Daily Lookie!

I am going to attempt to share one thing i find interesting or inspiring everyday. Well at least tue-sat as those are the days I work and lately the least busy time of day for me. Today's lookie is from Flicker.com. This picture was taken by Pear Biter. He has some great and inspiring pictures. It makes me want to stop my current painting and paint something of his. This one specifically looks straight out of a story book. And for those of you who know me at all that always speaks to me. I love castles, fantasy and magic. Check out his shots here.

Thwack.....ouch. The sound of my head hitting the desk

For those that don't know I am a Travel agent in a Call Center. I also take membership and road side assistance calls. However we are so slow lately. Travel is almost non-existent, people have even slowed calling for free Tour books and maps. I am sitting here now waiting for the clock to tick and falling asleep from lack of ringing. Maybe I should take up knitting, or cross-stitch if this is going to keep up. I can't wait till the "crisis" is over and people in general stop being afraid to leave their town. Gas prices are dropping but people are still not going anywhere. well people continue to break down so I will still have a job. Unfortunately Verizon is starting to talk about layoffs AGAIN!! They just moved his old group to this one less than 6 months ago and they are talking about layoffs again. I keep reminding myself its in Gods hands, God's will be done. I think I need to go pray some more. I not worried so much as angry at Verizon. oh well I need to learn to let go, Until next time.

Holy Scanners Batman!

I have finally broken down and bought a scanner that can scan negatives and slides. I have got to say the Epson Perfection v500 is awesome! I can finally convert the trunks full of slides, and family photos. Hopefully by Christmas I will have all the photos on CD and DVD so other family members can have photos also. Besides it is safer than pictures and negatives sitting in a box under the bed. I have even found a little box of slides that recorded my fathers Junior High graduation. We sure have come a long way with image capturing. I sit here in awe of the difference between the slides my grandfather took and the 10.8 Mega pixel pictures I take.
