is better than what it was. I'll run just a few errands while I'm out. That's the plan so far.

Nice picture!!! Too bad we didn't live a bit closer - we could walk together!

That other player sounds like a thug. I would have been angry too.

Have fun at the pool. And I LOVE that hat with the dog on it.

I'll be interested to hear how you like the SD880 - I wish I'd done more research before I bought mine - I feel like I've already outgrown it.

Hope your not too sore!

You look so cute in your hat! I liked the green on your walls too - it looks really nice in the photos.

Hey - I got my no poo at the salon in Seattle! I'm probably not saving any money on shipping by the time I drive up there, but I liked the salon a lot too, so I might get my hair cut there next time.

have a great day!

You're so cute! I love your motivation. I long for the day I can buy a Canon. I've always wanted to get into photography, but I've never had the kind of money to spend on a camera to make it worth it.

It's all the prep work before painting that get me, too. Tape. Tape. Tape.

Then....dust, wipe, dust, wipe....

How does my wall trim get so dusty?

Happy painting.
