Resting your shoulder...just like Tigger!

Happy caturday, Dear LUV W!

[MEG33]

Thank you for your sweet comments and darling Good Nights
(((Kitty)))

[pollywog]

Thanks Amy!! I’m going to give it a go! LOL

[pollywog]

...also I linked the kitty picture from a new photo site I have started using. ( use.com) It is a great free site but I didn’t know it has that “ click to enlarge” under graphics and I don’t like that part.

[JustAmy]

Maybe you could have clicked for the larger image before copying the URL. Also, you can make the width a little larger than the one they show. I usually don’t go too much larger because you can lose some of the sharpness.

Fool around and see what you get. If it is really awful, we can ask the moderator to remove it.

Good Luck.

...well Amy, I’m just sitting here having a PJ day and doing some “ learn’n” about more ways to use the HTML.
I did find out on this use.com they have templates with options so I may be driving you all nuts with photos! LOL

On a serious note, my sweet hubby had surgery yesterday. He had a carcinoma on his face right by the eye. He looks battle worn but the cancer is gone. Praise God.

[JustAmy]

Thank you, Father, for standing by MrWog and his doctors yesterday.

I’m off and on today. Trying to get some STUFF done. Takes too long to finish anything.

Bah Humbug! LOL

[luvie]

I’m thankful he had the surgery and they got it taken care of!

[pollywog]

Question... do you use a certain software or a free download option with all those marvelous frames for your graphics?
or ClipArt?

[pollywog]

Oh LUV , so am I...we thought it was nothing. Kept growing and then turned dark and started causing pain in his eye. He went to the Dr. last month and then onto a oncologist..cancer! Oh how I hated those words.
Fortunately it was caught soon enough.

[JustAmy]

I used Paint Shop Pro on most of them. I’m sure you can go to Amazon and find a copy of that or another sofware imaging program.

I have a new Photo Explosion that I haven’t installed yet. My son gave it to me but I haven taken the time to do much with images recently. Billie and Lori are the Pros.

Maybe I will have time to get back to framing images. I have only a couple of Dr/Dent appts before the 1st of the year.

[pollywog]

Thanks for this information. I am going to look into the PaintShopPro.

[luvie]

I know it must have given you both a chill to hear that word!

[jaycee]

This is darling, Polly!!!

[pollywog]

gee thanks Jaycee... I will learn as time goes on. I just thought that sweet siamese in pj’s looks so cute. What is the best is his expression...but the photo needs enlarged to see that more clearly.

Well I’ve made hamburgers for dinner ( bbqed), and nice dish of ice cream, the dishwasher is doing the work and I am thinking it won’t be long before bed.

The weather is definitely leading to hibernation for the winter! lol

[MEG33]

I do all mine using HTML..
I thank God your dear husband’s cancer is removed.

[MEG33]

We are having thunderstorms and lost electricity earlier..
I am posting early in case I lose power in the morning

*Welcome To Sunday At Amy's Place*

It often helps in time of trial
When fearful and alone,
To know that every doubt we feel
The greatest saints have known.

Hi, Amy and company:



Innocence





Mother and Father are just upset
At the amount of Love and Attention we get
Par for the course for this Curious Quartet

As we poke and prod and push and leap
Finding answers to questions ponderous and deep
More often than not, while our Pretty One sleeps

Mother may wince and Father may roll his his eyes
As we spend hours trying to figure out "How?"s and "Why?"s
And finding that looking Innocent is a wonderful disguise!

This thing called "Gravity" is something we have come to detest!
Unseen and foreboding. It keeps us from preforming at our best
In conquering Challenges and other meaningful Conquests

Like the Top of the Curtains, The Big Long Chair and Mother's sunny Window Sill
They taunt us with their height and size. Unaware that where their is a will
There is a way to scheme and achieve and finally fulfill

Mother and Father may be embarrassed and look away
As we put our Kittenish desires on sometimes clumsy display
Reminding Mother and Father of how they may have behaved back in the day!
