Mike also got a bonus from work this week so we went out last night, and got him a laptop on sale at Best Buy for $449. He's been jonesing for a laptop for about 3 yrs now, and the one I got him 2 yrs ago ended up being a joke. Now he's making noises about "borrowing" my camera. So I'm thinking I may spend part of the tax return to upgrade my camera which I've wanted to do for about a year now, and give him the camera I currently use. I really like the Fuji Finepix S5200. I'm just not sure after so long with a point-and-click digital if I'm ready to head back to the adjusting issues of an SLR. It's also about $350.
Yesterday morning and evening I was working on a one-time deal for Summer of Sugar Giggles. She's redesigning her site, and needed some layout examples of her kits/paper packs/elements. I think I may do one more 'cause I'm not super-crazy about the first one.

I'm sure there's something else, but right now I can't remember what...
Gotta' go get ready for work! Thanks for stopping by, and have a great day!

new laptop, new cameras....big fun!
Congratulations on being done with taxes!
My husband's laptop decided to die the week he got a bonus. It's like paying the car off and it croaks. I'm sure he is happy to have the freedom to move around and take his files with him.
I would like a new camera someday soon, but I always change my mind about what I want.
Great layouts!
Yes, I got my adsr partner the journaling & photo - it seems odd not to be scrapping, but I did journal, so that counts. :)
That seems like a really good price for a laptop! Hope he enjoys it.
Awesome layouts! Man, I love my camera. It's not a point and shoot, and it's not one of the huge ones, is that an SLR? ROFL I don't know it's a Nikon 8700 and it's my baby. I haven't figured out a lot of adjustments on it yet. Need to get the user manual out again.
Yeah, I still need to get my layout 11 done. That's on my list of things to do with my pen today. *crying* I need my pen back. To extract with a mouse after using a pen for so long is just not right.
Those desktops came out so awesome Cate! great job on them! I still need to put a link on my blog to send them over here!
Thanks for the links. I love Heathers stuff. Oh, and let us know how you like your new camera. I am in the same boat. Point and shoot camera wanting to go to SLR.
Taxes done - NICE! Hope your hubby enjoys his new laptop! And your layouts are great!
Awesome QP's....and so glad that Mike got a new laptop.....that will come in handy, huh? Taxes are done over here too, just waiting for my refund, which after checking the irs site...."there is a delay processing your refund" ACK!!! back to the accountant!!! Ok, I won't start...LOL..have a great day, and see you tomorrow...{{HUGS}}
isn't that nice, now you have a whole year till you have to deal with it again!
I love my camera, its a Cannon XTI and cost me a fortune but so worth the investment
Arrrrrrr! Taxes! I so don't envy that, Not cool. I want a new camera. Have my eyes and brain wrapped around a Nikon (I know, keep dreaming.( Think I might have to blog on cheap spouses). The layouts are really pretty.
Jaa talk about slacking w/those taxes If I don't do them by March I'm stressing out, LOL
I love sugargiggles her work is amazing and she's not really out their as much as others ;) but she totally should be.
Whata great deal on the laptop I'm looking for a new point&shoot camera.
Great job on the layouts.
