The topic: Disney photos from last year

----------------------------------------------

I really have to get organized when I work on these. What a mess.

Most of the photos are 4:3 ratio.  I’ve resized the pictures to a height of 1080, then put them on a background of 1920 x 1080.  If the pictures were smaller than that to begin with, I kept them the same size and adjusted the background accordingly.  I want the resolution as good as possible for the yearly DVD.

My problem?  Somehow I’ve got duplicates and triplicates of the copies. And for some reason, they’re not all the same file size. And since there’s no EXIF information on the copies, I have no idea what time of the day they happened.  Well, I can keep hopping back and forth between the originals and the copies.  Oh, and the EXIF information isn’t right on all of them. 

Everyone (except one person) sent copies of the photos that were taken.  For some reason, some of them are showing they were taken in January.  I’m at a loss.

I’ve got multiple folders for day.  I’m so confused!

So, next time?

When I download the pictures to my computer, I’ll immediately put them into the correct folder (day/time).  Those will be labeled “originals”.  Then I’ll split up the “originals” further. And those are the ones I’ll work with.  So, next year, I’m not stuck in this quagmire I’ve put myself into this year. 

I’ve got floors that need scrubbing, windows need washing. I’ve got better things to do than fix my problems.

The topic: Skip’s weight

----------------------------------------------

Last Sunday, he weighed eleven pounds, seven and a half ounces.  This morning, he was an even twelve pounds! When I first took him in to the vet last month, he weighed over thirteen pounds and he’s lost weight before I took him in.  He continued to lose when I brought him home.

He’s doing better!  Still on the appetite stimulant, but he is getting stronger.  He’s got more fight in him when I take him into the shop to weigh him, but he’s pretty good about staying still on the scales.

So, he’s put on over a half of a pound in a week.  I’m hoping he keeps this up until he gets back to his fighting weight.  Even though he’s never been a fighter.
