Christmas morning!\u00a0 Flashbacks to when I was 5 or 6 and I saw the new <a href=\"http:\/\/www.inthe80s.com\/toys\/babyalive0.shtml\" target=\"_blank\">Baby Alive<\/a> doll under the tree.\u00a0 Did anyone else have the good fortune of having one of those?\u00a0 It ATE and DRANK and then went to the<em> bathroom<\/em>!\u00a0 Back in the late 70\u2019s early 80\u2019s, that was REVOLUTIONARY!\u00a0 Ha\u2026times sure have changed.\u00a0 Was I the only one that fed hers too much?\u00a0 Too bad they didn\u2019t make dolly Metamucil\u2026<\/p>\n<p>Anyway\u2026back to the point.\u00a0 I\u2019ve been reading the manual for my new camera off and on since last night, and my eyes and mind are starting to glaze over.\u00a0\u00a0 Let me tell you, I am usually NOT the one that reads the manual.\u00a0 I leave that up to my husband.\u00a0 I\u2019m the one that just rips everything out of the box and plays around with it, leaving the manual to be lost in some cupboard or box.\u00a0 Not this one\u2026 It\u2019s smarter than I am!\u00a0 Grrr.<\/p>\n<p>So, for a brain release\u2026I decided to take a trip down memory lane and look back at pictures I took on one of my trips with my good ol\u2019 \u201csmaller\u201d point and shoot.\u00a0 This is shot was taken a few years ago with my Canon Powershot 8.0 mega pixels.\u00a0 I loved these pics from my trip, but now I realize that they aren\u2019t as sharp as I thought they were\u2026 although, they still look ok in this size.\u00a0 Similar to when I finally got glasses~At first \u201cNobody can read that!\u201d then\u2026 \u201cAaaah, I guess I <em>should<\/em> have been able to read that sign after all!\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-350\"

outfit!<\/p>\n<p>And, of course I couldn\u2019t take it.\u00a0 1\/5 of the way through the manual, I had to take it outside!\u00a0 Plus, the sun broke through the clouds, so I had no choice.\u00a0
