How I Lost My Blogging Mojo

and am trying to get it back.

It all began when Nick, my IT guy ,made a new lovely computer for me and then updated it to Windows 7.

Previously I had been totally in the blogging groove and had gotten comfortable with Windows Live Writer to quickly whip out a post and add pictures.

And now it is all different although somewhat similar and my non techy brain requires a steep learning curve before I can figure this whole thing out.

Next came the great flood of 2012 in which all but 1 road to our was cut off by flooding and that road was iffy with high water and down to a single lane because half of it fell apart.

Then Nick left on a 2 week journey east for his father’s funeral. You can read about his adventures on his blog –The Mechanical Philosopher

During this time I was the temporary single Mom. And then sadly a good friend’s husband passed away. So Nick and I were both attending funeral’s at opposite sides of the country during the same period of time.

I added a new Little Celtic Heart Sterling Silver Shawl Pin to our shop .

And a Little Celtic Tree Sterling Silver Shawl Pin.

And a Large Celtic Copper Hair Pin or Shawl Pin.

And a few other things that I am too lazy to add to this messed up blog.

We finally took the long overdue leap and signed up to Stamps.com so that we can do online shipping. It’s been a challenge trying to create a new shipping system and I already have sent the wrong order to the wrong person.But I think I’m getting the hang of it.

So that’s my exciting life’s update. Damn you windows 7 for taking me back to the beginning of learning how to blog again! (Maybe my next post will have my pictures all crammed together on the other side of the page.)
