For those of you that have not heard, my computer somehow lost all my blogging pictures ! I just don't have the heart to start over . . . so I am going to sign off for awhile. I want to thank all my faithful followers, I have enjoying getting to know you so much. Blogging was something that I never thought I would ever do, but to my surprise , I found that I liked it very much.
I am in the process of doing some updating in my house, the stone wall in the foyer, a few things in the master bedroom and the family room. I am sure I will want to share these projects when I am done, so I will be around from time to time. I will also want to show up dated photos of my little tater bug . . . so bear with me. I have started a new file, and when I get enough images to continue, I may post again from time to time.
Again, thanks everyone. Vicky
Oh no! Aren't they save in your online Picasa album? i.e. http://picasaweb.google.com/home

We will be here!~ Your gardens and grounds are wonderful, and I look forward to your own projects...that really sucks your files are gone, I would be upset...but what can you do? Throw the computer out the window lol!!~
ReplyDeleteWell you've left us with some great pictures for now! What beautiful outdoor spaces you have.
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to your return~
ReplyDeleteOh, Vicky! I'm sorry you lost all your pictures! You know, maybe there's possibility they may reappear.
ReplyDeleteI do hope you'll continue to blog when you can.
Be a sweetie,
Shelia :)
Vicky, I shall miss you! Do come back soon.
ReplyDeleteSpring, lucky, here it's late autumn.
ReplyDeleteVicky, this is just killing me. I don't want to be out of touch with you. I know we don't really know eachother but you have been so supportive to me and my journey into blogland. I will miss your post. I hope this is just a new beginning of blogging in a different manner for you. Please don't be a stranger, come by and visit so I know you are still around, Hugs Kathysue

Vicky,
ReplyDeleteI'm glad to hear you're not giving up blogging altogether. I'll be here waiting to see your projects and Tater updates. Come by and visit soon. I'm going to miss you as you have been so supportive to me.
Love from your "style maker" friend, Delores
PS Your garden is gorgeous and I love seeing the photos of your home. You DO have a lot to show us of your home and garden. Keep posting!
Dear Vicky,
ReplyDeleteCan't imagine losing my photos ... or beginning all over again! Thinking of you today and wishing you a happy weekend.
Dearest Vicky,
ReplyDeleteYour garden and surrounding grounds are lovely!!! This was special to see your place. Perhaps after your break you will return with a different angle that will surprise even you.
I am very sorry about the loss of your blog pictures...I am very sorry.
Please have a relaxing and refreshing week-end.
God bless and hope you return soon,
d
Oh Vicky I am so sorry this has happened to you. Your pictures are gorgeous! I love the last one of the road. I do hope you return soon, as we will all be here waiting!
ReplyDeleteThinking of you~
Dearest Vickky-girl~~~
ReplyDeleteThis is a "COMMO CHECK"... (I recently wrote y'all a lonnng letter & it WOULDN'T go thru! If THIS does, I will try writing again in just a minute!!!)..................
So much to tell you... so much to thank you for... YOU ARE ADMIRED & ADORED~~~pleeease remember this!!!
Hopefully, I'll "be right back"!
Love and warmest & most sincere of hugs,
Linda in AZ *
Hi Vicky,
ReplyDeleteI didn't know about your computer...but am so sorry...that is frustrating! I will miss you on your blog break...come back soon! Your photos are so pretty! You surely live in a beautiful spot!
Take care!
Laura
Will be waiting for your return Vicky. Your garden and yard are always so breathtaking....Christine
ReplyDelete*** iT DID IT again!!!! The computer "CUT ME OFF" after allll that typing--- just like that! (Maybe my letter was toooo lonnnnng??? Oh, sugar crumbs!)~~~
ReplyDeleteI CAN'T write all that AGAIN, explaining everything ALLLLL over AGAIN (for the third time!), so please just know I am STILL recovering (had a relaps causing several adjusments to my/our life~... it's just going to take ALOT longer to recover from my accident & surgery than we thought! Again, crappola!!!...
PLEASE KNOW THAT I, & everyone else who adores you AND YOUR BLOG, that you are appreciated, admired & respected... (& you already KNOW I personally ADORE you!)~
MAYBE you can look at this disconcerting "siuation" as "TIME for VICKY" ~~~ regroup, have fun, do the projects that you enjoy AND where you'll quickly be able to enjoy the results... go out for lunch with old friends, enjoy Tater Tot's baby-days more, cook less and eat out more with hubby... drink champagne with strawberries for breakfast one Sunday, etc... YOU'VE EARNED IT!!!
Thennnnnnn, come back all refreshed & renewed~~~you deserve THAT, too!
Much love,
Linda (in AZ*)

So sorry you lost all your photos, that would be so disappointing.
ReplyDeleteI will miss checking out all your inspiring photos but I hope you will be back soon.
Take care,
Carolyn
I am going to miss my Vicky fix!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteHowever, it's all about living. So go and enjoy your garden (I would if I had a spread like yours!) And dote on your little man; I would! We all know how fast those years go. I hope if you'll stop in and say hello to me every now and then, and let me know how it's all going. warmly, -susan (p.s. i, too, thought i had lost some photos. i didn't find them until my daughter loaded everything onto an external hard drive. she advised that i do that to protect my files. anyway, lo-and-behold, i found what i had spent some time looking for....So, perhaps yours is there -- somewhere.)
NOOOOOOOOOO!!! I am so very sorry to hear this happened...another bloggy friend told me it happened to her...so bizarre and insanely frustrating I can imagine.
ReplyDeleteThe images above are breathtaking!!! Please show us your projects and updates as you can and of course stop by from time to time and say hello.
I will miss you!
XOXO,
~Rebecca
Please come back when you are ready. I really have enjoyed your blog.
ReplyDeletehugs
Sissie
Yes, please come back soon, Vicky. I wish I could live in a place like yours...my idea of heaven.
ReplyDeletePut your pics on a flash drive ASAP. This will save you the misery if you lose anything on your computer. I have all my jewelry photos on both discs and a flash drive. It's so easy.

ReplyDeleteI'll leave you on my sidebar and keep an eye out for anything new from you. In the meantime, enjoy your life "computer free". I've been tempted to ditch it all myself a time or two, but I have to sit here to work every day anyway so I might as well blog a little while I'm at it. Enjoy your family and your projects!
Hurry Back.....I will miss you...Pat H
ReplyDeleteI'll be checking back because I've enjoyed your blog and learned a lot, and I hope sometime soon you'll be back. I'm so sorry about your images.. I hope if there is anyone who can retrieve them you'll find them, but if not then I sympathise. Enjoy your garden, it looks stunning...
ReplyDeleteOh no.....wellllll, I'll be waiting in YOUR garden with Linda from Limes and Coconuts and we'll pull weeds while we are waiting.
ReplyDeletexx
Hi: I just happened on your blog today and saw your comment re. losing all your pictures. Well, the very same thing happened to me last June! I lost ALL my pictures, and of course, Blogger has no help whatsoever. I switched to Typepad, even got the most expensive plan, found someone to help me redesign it, and couldn't be happier! Typepad offers lots of support, so this would NEVER happen there. I also recommend getting your own domain!
ReplyDeleteGood luck....
You will be very missed but I hope you enjoy your Tator bug and the projects you will be working on! Your irises are lovely..i miss having irises and would love to have some in our yard someday! :0) I posted about our handmade wood flooring if your interested:0)
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear that! But I know you will enjoy your blogging break while puttering in that beautiful garden, I'm sure!
ReplyDeleteWe just had snow here...ack!!
Take care,
Linda
What???? seriously? did you have someone look at your hardrive? that seems impossible!!!! get a professional to look at it to salvage it - nothing is truly LOST, ever - it's all there somewhere. please!!!!!
