So it's Tuesday and I have no finished garment...boo! I know, I know this is only the 2nd week and I'm already behind. However it just over half the month and it is totally a recoverable condition. Yes I am going to be optimistic :)

I wish I had photos of all the things I've been working on. A convertible mitten for my dad, socks for me, mitts for me, Husband's sweater...and that is just the knitting. I have a shirt I'm working on for me, plus a few Valentine projects and a super cute tute that I'm hoping to have finished by the end of the week! So don't think I'm not doing anything ;)

The problem is I have been running into a few roadblocks...one of which I have absolutely no control over and that is my camera. Last April we bought a new camera...we dropped said camera...camera broke...went to get camera fixed...not covered under warranty...cost to fix=price of new camera...thus we have been without a decent camera for a while. I am borrowing a camera from my dad but the battery is slowly dying that I can hardly take any pictures without needing to charge it, plus it only takes pics when the camera is cold...so much work

Thus I have relied heavily on my cell phone...the cell phone that is um...well slow. Yes, it is new but the technology is really old, 3 years old, so while it does make phone calls, I can text and surf the web... it takes a while...and that includes uploading pics.

So right now I have the techie blues, waiting for enough money to go buy the camera I really want and waiting also for my phone to be eligible for an upgrade. Yes, I do have the techie blues indeed. And the toddler blues...you know the independent 'I do myself' which often turns into screaming and crying because she can't...plus all of a sudden she has decided she doesn't want to use the potty anymore...FRUSTRATING!!!

As you can imagine I've been drinking copious amounts of coffee, trying to craft and still get groceries bought. A household of 7 isn't always easy but it certainly is never boring :)
Way to stay positive! What kind of camera are you looking at?
ReplyDeleteWell I'm looking to get a Cannon Rebel of sorts...I need a good DSLR camera. Then lessons :) I'm hoping to get a good deal on a used or refurbished model. Then come April I'll get a new phone and one prereq is that it has a GOOD camera as it will become my point and shoot for when I'm traveling.
DeleteIn my heart I'm a photographer I just have never invested in it but with the blog the time has come :)
