Wow! Two days in a row. I am really on a roll for writing this week. Well, yes, I do know that today is only Tuesday and it really is tempting the writer's muse to state my intentions for my writing so early in the week. But I feel like flying in the face of danger at the moment! And why not, I have pictures to share! I walked through the fires of downloading the camera hell and survived to tell the tale. My laptop did not come with one of the marvelous SD ports. My desktop, which has an SD port, refuses to connect to the internet; never mind that there is currently something wrong with the router this was way before the wireless trauma of late summer. I love my camera. It takes fabulous pictures. I have had it for over three years now. There is no telling where the USB cable is. I went to Best Buy yesterday to find a replacement cable. Seems likely that such a simple purchase would make my life easier. NO! The cable is too old or too funky or too something and they offered this cool substitute. I now have an external SD port which connects to my laptop or any other computer with a USB port. Unfortunately there is something within my laptop that says it does not want any new program data downloaded to it. Additionally I could not get any program to recognize the pictures! I gave up and watched a movie. I would recommend watching The Spiderwick Chronicles it was a fun lighthearted movie. Definitely changed my mood from the computer fuss. So how did I manage to get photos for today? A flash drive and the desktop computer with the magical SD port! I could have done that before but didn't. No excuses there just not interested in the upstairs-downstairs game.

This is the beautiful Celie. A bit out of focus though. Here she is relaxing and proving that she really is a girl!
These are the Victorian Lace Shawl I made and finally blocked! Lesson here is to have a large enough bed or free floor space for blocking. I had extra shawl over the edge of the queen size bed!
What are these pictures of yarn for? Well, the rust red is the Sweater Girl for Kam that I mentioned a couple of weeks ago. The other is my hand spun mohair. I have started a scarf/stole using this yarn but am not sure which it will be until it is blocked, I am suspicious it will be growing in width!

More pictures next time! I have SOCKS to show off. Now how exciting is that pictures of socks and feet wearing socks! Try not to hyperventilate!
