Melissa’s Cozy Teacup

I don’t have Photoshop, I have GIMP, a Linux based photo manipulation program. Here is one of the sunrises, before and after cubing.

Hubby and I went to Cabo San Lucas for our anniversary, the first week of December. I love, Chilaquiles which, surprise to me, you can look up on Wikipedia.

This was our view for breakfast everyday.

Same view without the cruise ship but taken from the rooftop restaurant. This is Land’s End.

I wonder what she is thinking? Does she want to go for a swim to cool off? Is she drawing the water for her bath? For the washing?

I married a wonderful man. He loves me very much and I him. He is a software engineer. He can sit down, read a book on a coding language he’s never seen before (in a week) then go and start coding a project. To me, I think that would be equivalent to learning Chinese in a week then writing a novel that people could actually understand and enjoy. I’m amazed. He has also won two Academy awards for his work. If you’ve watched a movie in the last ten years, you’ve watched something that has used his coding in their special effects. If you’ve written a check or used your credit/debit card in the last five years, chances are good that you’ve used a machine with his code inside. How cool is THAT? See, not everything is being made over seas.

He is so smart and creative. It is very exciting to see his projects come to life. He has been very inspirational to me in the short time we have been married. I have seen him struggle through a project and come out the other side successfully. I have seen him run the race and not give up. (bible reference)

He has also patiently endured my tea obsession, helping me to acquire tea accouterments and sampling tea sandwiches, helping me to pick the ones with the best filling to use for friends and family.

My husband is the inspiration for everything I do. I love you, Tech Hubby!

Ten more posts to go before I draw a name from those who have left comments on my blog during the month of December. The winner will receive a prize. Don’t let the fact that I have yet to pick out that prize deter you from commenting. Free stuff is always cool. Even if it comes from someone’s closet, which my prize will not, but I’ve had that happen before, you know, re-gifting.

Have you ever re-gifted? I have. White elephant gifts are great for that, just becafeful not to give it back to the person who gave it to you first, or one of their close friends who might wear it in front of them!
