Have you ever had one of those days where you had the day all planned and there seemed to be evil forces trying to keep you from completing your tasks? I had one yesterday. It started off on track. I got my oil changed in my car. I mailed off the new sofa to it's new owner. (I just love mailing products out!). Stopped by a few stores and picked up some items to do some projects for the upcoming beach video. All in all, a great start.
Well, one of my "To Do" items involved fixing my camera. The little button in the battery compartment broke off and the battery won't stay in. The memory card is also having trouble staying in. Seems easy enough to fix, but no luck on my part. Since they are both spring loaded, it is not as simple as putting a piece of tape over the door. Buying a new camera is definitely not in my budget! Did I mention, this one's warranty expired 2 months ago. After looking at new cameras, I decide I will have to fix my camera myself. Well, it took me quite some time to get something that would work. Let's just say electrical tape was involved. I will still have to get a new camera soon, but for now I can still function. I do have a back up camera, but it is old, and the images aren't as crisp.
I decided to start on my sewing projects. I was really excited to get some new things sewn for the ladies beach trip. Would you believe the sewing machine was acting up! I know it is not the machine. It was definitely operator error, but nothing I did would work. I knew then that it was time to shut it down for the night and start over tomorrow. Somebody just didn't want me to finish that list and have that wonderful feeling of accomplishment. That's alright. Today is a new day!
I did manage a few pictures about 11pm last night. They are not the greatest because at that late hour I was not setting up all those lights.

This is a little knitted dress I bought at the local Miniature Store for $8.50. It will look cute with tights and shoes.
Danielle saw this table at the Miniature store for $15.
She thought it was perfect for the boys to do their work and crafts. She's in the process of transforming their room into a big boys room. So that means no more "Winnie the Pooh".
By the way, the beach house is coming along splendidly! Won't be long before I can start shooting.
