Lazy Hazy Days of Summer - (View Larger)

I love reading your replies.  You add so much 'creative' ideas just to your writing, and you seem so laid back and down to earth...not that the others don't...but I find you so easy to talk to...like I've know you 'forever'...showing my age there...!  We think a lot a like when it comes to the 'creative' side of things.  There just is something about exploring the creative side of things that I 'can't hlep'....just in my 'makeup' - always has and I guess always will.

My daughter Shauna is the same.  Although her camera is just about 'done for' she has a 'great eye' for composition. With her 2 young ones, she thinks of great ideas for shots.  I don't know how she ever has the time.  If I was ever able to 'rescue' her, I spoke to her the other week how we both would be great running a shop.  Her kids are both in school all day now, and if she could afford not to work outside the home, we'd have a blast.  I miss that part of being a 'Mom'.  We are so close but cannot be at this time...well it's been a long time. But I'm sure a solution will come one day.  Thanks Paul for your input and ideas.  Love to hear them all, sincerely, Gail

Always great to hear from you Didi, love your latest works.  Hope you've been enjoying your weekend.  Sincerely, Gail

Will have to get back to you all later....problems with laptop, would not turn off for me last night when I wanted to give it a rest.  After much frustration, finally took our the battery. Light went off...but when I turned on again, said my Windows 7 wasn't a 'real' version directed me to Windows site and wanted to download 7 all over instead of an easier method like 'entering your Product Key' but said I may loose a lot of info.

So I may take back to Future Shop to see if they can enter the code or fix without all this hassle.  Thankyou all for your generous comments and will try to get back to you as soon as I can.  Thankyou for your patience.  Sincerely, Gail

I apologise for being remiss at getting back to the replies on this one.  Will  try later today, sincerely, Gail
