I have a new camera!!

I finally finished researching digicams and found what I wanted for the price I was willing to pay. Drove over to the local big-box electronics store and picked one up, in addition to buying a new PDA. Just have to knuckle down and read over the camera brochure before I'm up and clicking--so exciting to have a new toy.

I've also been carding more sock batts and putting them up on Etsy. Long hours standing at the drum carder, but it's fun to see the colors develop. I've saved one Lunaria colorway for myself as I need some black/cream dress socks and these will certainly fill the bill. BTW, I've been blessed with a good fiber friend who now carries my fiber and sock yarns in her store. If you're in the Pittsburgh area, stop in to Natural Stitches and pick up my stuff without having to pay S&H charges.

Off to play with the new gadgets.....

I finally made it

Finally found my way into blogdom after retiring from my job, getting my life re-organized around having the time to do WHAT I WANT (shouting cause it feels good to do WHAT I WANT and not what's required of me), and hunting down a host I liked. And having the courage to actually post. No photo of me yet, as the Kodak decided to freeze up on me. Paid $20 for a new battery, charged it, and the camera still doesn't work. Will cost $125 + $48 shipping just to have them look at it. Decided to use hubby's Nikon, only to have the battery go dead on it. Now that $40 battery is charging so that hopefully I can finish my photos tomorrow. I simply must update my Etsy page with all the new spinning fiber I made last week and it's making me nuts to wait for a little bit of metal in a battery wrapper to charge up.
