Snow & Ice day note
19 Jan 2019 16:53I decided, somewhat arbitrarily, to spend the day sorting through my photos. In 2017, I dumped all photos/videos into a single folder titled "Pix Purge 2017" with the intention of getting them sorted and organized. I was off to a fairly good start early in the year. Fall of 2017 through... well... basically the present was wracked with medical disasters, so the project juuuuuuuuust *sat* there being sullen and vaguely accusatory.
Today, I started out with about 3000 items in the folder. I am down to 758.
I deleted blurry, bad, and duplicate/triplicate images, put movies into a separate folder, and dumped "keepers" into loosely organized folders to organize in greater detail later (give descriptive titles, choose ones to print!).
I still have 8 sub-folders and 750 photos to get through.
I have learned that A) I TAKE TOO MANY DAMNED PHOTOS and B) I like cats C) I really like fishing, and D) I've basically looked the same my entire life, so stop the pity-party about being fat. GEEZE....
I've got too many pictures, even with culling the bad ones out, but one step at a time is the only way to get anywhere. Maybe I'll see the culmination of this now 2-year project in 2019?
