Glad to read that you're right on track with your workouts, Margo. And, isn't it amazing that the 5-7 milers end up feeling like a walk in the park? Take care of those toenails - mine took forever to come back.....wasn't a pretty sight....Take care.
...now I'm going to try to interpret my digital camera manual....... :( michele

HA HA.. oh my god.. you should see me in the album
when I let Al take pictures..
headless wifey...

actually.. I may have him do that.. then it won't matter how I look for a puter and wine picture.. LOL

Claudia,

We went to dinner at a friends house yesterday that is in the wholesale meat biz - pork specifically and yes the WHOLE house was decorated in Pig. Several hundred - ceramic-crystal-bronze-wood-quilted-polka dots- and every thing else in between. Just adorable.

Margo,
I live in the Conejo Valley (Conejo is Spanish for Rabbit). You can take some home with you on your cruise! We regularly see them live in our neighborhood

Great shot Margo!! I knew I could count on you to "bail me out" of this whole thread!! I love your desk....mine is a "Best Buys I" (original). Is yours a "Louis XIV" or "Louis XV" or "Louis XVI" (I know there were quite a few?????)

I LOVE your photo and your desk!!

And as promised. She was NOT in a good mood when I took this picture.



Masaki

Masaki - The LCT addiction starts early doesn't it? :D Darling picture!!!!! She's a sweetie.

Great pictures of everyone's desks!!!

Masaki...loved seeing our little fish! Those tiny toes look ready for surfin. But remember, it's not good to disturb a girl's beauty sleep - that might explain her unhappyness.

I'm lovin' all the photos! Especially of Marika LCTing. Cute!!!!

Betty

Masaki,

What a darling photo of Marika! Never too early to get her interested in LCT! I can't wait to read her first post!

Masaki, your picture of "little fish" brought a smile to my face this morning. Great way to start the day. Just think, if you start her cruising early, how many Gold Points and Radisson perks she can earn in her lifetime!

Masaki - how cute! Teaching them early is a great new trend, but, not too early! I think they start with reading now at about 4

After about 20 shots (blurry, pics of the floor etc) I finally figured out how to use the self timer! I had to put the camera on a shelf in the closet. I can say I felt pretty dumb smiling at the closet :)
I also followed all the rules, messy hair and the t-shirt I am wearing is what I slept in last night :eek: Now I can take a shower and get dressed!

Masaki, I love Marika's picture!!!

Karen where is your wine?
Masaki , thanks for the sweet picture of little fish.. by the way love your desk ( bed)..

Started out with salt and pepper pig collection
has not gotten "that" out of pig..er I mean hand

Claudia, it's not quite wine time yet :pass: I think better get out of my pj's first!

Cute pix Karen and I don't see see dust -

Karen~ You are, as I expected...absolutely adorable, but for some reason (duhhh :rolleyes: ) I expected your desk to have at least a dozen moniters............

editing to add that when I wake up in the morning I won't look at myself in the mirror, much less take a picture of me!! :eek: :eek:

Karen, I love it! You look so cute. Are you sure you look this good in the early morning??

Karen, yes, you are a cutie!

Very cute, Karen!

This is such a fun thread. Great photos, everyone! You all are so darling. I may have to read my digital camera manual too, and figure out how to take a self-portrait. Maybe ...

Pris: I agree- thank Goodness for off topic - such fun -

Masaki, Marika will definitely win the award for the youngest LCTer! She's so cute!!!

Karen...how do you look so good first thing in the morning???? AND, what a neat desk...what are your secrets? Love the photo - now that you have that timer figured out, we want more pics!

Margo, I did rub all the smeared mascara off from underneath my eyes so I didn't look like Alice Cooper :)

I do believe I like the view from your window, much better! (especially in the winter time)

Editing to add:
By the time I figured out the camera, it was well past noon!

I'm waiting for everybody else's picture!

Karen - loved your pic!

Masaki

Yea, there's Karen! You look great! Now we know what the brain center of LCT looks like! Neat window!

Marika is so precious! :)

michele

LOL Michele, I think you mean the brain impared center! ;)

No no, Karen. Definitely brain center, and beauty center too!

It's brains and beauty !...... great combination, Karen!

michele

Jean you look marvelous, as usual!!!!!

Jean, that picture is just TOO cute!! I think I can see Donna's avitar in the background :)

Great picture Jean!! Yes, I see Donna's avitar too!!

Yea, I did it, Karen! Thanks for the instructions. This is me at my computer. (Notice how you can't see the entire messy desk). I had to hold the camera out as far away as I could. It seems a little ridiculous smiling into a camera you yourself are holding! By the way, that's a photo of our two dogs propped up by the printer.

Priscilla, I am giving you a gold star for effort!!

What a fantastic picture! I have said it before and I will say it again, you could be Meryl Streep's sister!!

I laughed when you said you felt silly smiling into a camera you were holding as that's how I felt when I was leaning and smiling into the closet!

Priscilla, what a lovely lady you are!! (I should have already guessed that). Nothing to feel silly about....it's the end result that counts and yours came PERFECT!

Priscilla looks like Meryl, Marcie looks like Joanne Woodward and Karen looks like Demi Moore. Any other movie stars out there?
Jean, you are just one beautiful doll!

No Betty, it's Kimmi who looks like Demi Moore and me who resembles Dudley :)
