thanksgiving wishes

Happy Thanksgiving, to all those celebrating that this week. I'm so thankful to be together with family during this holiday time. even with the noise & mess level raised a bit. That's part of the fun. : )



A few random things I'm grateful for, in addition to all the BIG things (family, friends, peace, home, health, freedom, the Gospel...):

- 8 hours of sleep last night
- a few new things I learned about my Mac & Photoshop this week ("techie" brother Kevin is here!)
- GREEN grass in the front yard (I live in the desert ... that's something to be thankful for)
- an overcast sky today
- pedicure yesterday (with Lauren, my sister-in-law)
- Christmas decorations are up
- digital photography
- very kind e-mails from some of you (thanks!)
- shipped a very big box of "happy mail" to my friend yesterday & knowing it will cheer her up next week when she gets it

A couple quick notes:

Happy Thanksgiving!! I'm hoping that you'll share the things you learned from your brother regarding your Mac and Photoshop. I'm always looking for new tricks - I'm having a hard time switching from PC based Photoshop to Mac based. Please share!!

Hey, Becky! I am thankful.........for your inspiration. In your "snapshot of me" class in 2006 I wrote down my Top 10 things I want to do before I die.

I have accomplished 2 of them since then!

I posted the most recent update on my blog, and I just wanted to say thanks for prompting me!

Becky - Thanks for all the great ideas. I hope you and your family had a great Thanksgiving. On a totally separate note, I was wondering if you had posted a link to your file for your listing of pages that you're planning to do. I believe you mentioned it in one of your video messages. Thanks. Ululani

Hi Becky, I hope you and your family had a great Thanksgiving.
On a separate note (another one), I was wondering up until which issue of CK are your sketches included in your new Sketches book. I want to include all of your new sketches from CK into the book to keep them all together.
Thank you so much for your inspiration and your organizational skills - they have really helped me.
