Remember Me?
Dear Blog,
I know you think I’ve deserted you. However, quite the contrary… I had to manually update you to the latest version of WordPress, since the “automatic” feature is yet to work. Also, although it’s a little premature you have a cute new look for the holidays – complete with falling snow. (You’re welcome!)
Please don’t feel neglected. I’ve also been ignoring my Digital SLR camera. Don’t ask me why – it’s just the way that things have been going lately. I’m trying to balance my personal and work life so I’ll be a more “rounded” individual. However, there don’t seem to be enough hours in the day to do everything.
I did buy a new digital camera for hiking, etc… Please don’t tell Canon that I researched and purchased a Panasonic Lumix ZS3. It’s so much easier to carry around than a full range of camera equipment that included the camera, lenses, and a tripod. It was either that or seriously consider buying a pack mule. However, I think my neighbors would have issues with a mule in my backyard.
Also, I’ve had a nasty little allergy attack with my reactive airway. I’m much better but I’m not looking forward to the 35 m.p.h. winds this afternoon that will blow up all kinds of crap, stuff, allergens.
Since I’m confessing, I’ve also become somewhat interested in, addicted to playing Scrabble on Facebook. It’s very relaxing…
Speaking of relaxing, I’m looking forward to the upcoming Thanksgiving break, and also the Christmas holidays. I’m not sure if I’m going to drive to Borrego Springs for Thanksgiving. It’s two days driving to, two days there, and two days driving back. Somehow it doesn’t seem worth the effort. My friend Debbie and I are cruising the Carnival Splendor for a week beginning on December 20th, and then I’ll spend New Year’s in Yuma.
Time passes so quickly…Â I promise to try and be more “attentive.”
Love and kisses, DDÂ ![]()

My blog was neglected for a while too, and Facebook. I’m back to both now though. For what it’s worth! So far I’ve managed to avoid neglecting my cameras for more than a few days.
You’ll like that Panasonic I think, I’ve been looking at them too. I want a compact camera I can carry around with me without having to resort to the full-up camera bag (two bodies, three lenses and a large flash get a bit bulky!)
thanks for catching us up….missed reading what you are up to….how is Cali?….sounds like you are really busy…..snow looks great…..cruising to where?
Glad to have you back. Even though I enjoy FB, it doesn’t give me the same outlet for writing and sharing. I’d much rather read friends’ blogs than little one-liners on FB.
Love the snow!
Yeah, for updates! Good to hear your cruising along. Nice new cam you got there. Yes, time does pass by too quickly and hard to believe the holidays are here…wasn’t it just yesterday we were in Santa Fe eating green chile burgers?
