The local coffee shop has invited me to lead a group once a week, to teach what you can do with digital pictures. I've been making photobooks on Shutterfly for years. So many, that they send me an email every once in a while for a freebie photobook.
I also make calendars for the Grandparents every Christmas, and all sorts of other kinds of gifts.
I also, make home made movie slide shows out of my pictures, and set them to music. I can do all kinds of things with pictures.
It's easy to get lost in this big ole world being "His Wife" and "Their Mom". Sometimes, I get so involved with taking care of everyone else, and making sure they are happy, and they have everything they need, and everything is in order.. I tend to forget who I was, and what made ME happy. I used to be a teacher, I used to teach preschool. And now that I am on permanent disability I just stay home and run the house. Yes, I always wanted to be a Mommy when I grew up. This IS what I wanted, I just didn't expect to lose myself.
So this opportunity to get out once a week, and spend a night in the coffee shop, with other picture takers, sounds like it was tailor made just for me. I'd love to share my knowledge of what I learned how to do, with others, I WAS a teacher :)
Drink coffee, talk pictures, GET OUT. Do something I LIKE.. it's exciting!
Here is an example of a movie I made of all of us having fun this summer, at out favorite spot.. THE RIVER :) Be sure to listen with sound.
