Good morning all!

I want to share a picture with you today. It’s the full moon on Christmas Eve. I set the zoom on my camera to the full extent, then cropped the picture to just have the moon centered. The line across the middle of it is actually a tree branch — I had this idea that it would be cool to have the moon showing through the branches of this tree and it does look pretty cool with less zoom put on it.

I know you’re supposed to take this type photo with special lenses and filters, but I use what I have at hand which is my little Sony DSC that Ken gave me last year for Christmas. It’s actually a pretty nice camera. Not professional quality, but getting there. I’ve certainly caught my share of hummingbirds on the wing with it.

I started reading my book yesterday adn got about 50 pages into it. It’s not quite as heavy (yet) as I thought it might be, and seems to be written with the premise that the reader knows very little about the basics. I am learning some things I didn’t know about the different versions of SQL 2005 that are available.

I’m going to have lunch with Lee today. I haven’t seen her since before Christmas although she sent me a picture of her and Foxy with Santa — so cute! She’s sewn my sheers together into a scarf that I’m going to put over the living room window. Let’s hope I can drape it so that it looks like something other than a rag thrown up on the curtain rod 😛

I hope Eddie and Chrystalyn are feeling better — Eddie said they were both feeling pretty bad over Christmas.

Well, I’ve got to run!

Love to all,

Margaret
