    I finally did it!

    I've been wanting a real camera for a long time. I thought I wanted a DSLR, and then I started researching and discovered that this one is not only great for pictures, but better than the DSLRs in its class for video. It's the Canon EOS M50 mirrorless.

    I've had point-and-shoots before but never a bridge/mirrorless or DSLR. I have no idea how to use it yet but I can't wait to learn.

    I've been pining after this camera since April when it went on sale. I didn't buy it then and shot myself in the foot when the price went back up. I've waited all this time for it to go back on sale for Black Friday.

    I'm very proud of myself. This is a big win for me because I finally bit the bullet and told myself I deserve to have nice things!

    That looks really nice .
    Have you use it yet ?

    Key reminder if you want to buy some thing wait until Black Friday !

    don't mix pepto and alka seltzers

    Why tho 🤔 does it make you burp up the pepto?

    you definitely shouldn't try it

    I’m trying it

    With advil and a mello yello

    ... people still drink Mello Yello?

    So far, I've taken out the battery and charged it. 🙂 I haven't had time to play with it yet because I need a whole day to figure out the tech stuff like downloading and using the app so I can wirelessly download photos. Then I need to learn it by reading the manual and watching videos. I'll post my first photo in photography thread!

    I won at a couple things today. Took care of adulting stuff like buying groceries, etc.

    Found my sister a super cute Christmas gift. She lives in the cold so I'm getting her fleece-lined leggings in a Burgundy wine color, then I scoured Amazon to find a knit hat and gloves that match the color perfectly.

    Got a sweet, uplifting message!

    Today was a good day.

    Why is that soda trying to masquerade around like an energy drink can? They aren't fooling anyone. :lol:

    The way the can is designed is very reminiscent of energy drinks.

    Well so far I finally jogged a little. First time in a long time. I've also started applying places for a second job on the weekend.
