I Had No Idea

Thanks so much for leaving comments in my last post about the monthly templates!  I really didn't know how many of you are using them and like them.  Now I'm motivated to make them, knowing that you like them!  If you remember, leave a link on my blog when you've made a page with the templates.  I would  love to see how you've used them!  :)

Today's photo is of Todd eating an In-N-Out Burger.

I dunno if you remember, but I also have a photo of Peppermint eating her first In-N-Out burger over here, and a photo of me biting into one here. I was going for the trifecta. Now that I have all three photos, I can make a page that I've been wanting to make! :: evil laugh ::

Tonight Todd and I hit up a local yogurt shop.  They have open mic there on Friday nights.  Look how cute this pair of brother and sister guitar and bass duo are!  They played four songs, one of which was Ozzie Osbourne's "Crazy Train"!

I wanted to tell you about some online classes I'm taking, especially the free ones.
Creative Techs offer weekly free classes for digital photography, Photoshop, and Lightroom! I "attended" the first Lightroom class back on Monday, and it was great. It was an overview of the next nine weeks, what we're going to cover. It's not too late to sign up if you're interested. They want as many people as possible. The first 1,000 people to log into the classes get in the live session when it's actually happening, but you can watch the class video for free for a week after the live session. After the week is over, they sell them as downloads. Give it a try if you're interested!

The other two classes I am taking are:
  • Cathy Zielske's Me:  The Abridged Version at Big Picture Scrapbooking - am loving the class.  I need to make more progress on the journaling and find photos for all my words throughout the alphabet.  I would link to the class but I can't find the page anymore...
  • Tiffany Tillman's Photoshop Brushshop class at ReneePearson.com - This class doesn't start until next week, but I'm totally looking forward to learning more about how to make and use Photoshop brushes.  I use them already, but I think I'll learn a lot more in this class.
 I am finally going back to run with my running club tomorrow morning.  EARLY.  Wish me luck!  And have a nice weekend!

  1. Killing me with the hamburger pictures! I miss them so. :(

    Maybe you could post some of the info you learn about Photoshop brushes. I'm scared of them.

    Hope you had a fun run! Have a great weekend!

  4. Thanks for the September template. I've missed checking in on you the past few weeks--my hard drive crashed and had to have a new one installed. Bummer, but at least I did have everything backed up. I will be in Tiffany's class too. See you there.

  5. Do you have a Five Guys Burger & Fries there? We don't have In & Out but we have Five Guys and they are yummy. If you ever get the chance try them. I've only had In & Out a couple of times but I think Five Guys might be better. LOL

  6. Looks like a yummy hamburger!

    Thanks for linking to the online classes. The Creative Techs digital photography class sounds really interesting. I've been looking for a SLR class, but it is hard to find one that is not too basic.
