On the left you will observe a Kodak EasyShare EX-1011 digital picture frame. You will also note that it appears to be interfaced with the notebook computer on the right. You would assume that means that nice pictures are about to be downloaded to the frame. Well, you assumption is wrong. It is about to be hooked up so that I can delete all the photos on it so that it can be returned to the store. As usual, Ginny didn't like the present I got her and it is going back to the store. My sons will understand. Normally, I might insert a rant about this but not today. Let sleeping dogs lie.

I feel Ginny's pain (and maybe yours) because I, too, am difficult to please. Yes, it's the thought that counts, but when unused presents pile up on shelves, gathering dust, what's the point of continuing the practice? This is especially important to keep in mind if a hoarder is trying to wean himself/herself of "stuff." In fact, one might even say that it is counterproductive to give gifts to a "fussyface." Giving exploding cupcakes (next photo) is enough to satisfy the fussiest of fussyfaces, though they do create a mess that must be cleaned up.

I DO NOT suprise my wife with her gifts any longer ! And she does not attempt to surprise ME... we get want we want and let the other person wrap it.
We are both much happier this way..... Wink,Wink,Nudge,Nudge 8-)
