Technology Update

More good news.  I have a new cell phone--with vibrate and a color screen.  We're moving on up to the east side as George Jefferson would say.  I have reason to believe it even has a camera but I wouldn't know how to work that feature yet.  I only thought it had one because it has a little eye on the back and I don't think they would stick that on there just to watch me.

The photos of the kids have not been reduced for posting yet although we (and by "we" I mean Corbin under my direction and hounding) logged an enormous amount of time with our friend Photoshop last week.  Our Swiss Days vendor application was due and I must say it was a beast.  The application itself should be enough to make people not participate.  But alas, we finally got 'er done in the 11th hour on Saturday and just made the postmark deadline.  I met an interesting lady in line behind me at the post office who was intruiged by our quiet books and just happened to the the educational director for Barnes & Noble.  I may look her up in the future. 

Spencer has been sick since Saturday with no reprieve.  I feel for him.  We had a special day of togetherness yesterday because I took the day off and pretty much just held him while the other two characters spent the day with G-ma Sly.  Illness has been a time consuming process along with getting books ready for our Oh Sweet Sadie Valentine's show that starts tomorrow.  We had 7 internet book sales this week which I realize is not Mattel standards by any means but quite exciting for me in the dead of winter.  If we keep on it, this kite may fly.

Sounds like you've been busy. We got a new camera and blogger has said that to us too. Not sure how to fix it, but will keep a tryin'.

Hmm, seems to be a common problem these pixels. I don't know if I completely understand but I may have short circuted it. Probably not a good thing. Sigh, I, as well, once used to know all the neat new gadgets.
