Something old, something new?

I started tweeting as of last night. Not sure about it, but I only have two posts. Anybody know how to get rid of a follower on twitter?

Boring Blogger

I'm such a boring blogger! No wonder I don't have more than two followers. No pictures to post. Nothing to say. Well, perhaps an update.

Results Night was last Wednesday. I didn't do that well. I chose a photo from 2 years ago (taken while I was doing my course). It was a photo that I liked but it wasn't striking enough to hold anyone's attention. I actually knew I wasn't going to do well but entered for the sake of entering. The judges comments are always good to hear. And without the critique you don't know how to improve.

On Friday night I went to a midnight crop for the first time in a long time. I'm usually the one agonizing over my layouts but I was able to put together some fairly simple layouts. Almost 4 were completed with just the titles to add. Not bad! I'm looking forward to going again this Friday night. Sarah, if you see this, I miss you!!

On Saturday we went to the big Woodstock Craft Show & Sale. The plan was to start Christmas shopping. I guess technically we did. Avery is getting a bath mitt, a Barbie tent and a hat. She also got a Barbie bathing suit and two outfits for her 'real' baby. Later in the day we went to friends' for supper before the Santa Claus Parade and then back to their house for some munchies and socializing. Just as I was going to round up my family to leave, the ladies started talking about family photos and Christmas cards. My friend, Katrina (the hostess), got on her laptop and proceeded to show the ladies their family pics that I took. I got the warm fuzzies--everyone loved them. And Katrina used about 5 for her photo Christmas card!

And, last but not least, my daughter got a booster seat and is quite proud of it too! She's only 3 1/2 and over 40" tall. She was in a 3-in-1 but they're just so big and bulky.

Well, that's it. My boring life in a nutshell. OH...I forgot one thing. I bought myself a guitar Christmas songbook. Can't be distracted. Must continue practising for my weekly lessons. Yeah, right!

Camera Club on Wednesday

My daughter went with me to the last Club meeting. This week is Results Night for Contest #1. I need a babysitter--usual one is on surgical leave! Freaky child won't go to someone's house. Something to do with a fear of me leaving her there? (She's 3, what can I say?)
