Got my new (used) camera yesterday. The exact same SonyCybershot model I've been using for years, so no learning curve. So far it is working fine. Hope to take a walk later today and really use it, especially the zoom part. What I like about that model it has a viewfinder and a 30x zoom. And I already have extra batteries and a charger. The price was a whole lot less then the new ones with the same features. When we bought the original one it was $349, this one used was twice that. It will be a great day for walking, in the low 70's no wind, perfect. Just have to get Bill moving. We did walk around the neighborhood a little yesterday. Want to use the camera and make sure everything works on it. 

Some of our Christmas decorations. Stained glass in the sewing room window. I have trunks full of decorations in the shed, but no desire to drag them out and put them up. 

Three of the pillows covers I made last year.

And another one for a smaller pillow.

More stained glass in the kitchen window. Makes me want to go out in the garage and make a couple of nice pieces I have the patterns for. 

More Sphere.  Different one, I imagine it is amazing when in motion. 

Christmas.

This is different. 

The five great grands have their new quilts. They loooove them according to their mom. Glad. After I sent them I made a window hanging with Christmas embroidery panels to hang on our sliding patio doors. Now I can't think of anything else to sew. That room looks strange with sewing machine in its cabinet, no threads on the floor and no material on the cutting table. 

Spent part of yesterday cleaning off my laptop that I use when we travel. Had hundreds of pictures on it and a bunch of old files - some from 2008 that I didn't even remember why they were there. Does anyone out there use "The Cloud?" If so how does that work? I started looking it up but just got more confused. I back up my PC to an external hard drive, but if anything goes horribly wrong I'd lose everything. 

Oh boy, I have one minute to finish my coffee. Can't have any more caffeine until after my Stress Test tomorrow at 9:00. Tomorrow morning no caffeine or food. UGH hate that. at least the test starts at 9 - not in the afternoon. 

Walked yesterday - mile and a half. More pictures another day. I'm home from stress test, it was a different kind, no tread mill.
