More camera trouble

It seems that I am doomed to have camera trouble this summer. I have pictures to show you and I can't. One minute my point and shoot was working fine and the next kaput. The way they make cameras anymore you just have to buy another one because it costs just as much to fix the one you have. So, I have ordered one and it should be here next week and the exciting part is that it has all these new features on it. I hope it is not too complicated. I love technology but I have the hardest time figuring it out. Anyway, I got out my SLR and took the pictures I wanted to show you and then the card reader I have broke yesterday too. What is going on around here? All that to say, you will have to wait to see the new journal pages, birthday celebration photos and my new tomatoes.

I'm not a gardener and so this year I planted four kinds of tomatoes in pots. My first tomatoes where picked yesterday and tasted soooo good. I am going out of town and have thought of taking them with me but that might seem a little weird. Carting around four large potted plants into the hotel.

The other breaking news, hot off the presses, is that my grandbaby finally gave me a name. He has refused to call me anything except mama. Then out of the blue, this week, he started calling me Mimi. It is the cutest thing and melts my heart when he comes running with arms out wide yelling "Mimi, Mimi, up!" Oh, what joy is found in the arms of a chubby faced child who loves his Mimi :)
