"I-Q-U-I-T" Spells Happiness for Hubby

Do people say “I quit” any more? I think that “I resign” is more the norm. In the professional world anyway.

It doesn’t really matter, though, because it means the same thing….

I AM NOT WORKING HERE ANY MORE!!!

We’re talking about Hubby here. Not me.

Mike turned in his resignation yesterday. He’s going to work for another company in the same industry. He’s got to put a few more weeks in at his current job before he gets to move on.

That’s the professional way to do things. It would have felt better to say something like, “Hey, asshole. I quit. I am so glad to be rid of you it isn’t funny. Actually, it is funny. HA HA! I’m happy. You will be out of my life, finally! Finally!”

I could go on, but I’ll stop before I end up typing really nasty words.

It is nice to see Hubby happy. He deserves it.

“You, go, Hubby! I’m proud of you!”

On another note…

I posted a picture yesterday. I admitted to PhotoShopping it. The result, though manipulated, is pretty neat.

Amy (youngest daughter) asked what the SOOC (straight out of the camera) image looks like. I guess you’d all appreciate it more if you could see the before and after.

So here we go…

Before (Boooooring)

After (Artful)

PhotoShop is a great program, but I have TONS to learn. And not enough spare time to do it!

Oh yeah, I exercised today. On my rebounder. So I’m no loser today!

Practice Makes Perfect

Today was pretty uneventful for me. Just another work day. I did exercise, though (biking). And despite not feeling great yesterday, I did take a walk. The point is not to walk, but to MOVE. I sit around far too much.

I did work all day, which is why my post is so late. And I couldn’t think of any exciting photos to share. So I made one.

I’ve been working on my PhotoShop technique. I took an otherwise boring picture and made it look sort of interesting. I think so, anyway.

Because I have absolutely nothing to talk about, I’ll stop here. Besides, the Olympics is on. I am missing women’s synchronized diving!

Let me know if you enjoyed today’s attempt at “art” (the picture).

Hey There, Pussycat

This past weekend was relatively uneventful. Mike went to WV to retrieve some stuff he inadvertently left behind. I stayed home to do some stuff I never seem to have time to do. Mainly because we spend all of our weekends in WV and I just don’t have much spare time during the week.

Saturday morning, as I was contemplating where to begin (what errand to run first), I noticed Muffin, our youngest cat, curled up on the dog bed. I couldn’t resist taking a few pictures. This is one of them.

She does have pretty, green eyes. But not this green. I was experimenting with PhotoShop and thought the end result (the picture shown here) was sort of cool. So I decided to share it.

By the way, I haven’t walked yet today, but I will. So don’t call me a loser yet.

Have a happy Monday!
