Learning to Shoot
I know how to take pictures in that I have a good eye for shots. Up until now, I’ve used a standard point-and-shoot digital camera with decent, but limited, results. What I don’t know (yet!) is how to fully control the taking of those shots when you can change as much or as little of…
Busy Birthday
I have totally meant to make a post-birthday post for several days now but have been too busy to get to it. So here is a very brief (but photo-heavy) recap. More details to follow. Wednesday 16th My actual birthday. Love came home and surprised me by knocking on the door and when I answered,…
Happy Mother’s Day!
Wishing all the best to the Mom’s out there. And, especially to my own amazing Mom! Happy Mother’s Day!
Little Unexpected Perks
When you are a Disney fan, living a little over an hour away from Walt Disney World comes with obvious perks. Being a Florida resident means you can go for tiny money compared to the visitor who spends thousands for a week’s stay. (Honestly, you can go unlimited times throughout a year for $15/month as…
Love’s Birthday Weekend
Valentine’s Day evening was when I first realized I was sick. And I spent the next few days just in the typical, miserable fog of a cold. By Friday, I finally felt like the worst of it was over. With Love’s birthday coming up the following day, I ran an errand to the store to…
And…I’m Sick
Love went to work last Friday and by the time he got there, he realized he was sick with a cold. He stuck it out though and came home after work and was sick all weekend. I was really on the ball, changing the sheets, not drinking anything of his, washing my hands, etc. and…
Christmas with Mickey
We headed out to Disney for a few hours on Saturday since the last time we went, I was getting sick and we wound up having to leave and missed the fireworks, the Osborne lights, etc. Then, we couldn’t go because of Love having surgery on his leg. But! Love was a trooper and nine…
The Good and The Bad
Well, the good news is that yesterday, we finally made it Disney. We tried last weekend of course, but wound up stuck on the side of I-4 and had to get towed back. ($264 in repairs too.) The bad news is that I woke up with a bad sore throat, we got off to a…
Emotionally Broken – Fiances and Car Breakdown
Today we were on I-4 driving out to see the annual free Festival of the Masters Art Show at Downtown Disney, with plans to see the dancing Osborne Lights and fireworks afterward (just to do something fun after so long not feeling well from surgery), when the engine light came on in the car, Love…
On the Tow Truck
Not a sight I normally see. The Element on the flatbed of the tow truck this afternoon. 26 miles outside of Tampa. Its home in the parking lot now until we can come up with an idea of what to do next. "Depressed" doesn't even cover what I'm feeling right now. "Hopeless" might be more…
Stranded
Stranded on the side of l-4. With about $10 to our name for the week. Fucking awesome. Waiting on AAA. Posted via email from memoryanddream’s posterous
Last Pre-Surgery Weekend – 3 Days to Go
This weekend was the last before surgery. And since last week was so busy with appointments and since this week is busy with more appointments and well, surgery, we decided to try and have a little bit of fun. Saturday, October 1st was the 40th anniversary of the opening of Walt Disney World. I wanted…

Butterflies!
One of the highlights for me each year at the Flower and Garden Festival in Epcot is the butterfly garden! I absolutely love taking pictures of butterflies. Now, I have a compact point-and-shoot digital camera that, while it takes great pics, only has a 3x zoom. Butterflies are tricky little things and in a big…
