Trying new things stretching the mind and patience.

I love the blog world! I love meeting people and only wished they lived closer.   I love exploring people's blogs.  It is almost like peeking in their windows, now STOP being gross, I meant that in a good way.

Ok let's put it this way, it like going over to a new friends home and visiting.  That sounds better.

I have met a new blogger named Colleen and here is her blog here.. 



I ran into her blog from being somewhere else and I fell head over heels with the Halloween blocks she designed.  I have to tell ya what she does is pretty amazing. 

It is digitally manipulating pictures and the great product really got my attention.

So, I contacted her and asked her to help me.  Wow!  Was she wonderful!  The information was spot on, however, it is not the teacher's fault it is the students.  I couldn't grasp the soft ware called Gimp, which is free to download and use.  I have another software called paint.net which is also free to download and use. 

That is why I haven't been blogging this past week except for the past 24 hours.  It has consumed me totally.  I walked out of my office yesterday when Andy got home and when he saw me his eyes were huge and only said "Oh my".  Stop it, just because I haven't showered, still in sweats and a t-shirt, and had HIS  shoes on because I did tear myself away just enough to check on the chickens.  Don't we all deserve a day to look like that?  (I think I frightened him).

Getting back to my story.

Anyway, I haven't been able to accomplish anything with this yet and I have learned that I am learning everything of what NOT to do with this program.

Colleen, I love you and are thankful in my life, now if only I have have you do my projects.....hum....

See, I am still working on Halloween!  Get over it, Christmas is here!

If anyone is familiar with either one of these programs, please share, I think once I get it, it will be incredible!

Have a great Sunday!
