Thanks for our Hearth

I've heard this song since Robert started at Vinton in 2005 but it never ceases to warm my heart(h). This is seriously one of their best collaborations so far.

The perfect Christmas card photo

Photobooth

As as happened in many households throughout the United States, my kids are waking up a lot earlier in the mornings since we switched to daylight savings. This is exacerbated by the presence of the kitten at the top of the stairs when R wakes up to with his early morning full bladder. Instead of returning to bed, he plays with the kitten. And then well one thing leads to another and we're all up at 6 am. Keeping them entertained and not completely annoying is now a task of the mornings where we used to be rushing just to be on time. This is where Photobooth comes in.

The kids are kids of obsessed with Photobooth. They use both the video and photo capabilities of the application. They especially love the effects part where they can distort themselves and the video as a whole. It's fun to watch them as they brainstorm ideas or just freeform. They've been using it off on and since I bought my Mac about 2 years ago. Last night and this morning were no exception.

This morning, Don and I joined in on the action and we captured a really lovely family photo. I'm thinking Christmas Card.

just not in the mood


Grumpy... or is it Grouchy?

I'm not in the mood for much today. No discernible reason, just not in the mood. I tried combating "my case of the Mondays" with productivity and that seems to have back fired. Two resumes emailed and half of a bathroom cleaned later, I think I'm pissier.

Oh well, better to just own up to being pissing.
