I want blow flies!!...

2 August 2007

..... I was thinking about it today....I just love that weather... where it is warm...a slight warm breeze and if you dont shut the door a blow fly will buzz inside....I actually hate the blow fly bit...but its that weather that Im after... ohhh...hurry...roll on summer!!...and I know we need rain...so roll on warm summer evening thunder storms.... bliss!

...ok...what else is on my mind...

* My computer is giving me grief.... it has a HD with less than 5% space remaining...so I bought an external HD...this I thought would allow me to transfer all my photos...removing them from my HD... freeing up much wanted space....I didn't bargain for the external HD to keep losing files...corrupting files...and then faulting my computer so that it needed restarting all the time...only to have it now lose the USB port connection totally!!
I was so upset the last few days...wanting to upload DT projects to the Scrapboxx ...and not being able to upload anything from my camera.... you never realise how important Mr USB is... until he is gone.
So as I was be-moaning this to a friend today she suggested I give her 'Computer Fix-it' guy a call...I'm thrilled to say ...he is coming on Monday... yay!

* I'm not sure if I ve mentioned this before on my Blog...but...we are building a HOME!!....I'm very excited.... the land is all ours.... and the house plans are in at council...awaiting approval... I just cant wait for it to be started... so today as whilst I was shopping ...my supermarket gave me these..... .... free tree seeds....with the dirt and tube included.... they will apparently be about 10cm tall by Christmas... perfect trees for my new garden...

...oh...and while I was shopping I called in to the 'Cancer charity shop'...and picked up a few bargains...this gorgeous fabric.... a hand worked doily and some bias binding and ric rac... I often take things in there as a donation...but just lately I seem to be buying and bringing more things home....sorry ...only a quick update tonight....
