"Neighbors bring food with death and flowers with sickness and little things in between. Boo was our neighbor. He gave us two soap dolls, a broken watch and chain, a pair of good-luck pennies, and our lives. But neighbors give in return. We never put back into the tree what we took out of it: we had given him nothing, and it made me sad." - Scout in Harper Lee's To Kill a Mockingbird

I also got this for Christmas
Somehow this also ended up in my "basket" in my Amazon Account. then, I got instruction from Rick: "whatever you do, DO NOT read any emails from Amazon." Great advice. Little did he know that his Christmas present was also coming from Amazon and I scanned my email regularly to make sure his gift was on its way.
I still acted surprised on Christmas Morning. I swear I am going to learn how to use this thing. Rick has a co-worker that promises she can teach me how to take decent pictures.
I keep thinking that I will get bundled up and go for a walk and practice taking pictures. It has a setting for every. single. situation. you can imagine. Seriously. But, I never make it outside to take pictures because it's too blasted cold. I spent too many winters in the South where the snow melts within 4 minutes of falling. Not 4 months. I feel like going to bed right now and waking up sometime in February.
But, I promise I will learn how to use this camera. Even if I have to plan a trip to Hawaii to use it. hehehe.

I agree with the going to bed & waking up in February. And I'm living in the balmy 50s. You almost sound like Frog from "Frog & Toad" or was it Toad?
I would be willing to sacrifice and plan to go to Hawaii with you and watch you learn how to take pictures with your sweet camera....really, it's the least I could do.... lol
Yay! learn how, and then teach me stuff OK?
