Soothing lavender to calm the crazy lady.  Ok...I'll fess up...this was one of the easiest tags I ever made, and everybody seems to love it.  Actually, Shelly, Roxymama, should get half the credit.  She made the moon window background and sent it to the PSP group.  All I did was slap the lavender tube on it with some sparkles and voila....a tag.

Things are pretty quiet...shhhh...don't say anything.

We went to the 16th floor to see our new office space.  I don't think Rose and I are going to get our own offices.  Not that the boss doesn't want us to but it seems to be creating a commotion among other divisions, I believe.  But it looks like a huge, beautiful floor.  Way more space than I ever worked in.  LOL...I think we're going to be lost.  I mean, cmon, we work for the govt. and are used to be stacked up on top of each other.  Where Rose and I end up, it's hard to tell but anywhere on that floor is really pretty.  The move isn't until the middle of October.

 

  LOL...Chelle, the Bag Lady, made this for me.  HUGS, Chelle!  Only problem is today I have nothing to whine about...imagine that.  But I had to post my new Whine Zone tag which will signal a rant, rave or serious whining is about to begin.

Ok...I'll whine because I want a new camera.  Darned if I know what I want.  I've gotten so many suggestions.  I hate those circles that show up on my pictures.  Last night I was supposed to be online scouting out lawnmowers...yeah right.  I was online scouting out digital cameras.  Becky made some suggestions.  Being the artist and photographer she is, none were under $300 and probably way beyond my technological ability, which is sorely lacking.  I need something super easy to use.

I'll pawn my old one off on Megan.  I know she wants one; just not mine.  But oh well...see I have no sense.  I need a lawnmower and so many other things but I want a camera.  My BF, anal person he is, lost the receipt for my camera I have now.  I can't believe it.  He is so organized.  He sees how some of my pictures come out so he looked for the receipt and swears I have it.  No way...he keeps all my receipts.  If he could just find the darned thing, I could take it back to Wally World.  It has a one year complete warranty on it and can be exchanged there.  I think he threw it away when he moved in the spring along with my vacuum receipt. 

That's my whine for tonight.  One more day and a long weekend.  Joey isn't leaving for camping until Monday and is going for the whole week.  I might end up cooking on Sunday or maybe not. 

Good night everyone.  Off I go to  1. look for my keys so I'm not scrambling around tomorrow morning;  2. get my clothes together; and 3. bath or shower?  I think I'll slip into my Calgon mode again.

  Mocha, Megan's kitty, says Good night.  She's on Megan/my vanity.  I think she really resembles Jeannette's Nina.

I just bought a new Olympus at circuit city. It's an awesome little camera and SO super simple to use. It has auto or regular focus...can get super close.  I just love. My son has a canon which is also really good.  I think mine is SP-320 model. Can't tell you the price I paid, I think it was around  2oo. not sure.LOL Memory like a sieve.  Love the whine zone graphic.  Have a great Friday.
Hugs, Barb

Okay, Chris, now.. you know that since I started the Whine Zone, you are going to have to share that tag with me!  Right???  Right??  Or make me one that is as cool as yours! hee  I have no idea how to do PSP or whatever that stuff is you all do to make tags.  So.. can I snag it and use it when I whine??? hee  I won't use it unless you say it's okay.. :)

Hope you have a great day.. and that you enjoyed your Calgon bath!

Jim got me a good one from Best Buy a few years back; simple to use. Not sure how much it cost though since it was  a gift.

(I always have to put my keys in the same place when I come home or I forget where they are; terrible to get old and lose my memory :)

enjoy the weekend ahead

may i snag that whine zone tag?

I am dumber than shit so this Kodak Easyshare C330 is just right. $129.

I would love a nicer one but i am a poor bitch too.
Does your bf have the box it came in? Call WM and talk real nice to the Photo Dept if you can put it back in the box, maybe they will take it back without the receipt.
LOVE YOU,
lisa

I love that lavendar tag. How beautiful! Walmart is pretty good about taking back items. I would at least try for a store credit since you don`t have the receipt.
LoL, cute whine zone sign!
Love ya,
