Great early-Birthday presents, lucky you. I've seen pics of these in country mags where they were used as the seats for stools (like a breaksfast bar stool). If I can find the pic in that particular mag, I'll post it for you or tell you where you can find it. (I think it was Country Living mag.) Sal

Thanks all. I'm really excited. I've been wanting to do something like this for years, but it's only recently that work has let me stay local long enough to make even a brief commitment. And thanks for the birthday wishes - but you all sent them weeks ago on my actual birthday! ;) p.s. Annie - I immediately thought of you when I read the sentence "Most importantly, youÂll gain the experience you need to cook with confidence and pleasure---without relying strictly on recipes." LOL!

Update -- right after I had posted that I was able to order three of the digital albums (on August 29), I got a confirmation e-mail from QVC saying that I had, indeed, ordered and would receive three. On August 30 I received an e-mail from QVC with the subject line "QVC: Your Order(s) Has Shipped." But, it showed only one item as having been shipped. Then, on September 2 I received another e-mail from QVC with the same "Shipped" subject line, showing that the other two items have shipped. I received the first one on Wednesday or Thursday (I think -- I put it aside and didn't open it so now I'm not sure what day it arrived). I just now got around to opening the box. This is so cool!! It has a nice weight -- not too heavy to be kept in a purse, but not lightweight/flimsy. And it's a really pretty shade of pink, too. :-) I told my sister that I had ordered this for my niece (her daughter), but didn't tell her that I had ordered one for her, too. I just called her and asked her to e-mail me some more photos of the baby, so I can load them onto the device before I send it to my niece. Little does she know that I'll load them onto hers, too! I just checked QVC and the item is available -- the pink and the silver can be ordered, but it says "Available On Waitlist." The blue (looks like a pretty shade of blue, too), is in stock.

Darn...I was looking forward to some pictures of the new windows and I'm sure you were looking forward to taking them! As for the Freedom, if you can believe this...it's a FREE cruise. My husband doesn't agree (LOL) because he earned it for being numero uno salesperson at work. We were able to book a wrap around balcony on deck 7. Don't know the name of the deck. I've always wanted to try a wrap around and I'm so excited about it! It's an 8 day cruise so I'll be able to spend lots of time on that balcony and trust me...I will! Still can't wait to see pics of your new windows. I'm sure they will be so awesome, Glenda! Eileen
