OMG!! LOOK WHAT I JUST GOT FOR A MOTHERS DAY PRESSIE!!




Hello ladies..
Well whilst sitting at my little "possie" at the front of the house doing my "ebaying" on my laptop I noticed a TNT delivery van pull up out the front...

My immediate thought was what has MR CHRISTIAN (21 yo son) bought now?? no doubt with MY credit card....lol..

Well!!
it was FOR ME....from MR Byron...(eldest son)...
a mother's day pressie...in a big cardboard box...WHAT IS IT??

I AM TOTALLY gobsmacked...

I am NOW the NEW OWNER OF AN "APPLE" widescreen laptop computer!!


YEP...that is what Mr B bought me as a pressie for mothers day....

I had been whingeing & whining to him for ages about how my current computer keeps shutting down every two minutes!! slight exaggeration!!...

Cannot do what I kind of know i could do artistically speaking??...


SO I now AM totally terrified that I have to learn NEW technology...


BUT I AM assured by BOTH byron & hubby (who has several MAC computers)...THAT.....

I SHALL BE A NEW WOMAN...(blog/ebay site/own web site etc)...

SO STAY TUNED & see how I cope with MY NEW FANCY LAPTOP COMPUTER...

I have my new business name registered...
"The Vintage Hatbox"...
so ALL i need now is the confidence...the drive....the GUTS ...to GET GOIN!!!
xx andrea..

ps...still petrified though!!

I seriously breathed a sigh of relief when I scrolled down and saw the laptop... I thought someone had bought you an orange and white van!
Get stuck into it Andrea, the thing I find about technology is the longer I put it off the bigger the hurdle gets in my head.
You lucky thing!
