I spent some time yesterday organizing the zillion or so pictures I took in 2016 in preparation for compiling our annual family photo book. It was a complete pain in the butt because I don’t think I did anything with them at all last year, other than move pictures from my phone (which I used way more often than my Nikon last year) onto my computer into a file called “camera pix – need to sort.” It took me forever to get them all sorted, primarily because of this:
Because I am so easily amused, I spent probably a couple of hours trying to make a gif of said bouncy fun. But, my computer being the junkpile that it is, it didn’t want to cooperate. Photoshop kept freezing, and what I wanted to do was bigger than most of the online utilities I found would allow.
Stupid size limits, anyway.
I spent probably half of this morning fooling around with it some more and finally got what I wanted to do cut down to a reasonable size.
Now, to scamper off to dinner before I make some more. 😀 How are you spending your weekend?

I’m so glad I’m not the only one who uses burst mode and then gets distracted watching them later!

I spent the weekend cleaning a closet. ONE closet. I didn’t realize until I started that it hasn’t been cleaned in over two decades.

I once had an apartment that had a closet in each bedroom, plus one in the entryway, that were enormous floor-to-ceiling, wall-to-wall type things. They were amazing. I think I had more storage space in that apartment than I have in my house now, and I’ve gotten rid of a lot in the last nine years.

The problem is, more storage space prompts people to store more!

It’s true, but I don’t have enough storage space for the stuff I already have, and I’m still downsizing. I just want to get it out of my office so I have enough room to actually work in there! You know, once we get the whole heating/cooling problem fixed…
