Weekend

Oh me oh my oh! What to do with a three day weekend when you are all alone? I thought about going to the beach but it is supposed to rain. No fun! So I think I will work on digitizing pictures from negatives -- certainly a good project to fill time and I will post on shutterfly. That way any of you can pick and choose which ones you like best. It is a slow process because I have to find the nuggets and can save only 12 at a time. But i will get them posted.

Had a good weekend last week with my favorite grandson in the world! Leo is talking a lot! He loves to repeat what we say -- so cute!! He was a little afraid of Penny at first but began to warm up to her. I am so glad to have Penny home -- not sure, but I think she was neglected. She had fleas and flea bites all over her. She also has a cowering attitude and seems nervous whenever I reach to pet her. I have been keeping her calm - won't let her stay in the yard alone to keep her from barking too much. She has started to get her prance back.

Sandy was supposed to come down to Charlotte, but she closed her car door and messed up her thumb and taking percoset so naturally cannot drive down here.

So now it is Monday and I have been digitizing pictures all weekend. I'm trying to decide where to house them as I'm sure these hundreds of photos are going to max my hard drive soon! I will post some here and link to wherever -- thinking shutterfly or picasa but not sure how much free space I can get! Some of the images are dusty and scratched -- wish I could figure out what software could remove all that. I have photoshop but really not savvy on how to use it. I have spent hours just getting them saved and there are lots left to digitize.

So here goes with my first one!
I am guessing around 1955 since Patti isn't in the picture.
