I bought a new digital camera! Yay! A Nikon Coolpix 3200. This one is so much better than my last one. Not only can I take more pictures (128 MB card) but the picture quality is hands-down better than my old digital, the camera is much smaller and lighter, only uses two AA batteries (as opposed to 4 with my old camera), and has video capability. So now I can shoot video and post them up to the website.

Today I met Greg's mom, a really nice lady, I like her a lot. Greg and I went over to her house to fix a broken light switch. I enjoyed talking with her and found it rather entertaining watching how she and Greg interacted. I could tell they really care for each other, it was sweet. Here is one example of their bantering. On the way over Greg called to warn her we were on our way and to make sure she released any tied-up naked guys that she may have been harboring. Now that made me laught out loud. It was just too funny. Too bad I can't say anything specific about her, she said she'd sue me if I took her picture or said anything personal about her on my website. Oh, well. Maybe she'll change her mind.

For the most part I spend the day hanging out with Greg and his family. In the evening they have company, a visit from one of their past foster children Danny who has since been adopted. His mom and brother come along with him. We all go swimming in Greg's inground pool and afterward have a tasty BBQ.
