Collage



Put together this collage to send to Dustin (which is why he's not in it,lol).....I like Picasa, but I sure miss the photo editing program I had on the old computer, which was an extra that came with a camera my oldest son had purchased  in probably 2004? or 2005?......I could make those online cards with it, and also play around with 'layering' pictures,etc......maybe I haven't done enough research yet? but I don't seem to have found a comparable program (and of course, it would have to be 'freeware',lol....that's just how I roll!:)

The Pool Episode :) another 'dorky' adventure


This is our pool.....looks harmless,doesn't it? and yet, Sunday at our cookout, I believe the pool tried to kill me,LOL.

perhaps my first mistake was saying 'yes,let's!' when someone said 'let's make a whirlpool.'.....so, there I was along with my son, daughter, and my husband's nephew, and we're all walking around the pool in a circle as fast as we can, to get the whirlpool started.....

then we all grabbed floats, so we could float around in the whirlpool, I think most of y'all have probably done this (although possibly not when you're almost 50,lol)

we're floating around the pool in our 'whirlpool', and I'm floating behind my daughter as we head around toward the side of the pool that is next to the fence....as she's heading around, she thinks she's about to hit the fence, so she sticks her legs out to keep from smashing into the fence.

I,of course, slam right into the back of her, and the next thing I know, I'm falling over the side of the pool along with gallons of water, and Blam! hit the ground.

at this point, I am laughing so hard that I can hardly breathe, let alone speak......so when everyone starts calling out 'are you all right?" because I'm on the side of the pool where they can't see me, I am choking so hard with laughter that it takes me several minutes to gasp out 'I'm fine, I'm fine, I just can't stop laughing!"

my husband had been filming with the camera before the pool episode occurred, and sadly, had just turned the camera off , or otherwise, I'm pretty sure we'd have had a shot at the prize money on America's Funniest Home videos :)

and how was Your weekend? :)
