we're going to my mom and dad's tonight as my cousin is in town with her whole family and we're having a big dinner together. my camera totally malfunctioned and erased all of this week's pictures!!! i'm so unhappy about that! the pic above is from tuesday and is a lovely wildflower from our garden in the courtyard. unfortunately, i don't think it's going to open as it's suddenly cold outside and it doesn't get enough sun. (!) we really planted the poor seeds way too late. (sigh). hopefully, next spring we'll be more timely! have a good weekend.by day the blue will pale down into white where it touches the white of the land, after sunset it has a new circumference-orange, melting upwards into tenderest purple. but the core of blue persists, and so it is by night. then the stars hang like lamps from the immense vault. the distance between the vault and them is as nothing to the distance behind them, and that farther distance, though beyond colour, last freed itself from blue. -e.m. forster (a passage to india)

I'm so sorry about your camera. Do you have to replace it? These digital cameras seem to break more easily.
ReplyDeleteWe also planted our seeds too late and didn't get to harvest as many vegetables as we would have liked. Maybe next spring . . .
hello eva, our flower has not opened after all. yes, we are all determined to get things in the ground earlier next year!
ReplyDeletemy camera is fine! i pressed the reset button by accident when i was re-taping the batteries in place. my camera is from 2001, and i had it repaired once (my fault . . i dropped it on an icy bench) and the repairman commented on how it was a good model. thus, i've been hesitant about getting a new one. i figure the new ones might not be as well made as my old one! i do need to find a time one day to repair the battery door. a little chip broke off and now it only stays closed with "gorilla" tape!
I;m so glad your camera isn't broken. It's always sad when it is too expensive to repair an old camera and you have to get a new one.
ReplyDeleteoooohhhh and it's sad when it's too expensive to repair an old washing machine (!). . i so much prefer to repair the old . . our dishwasher busted a few months ago. we had already spent $150 on a new pump about two years ago . . so i guess we'll probably wait now and get a new one one of these days. i can't even get the repairman that i like to come downtown to look at it! he lives in the bronx and only works up there now. well, he is a bit elderly . . i haven't found a trustworthy repair guy to replace him yet.
