This 'n That

I've been posting once a week.
I've decided... to do shorter posts, but
several times a week.
~~~~~~~~
1. Playing with Photoshop.
I snapped pics of Fall trees/leaves today and used Photoshop
to add this Fall quote on the photo.
I really need to spend some serious time with Photoshop and
learn to utilize all that I'll be able to do with it.
2. Several 12 x 12 layouts.
I will be working on my girl's layouts for the rest of my life
as I only started a few years ago.
Lots and lots of years to catch up with.
~~~
This 'bald child' is actually ME! Look at the date!
Yup... that's how old I am.
I'll be 65 on November 9th... that is a
"Welcome to Medicare" year.
I DO NOT FEEL OR ACT THAT AGE!!!

This is Wendy, Allison (middle), and Kristin.
Sadly, there are so many pictures of Halloween that have been
lost or ruined through the years and I feel terrible about that.
So many creative costumes and fun times that will live only
in our memories.

This is Kristin dressed as a flapper.

Not seasonal... but, one of my favorites.


3. Asymmetrical Balance
I hadn't even noticed this pile until Boyd pointed it out...
and it is right on the floor next to my desk.
I think I have some reorganizing to do as
the holiday seasons approach.
It's amazing what one can get used to, live with,
and not even see after a while.

Make this a great weekend!

Love to you,
Joni

I am with Joni. I am scrapping for the now, thinking there will be time for reflective scrapping on the early years in time.

These are great and I look forward to taking this journey with you.

Have a lovely weekend.

I love your layouts. And, I swear there are at least three baskets in my house that are "asymmetrically balanced" like yours! :)

What a cool picture of the leaves with the quote... I don't have photo shop, but need to learn more on the program I do have.

I can't believe you are going to be 65....in November... You certainly don't look it. But I know what you mean, I'm 67 and don't feel or act near that!!!

Let's stay young together Joni!!!

Happy Birthday....coming up.

Photoshop is a blast, but there is so much to learn. I love your layouts, too. That mag pile is certainly something I can identify with!

Thanks for your visit and comment on my blog, it made my day. I did feel like I was on "House" or "St. Elsewhere", remember that show?
