Shopping with Harriet

Yes, I am on the helpdesk, but even I misdiagnose problems from time to time. It appears that the socket by my bed is toxic. It killed the converter, not the adapter. The good news is, my wonderful laptop is functioning beautifully. No bad news here.

Here are some pictures of our last shopping trip together. Harriet was trying to decide if she should get a beautiful necklace or not. As I waited, I bought a string of an unusual sapphires.


Harriet had seen some wall hangings that are made out of old wedding sari's. Amazingly beautiful. But she knew that she could get a better deal for them, so we looked at this place. Well, while she was deciding on the necklace, I was shown every wall hanging. I realized that I could take pictures of the wall hangings and decide what I really wanted (or if I really wanted). I think I like the picture best. The wall hanging I fell in love with is $500.00. And what wall to hang it on? It would end up in Adrian's room. He is so worth it, but probably wouldn't care one way or another.

Harriet also looked at chess sets. The carving of the King was of a man on elephant. Elephant had a peacock blue fan on his butt. It was very pretty. I thought my little niece, Maggie, would like to play with that. But I knew the little nephews, Palmer and Torin, would not be as amused. What would they like? And then I found this cow. It's big enough to ride. I could see each of them on the cows back. It would look lovely in Julie and Adam's stand of trees in the back yard. Too bad cost and shipping were a consideration. The little chess piece, on the other hand, would slip nicely in a suitcase.
