Lunch visit.

We went to have lunch at the father in law's place. They have a garden full of fruit trees. Cherries are all gone now. But there are pears, peaches and apples. The peaches looks ripe but they are only ready to be picked in 3 weeks time. So maybe will go there again to help pick.

Getting a new camera.

Just ordered my birthday gift today. :P Which is a new digital camera. Compared to the one that I'm having now, the one I'm getting is indeed like a long distance moving from a beginner level to not so beginner level (Not a DSLR definitely. Would be too complicated for me). I have been having my current camera - Canon powershot A400 - for more than 5 years now. Still looks good and takes nice pictures too. But so obsolete that I don't see them selling these anymore. I don't intend to retire it, but will still use it at certain occasions. I love my Powershot. Just time for an upgrade.

Wanted to get a Canon Powershot SX110 IS at first because of the Canon brand. However I decided to get the one that I'm getting. Pretty excited. :) But I better learn all those photography jargons that I've avoided because without knowing any of those, having a better camera means nothing I know. :P

Relaxing day.

Yesterday afternoon, while on my way to tutor, I stopped by a store to buy a bottle of coke. While paying for the things at the cashier, I saw a display of dvds on sale. I saw an all time favourite movie - "You've got mail". Bought it. So, just now, we were watching the movie. Sure brought memories when we first met online. My husband and I. Really love sweet romance movies like this. *Sigh*

So while typing this I'm checking for wholesale lot dvds that I can order. :P Looking for Clark Gable and Tom Hank movies. Sure is in a shopping mode since everybody got something new. My husband got a new big flat screen monitor to use with his laptop (I'm so jealous) , while Bonnie got a professional music keyboard. Bet the neighbours would "love" the little musician in the making playing.

Nearly a week gone by with my husband at home. Bonnie loves it when her daddy is at home. I am too. Everybody seems to feel more relaxed.
