It’s a bit miserable outside today isn’t it? Grey skies and drizzly rain mean that we’re not going far today. Miss Frugal is still at her friends house and Master Frugal is really missing her. He’s sat on the settee in his Power Ranger’s costume with a sad face waiting for her to come back.
We decided to look and some happy pictures as I was downloading them from my camera to the computer and these are his favourite four taken yesterday at the playpark. They cheered him up for all of about ten seconds and now he’s miserable again!
Oh well, lets see if Handy Manny can cheer him up….


I have literally hundreds of photos on my computer and an 8gb USB stick filled with more. I really must organise them all and get myself sorted as I take stacks of photos every week.
Some people label every photo but it would take me about a year to do that. I’m not exactly sure how I should organise them though – do I have a folder for each month or a folder for each event (although baking a cake does not exactly warrant it’s own folder) or is there a better way that I haven’t thought of?

Thanks for sharing your way, it sounds very organised and just what I am after. I just need to get around to doing it lol….
I am the same for taking photo's and had the same dilemma a few years ago. I decided on a file per event and name them by number first then name and date ie file 1 Surfing Aug 31 2009. By giving a file number it keeps them in chronological order on your PC and you can archive them in a separate folder once they have been blogged. I know, I'm mad – but it works for me, and I am always able to find a single event years later, so it definitely works LOL
