Tonight we went over to see my cousin and Parker - he is now officially one week old! :) As for the quality of the photo, it's not the best, I was banned from using the flash as we didn't want to wake the baby.
Speaking of Flash.... the Canon 580 was returned tonight. Unfortunately today the recession hit again and I was laid off... so the Flash needed to be returned so that I could clear off what was left on my VISA...
Now the job hunting begins. So to answer the question I asked at the end of my last entry... no - things couldn't get better... they could only get worse. Anyone want to hire me??

Aww, I'm sorry to hear you had to return the flash. I understand, though. And as I said before, I'm really sorry about your job. Try not to get too discouraged - I've been there before, and came out just fine. You will, too. *hugs* ncshutterbug · 2009-01-18: 12:52

That's such bad news, especially after yesterday's good news. Keep thinking positive and I hope you find something soon. Sonic7 · 2009-01-19: 07:18

Parker is totally sweet! I'm truly sorry about your job Keri. Down here we have people being laid off too but I guess it's not as bad... But we're just stickin to our jobs at the moment cuz it's a bad time to quit to find somethin new. You'll get a new job pretty soon and I bet it'll do you good too! :) shiqin · 2009-01-19: 09:07

Parker is very precious. You are a talented person. - I will keep you in my prays. Queen911 · 2009-01-19: 23:16

It's a precious picture, even if it's not the best quality. Sorry about your job and having to return the flash. Times are so tough right now! :( I will recommend, though, that you check out message boards and other online sites when you decide to repurchase a flash. You can find some really great deals, esp. on used. I recently ordered a 430ex for $190 and it's new! And I'm hoping things look up for you very soon! merin1011 · 2009-01-20: 11:45
