Thank you Jeff - you are all right - I SHALL spend money!

I was looking at the Nikon Coolpix8700 that Mike mentioned in another thread - 8 megapixels! I was working off 2! It's around $1,000 and seems like a good buy. I need a zoom as well since I do some landscapes too. But now Im going to go check out this one you are both recommending.


Janel - your right - the spouse will get over it. He already gave me that look that says "no" but out of his mouth he said "Whatever you think is best." Well, honey I think it's best that I buy this then a new wardrobe and a trip to Jamaica!

Terri - dont feel like a slacker. I am a schziphronic (not for real-don't be scared) as a painter. When I get excited about ideas I go and go and sleep very little. I am about due to crash soon for a few days where I sleep a lot. Just this morning my oldest accused me of eating the last of the danish he was going to have for breakfast. I forgot he called it last night and I got all these dirty looks from the kids - so that is my proof I am starting on my downward slope. When the kids start glaring I know it's time to slow down. Besides, these paintings are just that - paintings, not commissions. If your two are commissions then you have me beat right now! I am working hard, but some days I just want to scream: "Show me the money!"
