Bloggie Bloggerson

December 6, 2010

I am feeling good today.  Well, actually I am feeling sore--but I feel like I can actually talk without a lump in my throat coaxing me to start crying.  Progress.  Not to mention all of the wonderful notes, texts, emails, calls and comments I have received rooting me on to recovery.  I am getting there.  My hand started blistering today, and although that made it a lot more sore (and disgusting), I know that means it is on it's way to healing.  As for our car...we still haven't heard if it is totaled or not--so it is NOT on its way to recovery, or anywhere, fast. :(

In addition to all of your notes of hope today--something else really helped me forget about all my trouble and my pain (I believe those are lyrics) ---meet my Bloggie!

  

It's our new, little, handy camcorder.  It has a touch screen and a pop-out usb for easy uploading.  Records in HD and takes pictures, too!  Plus, it is called Bloggie...which is right up my alley and actually  exactly what I refer to our blog as in conversation with Chris:  i.e. "I updated the bloggie today!"  (Our blog is even bookmarked as "bloggie")...me and this camera, we were meant to be together.  And, not to brag or anything, but we made a profit buying this camera.  Check it.  Our last camera, we bought last Christmas as our only Christmas gift--Chris was starting a brand new job, we were moving and SUPER poor, but we were having a baby and we NEEDED a camera.  We ended up getting a nice, modest JVC one that turned out to be not the greatest quality as you can attest to by watching any of our videos.  Most recently: here.  After watching that video, we realized that something had to change.  We put our camera up for sale online and got a lot of calls about it right away.  We sold it in less than a week.  We still had a little over $100 on our RC Willey gift card that we won, so we combined that with some of our earnings from selling our camera and, Bloggie entered the fam--plus pocketed some extra Christmas cash.

I am hoping to be able to deliver better pictures and videos of all the stuff I do around here, fingers crossed.  Although, tomorrow's project I already captured completely with screen shots (gotta love command+shift+4 on a mac)--get ready for a you-can-definitely-do-it-yourself project.
