I was having a great day yesterday. I was casually going through boxes (Yes, I still have boxes of stuff in the abyss), unearthing long forgotten finds, like these vintage velvet roses.
I was grateful for a successful weekend sale. I did this sale, because I missed doing a show the previous week. My van is on it's last legs, and long trips loaded with stuff makes it angry, and rebellious.
I'd had a good night sleep, and my husband picked up these chippy green chairs.
I sat down to do a little work, and, my computer lost it's mind. I don't even know where to begin to explain, but, I wasn't able to access the Internet or much of anything else, and my icons were out of whack. I'm back in, but, things aren't quite "normal". I was told, that it wasn't a virus. I just need to do some clean up. My laptop gets a lot of use, and it's getting old. I need another computer as well.
So, let's see. I need a new computer, another van, and a long vacation. Guess I'd better get back to work.
Hello Rosemary :-) I am happy you had a successful sale over the weekend. Pity I am so far... I wanted some of your treasures. As I am wanting those beautiful roses.
Hoping the computer issues get sorted out.
Awwwww sweet Rosemary! When it rains, it pours! But hey, don't feel too bad...I don't even have a car:) Try Malwarebyte's for your computer, my son got a nasty virus on mine late last year and that was the only thing that worked (plus it's free!).
Glad you had a successful sale.
A new computer - becuase you use it for your work - is going to be awesome.
The way you work so hard you deserve a nice vacation!!!
Love those velvet flowers, Rosemary! It sounds like you've got a never ending treasure trove over there. : ) I'm just back from visiting NY, where I was on a forced withdrawal from the internet. I've got a lot of time to make up for now!
I TOTALLY understand. I wish you lived in Oregon! Would love to come to one of your sales! You have a great eye! (My husband would probably be glad you don't). :) Best wishes for all of your needs and dreams to come true.
LOVE those chairs your hubs picked up. I know you will do something ultra fantastic with them!
I'm sorry to hear about all your craziness but a long vacation sounds nice....I could use one too! I love the chippy green chairs!!
Oh dear, I know that feeling. I am still trying to organize and file photos on my new Mac and I may never get it done. The chairs are darling.
What is that saying, when it rains, it pours...so I hope there is sunshine headed your way!!!...Beautiful things Rosemary...love those chippy chairs!
When it rains it pours for sure! Email me if you want a great computer repair guy. 49.95 and he does it all. We've had him clean out viruses from several of our laptops. He's really good.
I love the green chippy chairs!
Sorry about your computer, computer problems are a real bummer!
Glad your had a good sale, wish I lived closer.
It sounds like you are telling our story! We have 3 cars that are all 19 and 20yrs old.... that's alot of etsy and ebay! Hang in there!
I remember the days when we did not have computer problems. We had typewriter keys that would get stuck, and running out of typewriter ribbon. Hope you get your problems resolved. Love those velvet roses and the chairs.
It's always something.I worry about our 14 year old car.It too is on it's last legs.My husband only drives it back and fourth to work.And our computers are both getting up there.I worry all the time that we will be off to replace them as well.Hope you are enjoying the 4th!
Oh, I hate to hear that! You know you've heard the saying, when it rains it pours? Well, that's probably what is happening to you right now. I'm sure things will get better though. We have some things around our house that need to be replaced and cost a lot of $ too. No fun! But, some things wear out and just have to be replaced. At least the things you need are actually FUN to replace. Getting a new computer or new car/van is more fun than an igniter for an oven and a septic tank field line like we need. LOL!
Love those chair. The perfect vintage green.
Love those chippy chairs! Your husband has a good eye!
That sounds like some week Rosemary.
I'm happy to hear your sales are going strong.
better take that vacation girl!
