Not having a small point-and-shoot camera is really starting to bother me. I am hoping to get one for my birthday [May 9th], but it feels almost impossible to wait that long! For some reason, it is more difficult to have to use my big camera. Aside from the fact that it is heavy [It's 2+ pounds!] and that it doesn't fit well into my purse, I have not learned enough about the camera to take decent pictures. (Which is a whole different problem in itself!)
Now that I got that out [Sorry for using the blog to vent about my camera issues!], I want to share an idea that I have. Although I know that I will not be able to cross off everything from my list this year, I want to do my best in the remaining days to cross off as many things as I can. With 13 days left, I figure why not kill two birds with one stone.* I am going to throw a Cuban themed dinner party. [See #9 and #23 from the list.] I am hoping to have invitations sent out by tomorrow at the latest. (That means that I need to actually pick a date to do this!) M has informed me that he wants ALL OF MY FREE TIME during the week of May 3-9th. I swooned over the fact that he wanted to spend so much time with me, but now I realize that I might have to push back the date of the dinner party to the week after my birthday. (It will pretty much depend on whether or not M will let me throw the dinner party that week.) I won't, however, let this hinder me from crossing it off the list. I figure that if the invitations are sent out and everything is in place before my actual birthday, then I can cross it off the list even if the dinner party takes place after the fact.
*Don't worry, no birds will be harmed; this was simply a figure of speech.
