Frustration is....

...trying to learn Adobe Photoshop in an hour with 3 kids running around who all want to play with you. Let's just say, it doesn't work well.

Adobe is super cool -- it can do so much, but learning it all is going to take me FOREVER!! The BOOK that comes with the software is over 200 pages. Fun times!! I need a class! LOL!! Holly (she took the kids pictures every month for probably 3 years) was nice enough to come over today and give me the quick overview, and I think she may be coming over Sunday night after the kids go to bed... Maybe then we can really concentrate!

So this afternoon while Katherine and Caleb take their naps, I'm going to start adjusting the lighting on all the pics, and do some other basic stuff -- removing red eye, cropping them etc... I *think* I can remember how to remove shadows too... Then when she comes back on Sunday, I can pick her brain for more tips! ... in the meantime it's me and THE BOOK!!

It's so hard to get any computer work done w/ 1 kid, I can't imagine 2 mobile toddlers!! Sounds daunting :)

I'm not comfortable with the fact that you'll know Adobe PhotoShop and I won't. LOL
