Uh oh - Long weekend! When I arrived home on Friday I discovered that I had no access to the internet or my laptop. Yes - I had the Blue Screen of Death..... It is quite chilling when it occurs, isn't it?
You are minding your own business and then:
Oh No, you think to yourself! How can this be? Should i have avoided:
a) those imploring emails from George Clooney? The ones so obviously related to spam and yet, in my heart, I know that George MUST be trying to reach out to me so I must respond...
b) those emails advising me that if I can only help, I will be the beneficiary of $17M in an inheritance, from some obscure place on the planet. Am I wrong to think they need me or that it is Fred, trying to figure out how to pay for Himself's cavier in the South of France?
c) has my husband disabled all access to the internet so I cannot complete acquisition of last two items on 30% off sale? Say it ain't so..... Nah - he lent me his laptop, so I think I am okay...
But yes, I got the blues and that ain't good, or isn't it? For those with my colouring, blue can be quite lovely... So for this Monday I leave you with some of my style mavens who have made the blues their own and hope to be up and running again on Tuesday!
And finally, the ultimate authority on the blues:
What else did I do this weekend - worked. Though I did do a Julia Child roast chicken which was divine and tried to stay out of trouble. And cleaned and folded sweaters. Oh yes, and then we had a mini-flood. But is is almost November, which makes me think
ONLY 58 DAYS TIL CHRISTMAS!!!
Ooooh - I am going to get hate mail for that one... Remember, I am the eternal optimist!
Stay safe out there and Happy Monday...
