I'm armless!

Well nearly.....
I've got a trapped nerve in my neck which is playing havoc with my neck, arm and shoulder.
The pain is quite intense at times and is inhibiting me crafting!
Not a happy bunny.
It's even stopping me typing for too long as my arm really hurts in that position. That's one reason I've been quiet this past week or two. I'm seeing the physiotherapist at last and hope she sorts it out soon. I thought I had a frozen shoulder at first, as I can barely move my arm without wincing.




Right!! That's enough moaning from me.
On the camera front! Thanks for all your input which was greatly appreciated, but didn't help at all. LOL (You all had different ideas).
So I did what I usually do, I consulted the feedback on different cameras on Amazon, then when I found one with all the stars coloured in, I shot off to ebay and bagged meself a bargain.
I got a Sony Cybershot DSC-W30 for £31.51. It includes a battery charger and a 512mb memory card! It has loads of options that I haven't figured out yet. (That means reading the destructions, and I only do that when all else fails). :0)




On the card front, well I HAVE made a card or two,
but can't show 'em you yet!!
Oooh!! a Mystery! Hee Hee. All will be revealed in a few days.
All I can say for now is, it's very exciting, so please be patient. ;0)

Thanks for sticking with me. Viv xxx

I need your help!

I'm looking for a new (inexpensive), digital camera and I'd like to know what camera you would recommend.
My trusty Toshiba PDR M25 is giving up the ghost slowly but surely.
The colours aren't as true as they could be either.
Which one do you use to take pictures of your cards?
I need one that doesn't cost the earth, gives true colours and is easy to operate.
HELP!!!
I need a boost too as I've had a rotten week and I'm feeling all sorry for myself.
I've had no time, or energy, to make any cards and if I don't get a fix, I get all grumpy.
It's mostly been hospital, doctor, physiotherapist, clinic appointments, shopping. (For Mum)!!!
I've been to hers every day this week for one thing or another.

I'm going to have a day off from everything tomorrow and just PLAY!!!
I've posted a new photo in my profile too. took it today. What do you reckon?
Well, it's getting late and I'm tired.
Let's see what tomorrow brings eh?
Look forward to your comments about which camera to choose!

Thanks for stopping by. Viv xx
