We might have to try something else, maybe if I print them out, then scan them in, then transfer them to a file. . . . . being computer illiterate I don't even know if that will work.
Oh, has anyone ever heard that old wives tale:
"For every stitch you sew on Sunday, you'll rip out two on Monday"? Well, I'm not sure if it's true or not but things sure have gone wrong today. In addition to being unable to upload pix, I've some how had small pieces of fabric get between the layers that I'm sewing (twice), I've had to rip out several seams and to top that off, I had my ironing board at chair level so that I could just turn and press and accidentally touched my right boob with the iron. I now know why grandma got rid of her wringer washer. Maybe I should quit for the day.

And Karen, yeah, that's why I'm online and not sewing. Got my burn ointment on, my nightie on, and I'm going to bed pretty soon. Tomorrow has to be better.

Okay, I'm hoping this will work, I had to print, then scan, then open with Explorer, copy and paste but we'll see if they come through.
I've heard the song "Funky Town" and I've even heard the song "Who Let the Dogs Out" but let's face it, both of those came along WAY after my time. I'd like to, if it's okay with everyone, add an oldie to the CD collection. Will it be alright with everyone if we travel back in time a ways? Back to one of my personal favorites? Say go as far back as maybe Elvis? And then maybe one of his greatest hits: "Jail House Rock"?

The one I did other than Elvis was one that is personally appropriate---the nut house. It's hard to see in the pix but the bottom of the house is mixed nuts.
