Why?!

Remember my happy space last week? It is slightly less happy this week, because my brand new, I absolutely love it computer froze, then died. Yup! It came with a corrupted file and refuses to work now. As you can imagine, I am less than pleased. It means that my keeping up on blog reading and emails will go to pot again because I will have to use the shared by all extra computer that isn't in any space that I inhabit on a daily basis. Upstairs in the office, away from my sewing, and cooking, and relaxing space. My laptop has to go back to the manufacturer for fixing or replacing. Who knows when I will see it again.

So, I hope you understand but I am in a mood. Being in a mood does not preclude sewing though. I shall show you a photo of what I accomplised this morning.


That would be 84 HSTs all cut, sewn and trimmed. Half of what I require. Things are happening around here. Just not on the computer.

  4. What a stinker of a thing to happen! I'd be annoyed too ...

    At least you achieved something in the sewing stakes. I have 81 postage stamp blocks to trim tomorrow but seeing as how you had some practice today maybe you can pop over and give me a hand?

  8. The HSTs are great. I am pretty much a Luddite and technology generally doesn't like me either!

  9. I just can't believe your crap computer luck. Here's hoping a replacement comes quickly!

    Your HSTs are looking delish!

  16. What a bummer - on the plus side you will probably get so much more done. I find I while away too much time on the computer. Love all the colours in your HST too.

  20. Now that IS annoying, but well done on the HSTs! Xx

  21. Chin up! All will be better soon! Besides those HSTs are perfectly happy!

  22. Gosh that just makes you want to cry doesn't it! It takes some of the shiny glamour and giddy excitement of the "new" away, but while your blog reading/commenting will suffer, it gives you more time for sewing, with less distractions, right??
    And those hst's are stunning! So vibrant against the grey.

  23. Sorry about the 'puter problems! but I just love that little pile of trimmings!It is somehow a very satisfying sight!

  24. Down with computers! The HSTs are excellent though. Maybe you could instigate some form of offline blogging (you could send Polaroids of your sewing endeavours and people could mail you notes back letting you know how lovely they are)?

  25. Grrr to broken laptops. Grrr to HSTs too, lol. Pretty though!

    ReplyDelete
  26. Oh my those HST's are beautiful! Computers can be so, so frustrating!!!

    ReplyDelete
  27. Ooh pretty! I missed your happy space (I think) but glad you had one. Sorry to hear about the computer - really, if these things happen in the first 28 days they shouldn't be fixed, they should just be replaced!!

  28. no wonder you are in a mood .. Im amazed you can type and string sentences to gether I would be LIVID Hope the manufacturers get their bums in gear and fix it QUICK!!!

  29. Trimming would not make me any happier if I was you! Sorry to hear about your computer, I feel your pain. I'm still waiting to hear if my pyromaniac brand new sewing machine is ever coming back to me...

  30. if it makes you feel any better I am still using my daughters "2 lap tops ago" which keeps crashing. I got a new windows surface for Christmas but the extension lead is too small, it is too complicated, the screen is too small etc etc. Don't tell my husband though, he would be so hurt.
    ps love the hsq collection

  31. your hsts are beautiful and the trimmings too! it's hard not to have a love/hate relationship with technology.

  32. Oh no! Hope you haven't lost anything. I hate having to use less efficient computers.
