Photoshop Elements

I just downloaded a trial version of Photoshop Elements, which is a scaled down version of Photoshop. I like it, except I think right now there is probably a learning curve. Here's a painted version of a Stephen picture.

Bath time cutie

I know its a phase, but...

This is a phase, but it sucks. Stephen wakes up from his naps, which average about 30 minutes or just long enough for me to take a shower and perhaps not long enough for me to put on clothes, and for 45 minutes to an hour after wants to be in my arms and fussy. He's in this extremely clingy phase where I can't go to the bathroom without him pulling up on me. It is not sufficient to be next to him, but wants to be up in your arms. Even in your arms, he's still fussy because I don't let him play with the phone. It really quite drains both Sean and I. When Sean gets home, he can't even go to our room and change clothes without Stephen crawling towards/all over him.

Listening to

Free to Be You and Me...someone reminded me of the song, Parents are People, and I downloaded the whole album from Itunes. Such a fun flashback.

Cool Imaging

Although I got my x-rays in digital format, they are in some proprietary format that I can't send to some doctor friends of mine who want to see them, so I was experimenting with trying to scan in the x-rays or photograph them. I put one x-ray in front of the window with white paper behind it. I still got a relection of me in the photo, but I think it turned out like a cool photograph. I'm going to go to Kinkos since people on the web said that it is like trying to scan in slides, which Kinkos should be able to do.

In Preparation for the Olympics

I found the excerpts from the light show that we saw in China. It was just amazing and perhaps (hopefully) will be a preview of the Opening Ceremonies. I'm making Chinese food tomorrow night to celebrate the Ceremonies...
