We have SUNSHINE!

Or at least we did today. It was the first time in days and days since we have seen the sun. It has rained here for so long I can't remember the last sunny day.

We spent the week working and watching it rain. The rain effected our sleep due to late night storm warnings and Poogie didn't get to swim at the Y Thursday because it was storming. Her class got to do tumbling in the gym so she was happy anyway.

We didn't get as much done as I would have liked in science and social studies but we will catch up this week, I hope.

I did get some time to myself Friday, even in the pouring down rain. I had a doctors appointment so I left a few hours early to just enjoy myself. I may have enjoyed myself too much. I ended up buying myself a new digital camera. I have been debating the last few weeks on getting a new one. The one I have still works but the quality of the pictures have not been very good as of late. I really thought I wanted a new DSLR but after a lot of thought I decided to just get a good digital. I already have a great Nikon SLR my hubby got me a few years ago and I never want to part with it. Since my hubby bought it for me it means a lot to me and it takes beautiful photos, but it is too big to take everywhere. Plus I am not so good about getting film developed and I develop most of my digital stuff at home.

So I decided to get a Sony Cybershot H7. I am very happy with my purchase. I now have 2 times the mega pixels and 5X more zoom than my last camera. I love my hubby's Cybershot he uses for work but it doesn't have much zoom. The software that comes with the Sonys are great too. So now we both have a great camera.

We also went to see Nim's Island last night. I went for the obvious reason (Gerard Butler is in it), the kids wanted to see the animals. It was a delightful movie, even my hubby liked it. Jodi Foster was hilarious. If you get a chance do see it.

Finally as of last Monday I had lost 4 pounds on my diet. I am hoping for more this Monday when I weight in. I don't think I have lost as much this week because I didn't work our hardly any. I need to get on the ball this week and just do. Yet, that is easier said than done when it comes to finding time. I guess I will see Monday.
