Still Running

I had a load of towels to wash. Put them in and left the room. Came back half an hour later and the towels were still soaking in a washer full of water. OK, guess it's time for a new one. Been wondering how much longer this old thing would last. Bought it in 1972! Raised 4 daughters with this thing keeping their clothes smelling good. And this thing kept linens and rugs, etc. clean, too.
Well....Bernell took a look at it, pulled the front and back panel off, pulled the lead to each of the different controls in and out once, punched the controls and off she went, humming her good old tune again. Finished the load of towels and it's still keeping us clean! Who says a CAT has 9 lives?

It's Finished!!!

I've finally finished making our
"2008 Family Movie DVD." Started it the end of January. After learning the new program, mistake frustration, pestering Bernell, and computer overload, I spent more than 100 hours putting it together.

I made one last year of the twins, Ava and Liam's first year, and decided it would be fun to make a new one of all the movies and pictures I took of family gatherings, trips, etc. Total time to watch - 1 hr and 15 min. A bit long but will be enjoyable for years to come.

Would love to have had this kind of technology when our daughters were growing up. Have to see if the few old fashion movies we have can be converted for use this way. Wouldn't that be fun!!!!
