I keep meaning to download the photos on the camera, so I can have a record of the "before" and "after" house. There are some great pictures of before we hired a team of testosterone laden men to come cut down and haul away a dump truck load of trees, and the house that was hiding behind those trees. Then there is the before and after the new paint pictures.
The camera I'm using isn't mine (mine needs to go to the camera doctor) and my husband had a nice one sitting around that he wasn't using so he gave it to me. But I just found that none of the seven or eight camera cables I can find work on this camera.
Will the pictures I took be trapped forever in the confines of the camera? Will I be required to buy a whole new cable for this camera, because EVERY OTHER NORMAL USB CABLE DOESN"T WORK? Perhaps. But not tonight.

We moved in HOW long ago?
There are simply not enough hours in the day.
Hubby and I have been discussing what are the "top 10 things to do" around the house. He thinks if it's not in the top 10, why am I doing it? I think if it's going to take me 10 minutes or so, and it's bugging me, I'm going to do it no matter how far down the list it is.
He is right, the boxes that persist in the front room, bedrooms, and hallways are totally annoying. It looks like we moved in last weekend. Cleaning them out or moving them to the basement is in the top 10, I agree. All the pictures that we somehow managed to find wall space for in the old, small house, are now leaning against each other in piles around the floor. We have a lot more windows in this house, less wall space, and therefore hanging pictures has become a challenge. So there they sit.
But the rug that I put under the living room furniture but immediately decided I didn't like there but left for a while, that's probably in the low 40s, but it bugged me so I took 10 minutes or less to move the furniture off it, roll it up and move it downstairs.
Blogging? Certainly not in the top 10. But here I am.
