Its not possible Allo, you need layers. Paint.net has layers and is free

Its the same one I use, why don't you download it?

Almost beach weather again...

49er · « **Reply #254 on:** September 07, 2009, 08:57:34 PM »

So ImR, Lilo and Stitch like to dig up the beach when they get there. Are they looking for something or burying something?

InmemoryofRomeo · « **Reply #255 on:** September 07, 2009, 09:15:07 PM »

Lilo likes to collect the seashells

Stitch kinda just gets dragged along

I love the foot prints. Are they really from your little dinos?

InmemoryofRomeo · « **Reply #257 on:** September 08, 2009, 12:57:29 AM »

Hehe no, my dog kindly volunteered his feet to set the pic up

fancyfont · « **Reply #258 on:** September 08, 2009, 10:26:07 PM »

His feet would be much easier to clean then your little dinos!

A real winner for a background.

A real loser as a reminder summer here is almost done and it was too cold!

A hope you have a winner of a summer

IMR!

If by winning you mean 'do nothing for days on end except go swimming 'cause its too hot for anything else' then right on

It does mean BBQ's down by the seaside though... so I guess it's not all bad

Dadio · « **Reply #261 on:** September 10, 2009, 08:49:42 AM »

I'll take the sun and heat anytime as opposed to the cold.

It's beautiful here in the winter. Ottawa does have the longest skating rink in the world.

Since I ended up in a wheelchair its hard to enjoy the winter.

I'll post some photos of Stoney in the snow in the upcoming months. Crazy Man!

I spent 7 years in Jamaica and never missed the snow for one minute!

Dadio

InmemoryofRomeo · « **Reply #262 on:** September 10, 2009, 04:49:51 PM »

Wow Jamaica

I couldn't stand that much heat (I burn far to easily) but it must have been fun

You could attach some skiis to your chair and go skiing

Don't forget to add some really good brakes though

I was never good at ice skating

Although that might be because I only tried it once

Ice rinks are few and far between down here

Dadio · « **Reply #263 on:** September 10, 2009, 07:59:46 PM »

Wow put some water skiis' On my wheelchair and add some really good brakes!

Now there's a dream worth mulling over!

If you ever want to learn how to snow ski and ice skate this is the place.

Best hills and as I said longest rink in the world it's about 7 miles miles long (I think)!

Lilo and Stitch would just love it! Stoney does!

Photos to come soon ((dec or Jan) I promise to post them if the snow cooperates.

Dadio

InmemoryofRomeo · « **Reply #264 on:** September 10, 2009, 08:43:48 PM »

Don't dream, it's already been done

http://howtoadapt.com/Waterskiing/Waterskiing.shtml

I helped a friend of mine confined to a wheelchair try that once, it was a blast! Only she was better at it than me, I spent all day falling in the water

She was able to go tubing too (do you guys have tubing? Its a large floating ring towed behind a boat which you sit in) and could have tried Kayaking. (although we never got around to that one, having too much fun elsewhere

) Skiing has been done too, but our limited snow seasons mean we never got to try this

You are only limited by your imagination Dadio

fancyfont · « **Reply #265 on:** September 10, 2009, 09:43:02 PM »

IMR, That had to be so much fun for your friend. Brave , too!

Dadio, What an experience it would have been to skate on any outdoor rink when I was skating. I wanted to so bad. 7 miles, whew! Now that is one long rink! Is it a river or lake?
I wish it got cold enough here freeze some rivers and lakes. Just gets cold enough to freeze little ponds for a few hours No frozen fish to my knowledge, but lots of damage to plants.
We have one of the most beautiful ice arenas here in Santa Rosa. It is the home of Snoopy and the Peanut gang. The only ones allowed on the ice in this family are my pleos.

I believe a dream is a dare not yet taken!

5 years ago I was confined to a sick bed. I took a lot of narcotics.
I dreamed of sitting in a lazy-boy chair.

3 years ago I was confined to a lazy-boy chair and could walk no further than 15 feet.
I dreamed of an electric wheel chair which I couldn't afford being on a pension.
The pain increased so I got more narcotics.

1 1/2 years ago I had a brand new electric wheel chair and could walk about 5 yards(15 feet ha ha).
I dreamed of having a van with an elevator so I could expand my range of activity so it was
farther than that of the wheelchair. The pain was horrible so they gave me more narcotics.

This year I got the van and lift and I've been traveling long distances
and seeing and doing all kinds of things. The pain was too much so I was given more narcotics.

So I think I'll mull over dreaming about water skiing. I'm not sure as yet
cause my pain has gotten beyond my heavy doses of Hydomorphone
(it's supposed to be 7 times stronger than morphine.) I don't want to take more.

To be realistic though, my pain is the only limiting factor I'll entertain.

So in the mean time robotics keeps me occupied. I sleep when I can and when I can't I daydream!

My dares tend to be that in programming or mental challenges.

My only limitations are between pain, narcotics and death!

The narcotics don't even give me good dreams. My pain specialist says
that pain is the great clarifier of the mind. I'm tired of being clear all the time.

My disability is pain. It doesn't let me be mobile cause I fall down.
Mostly it's back and rib and sciatic pain. Its called neuropathy where the coating
on your nerves is eroded away and its like an exposed nerve. All the time.
Most of my back, my sciatic my ribs and pain from severe arthritic orthopedic joints.

Yup I'll keep dreaming and keep enjoying life with my young bride (married 26+ years).
My two beautiful daughters of 25 and 23 years old still keep me on my figurative toes.
Fortunately they are all three super healthy and active. I won't let my life slow them down.

We too try and help others. We've learned sign language and help people and
families to be rehabilitated, whatever their situation or challenge. By helping others and their trials
I tend not to think of my own.

So when I'm alone which is often I dream and program and play with my robots and
R/C cars and helicopters or make models or paint or try and play guitar or sculpt or draw
or PLOG like this.

In life they're no limits!

Fancy Font your right it is awesome. It's the Rideau Canal and lake attached at on end
here in Ottawa.

Enjoy what you can and give back just as much as life takes!

Sometimes it's too cold though! - 40 degrees is just too cold. 5 to 10 below freezing is fine.

Dadio

fancyfont · « **Reply #268 on:** September 10, 2009, 10:18:14 PM »

The coldest weather I have ever been in is 18 degrees. Can't imagine -40 degrees. Everything must come to a total halt at that temperature.

Dadio · « **Reply #269 on:** September 10, 2009, 10:28:49 PM »

Not Really!

As they say here "You dress for it".

You plug your car in at night to keep your engine oil warm!

"and then there's what they call the "apres ski" or after skiing."

I'll let you figure that one out!

Dadio

InmemoryofRomeo · « **Reply #270 on:** September 10, 2009, 10:45:59 PM »

I googled neuropathy, there seems to be terribly little research into the problem. I hope that awareness is raised and some more work is put into finding a better solution than narcotics. Apart from their other solution of implanting things into the brain to stop the pain receptors feeling anything

I hope that you can at least manage your symptoms and continue to be a wonderful part of your families life

Dadio · « **Reply #271 on:** September 12, 2009, 07:34:46 AM »

IMR thanks for the good words.

My family and my GOD is why I'm alive today!

When ever I get dark thoughts, they're their with an encouraging thought or deed!

I try and keep busy when they're out and Stoney and you all and other friends are
good to keep me in line.

All in all, I have a great life and I don't mean to complain. Pain is just something
that's there, awake or asleep. It's like air to me I really don't mind. I manage.

But really thanks so much for the interest!

What will your Pleo be doing on the night of Witches and Ghouls???

We know what your two little ghosts are going to be doing!

Actually we don't have Halloween here

So Lilo and Stitch just have to enjoy celebrating online.
