super batteries

So, the old HP digital camera that the kids now use as their own totally eats AA batteries. Or rather did, until PaGee gave us some of the new Energizer lithium AA's at Christmas. The ones that we put in the camera during the holidays JUST NOW TODAY DIED! Now this would be pretty astounding if this camera was used normally but this camera is not used normally. Paul uses this camera 50 pictures at a time about twice a week. Most of his pictures are purposefully of his feet, fingers, eye, computer, windows and furniture so once he fills the camera (it holds 70 on high resolution) I then have to display them all on the camera screen to delete them one by one. One by one since every once in a while he takes a really good picture or else Giselle got a hold of it and took some good ones. Unfortunately, Paul has learned to delete pictures too and earlier today he deleted about 20 good pictures. Oh well, easy come easy go.
