I broke my camera. Had a little cry. Tried to fix it. Failed. Then the best part, found a new used model that's only taken 1000 shots. She arrives Friday. Compatible with the lenses I already own.
This is my happy dance.
You can't see me but I'm smiling and doing the happy chair wiggle as I type. AND, I got a call from the appliance store and they gave me 400 smackers off the a new scratch 'n' dent washer. Not sure when that arrives. I'll know more soon when I go pay for it.
Not too shabby.
And that my Boogerbutts, is all that's fit to print.
Thanks for reading and boogie boogie.
PS: Alex asked about getting camera fixed and reselling it. I forgot to add, the video side of the camera works well. Should the shutter get fixed, I'll still keep both cameras because I'm at the point where having two cameras is gonna be sooooo helpful. One for just video, already set up and the other to go on macro walks and other projects.
Exciting stuff!
Thanks for Alex or asking the question.
Sorry you broke the camera! Would someone be able to fix and sell it for you?
ReplyDeleteThis is my bad, I forgot to add. The video recording part of the camera works so I'll keep this one in the kitchen. Then if by chance the shutter gets fixed, then I'll keep it as a backup camera. I'm at the stage now where I have use for two cameras running at once. Pretty cool. Thanks, Alex!
DeleteYAY~ happy dance for you.. i had two cameras and you are right. I also had bob to carry one or both of them while i used my cell.. ha ha now i have no camera and no bob to carry them, but i do have a Samsung Android cell to take photos of dumb stuff on our 100 x 100 lot with our 1350 sq foot jail house.
ReplyDeleteMy dad died in that nurshing home, back then it was a wonderful place to put beloved family. before it sold to the money hungry HCA company. Daddy loved that hall and he and i would HOLD COURT outside under the trees, to the same 6 people every day, they were all my family... just like him. one of them let the squirrels climb her leg and eat out of her hand. the trees were full of bird, the courtyard full of growing flower. now the doors to the courtyard have padlocks on them. they have to keep an aid out there to have it open. cut that pay and save a few dollars. i am pondering how you broke the shutter
I can see where a broken camera can be devastating - even me with just my iPhone camera I would be lost and would have to replace it immediately! Heck with the phone, I only want the camera! Have fun with your new washer!
ReplyDeleteOh no!! my heart sank for a bit there. so glad you found a back up and at a great deal. woo hoo. a blessing for sure!
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry to hear that. When something is as precious and useful as a camera breaks, that's a huge deal. Heard your heart break with it, didn't you? Glad you got a new one coming though!
