Planet S magazine is looking for the Best of Saskatoon ...and other stuff.

I know, I have been MIA...but with work at two jobs, workouts in the wee hours of the morning and working bees of cutting and gluing wedding invitations...well there has been little time at the keyboard; except for those wedding invitations and photo editing and all that stuff.
But it is Friday - YAHOO!! And I have an hour or so here. I also have a few piles of dirty laundry...especially that gym gear!

But on to the important things...

My birthday is on Monday - I will be 52 and proud of it!! Dear husband is wracking his brain about what to get me and I, being practical as I am, have my eye on a gorgeous diamond ring!! But as a backup I am asking for a new computer monitor so I can see all my work so much better as I figure out Adobe Photoshop Lightroom.
I'll let you know the verdict on Tuesday. We are going to Truffles for supper Monday night!!

If you have any expertise in the area of monitors for photo editing, please leave me a comment with any suggestions, warnings or otherwise helpful ideas. And the budget is less than the diamond ring.

Speaking of Lightroom - I lied. I have been doing more than just typing wedding invitations. I have spent some time clicking my way around Lightroom 2 and many tutorials. This program is looking pretty slick!!

Now I am back to thinking about that Olympus E-3 again...or the E-30????

Boy, just how much stuff can you pack into one week. I feel like I need another holiday especially with the weather this week!! But it was good to see the temps inch their ways to the melting point today.

Have a wonderful weekend everyone. Get out and enjoy this balmy weather!

Well, Happy Birthday Julie. I'd hold out for the new screen - you'll get more use out of it. But you know, diamonds - hmmm.

My birthday was yesterday. Pisces we be!
