Homemade Get Well Card

I figured this would be a good way to save the precious memory of a lovely card from my sweet daughter (and not feel bad about throwing it out). It was from several weeks back from when I had my wisdom teeth removed.

 

 

Follow up, Follow-up, or Followup - Which is Correct?

I've been wanting to follow up on the follow-up I've been intending to do to figure out which of these three ways of writing this word/words is correct.  (Hint: I used them correctly in the preceding sentence.)
- follow up
- follow-up
- followup

I searched and found the following link that explains it all quite simply:
Follow Up, Follow-Up, or Followup

The short of it is that "follow up" is a verb and "follow-up" is a noun or an adjective, and "followup" is not a proper or valid way to write it.

A simple rule for knowing which to use, is if you can use the word the in front of it, then it should be follow-up (with a dash).  Otherwise, without the in front of it, it should be follow up (with a space).

My Wish List

I found that you can easily make your own wish list on Amazon.com, and I went ahead and made a quick one for myself.



Our project bulb seems to have gone bad, so it's probably just time for a new projector, since the bulbs themselves are very expensive. However, at this point, I'm not planning buying another one. And, I didn't do any research on which one I would want if I were to buy one. The one I added to my wish list is just one I added for the sake of showing my interest in projector.

I am planning on getting a new digital camera at some point, probably a little later on, but I'll want to research my choice at that time.

I'm NOT asking anyone to buy me anything, and I'm not really interested in that. But, I thought the Amazonwish list was pretty cool and easy, and I wanted to share it. Maybe you should make your own wish list to share with others.

Fall Photos - kids and leaves

Before we get too far into Winter, and since it's been quite a while since I've posted anything here, I thought I would share some fun pictures of the kids that I took one (rather warm) sunny Fall day.

These next couple are of the kids jumping off of the swing into a small pile of leaves. I love the mid-air shots.
