Learning...

...I'm always trying to learn new things, buying books, watching tutorials, reading blogs, etc.  One thing I've "learned" is that you can't "learn" everything.  In the last couple of months, I've bought 4 new books about PhotoShop CS5...really?  I don't know what I was [am] thinking!  First of all, do I "really" want to know all of this stuff and, if so, WHY?  It's like, okay...I turned 50 this past May [I know, whatever!], so I only [realistically] have a few more years to learn things and retain the information.  So today I'm thinking, is this something I want to even retain?  Seems as though there are more important things to remember...like my husband's birthday, the way he smells when he comes out of the woods, the way Ozzy looks at me when I ask him "wanna treat!!", the way my sister laughs on the phone when I tell her something funny, the way my son smiles at me when I tell him he's the best human being on the whole planet, the way my mom gets "giddy" when I talk to her about sex...these are the things I "really" want to remember.  But, I really am enjoying "learning" PhotoShop, but I just hope it's not something I remember when I'm 64! 
And, before I go, I must share this awesome photo of my little Hummingbird visitor today:
 And Ozzy :)
Thanks PhotoShop!!  I'm glad I decided to learn {a little bit} more!

Happy Friday everybody!!!  xo ~ Kathy

  1. lol! I am the same Kathy! I buy too many books and magazines on the same info. Love Scott Kelby's books and the Somerset Studio mags. Enjoyed your thoughts about Wayne, Broc, Karen and your mom! I imagined each one of them when when I read it:)
