An Update, a Rose, and a Video

I'm overdue in giving you an update on my Outlook problems. The old Outlook file was not able to be salvaged, at least without spending the money that Microsoft wanted for repairing it. So I just created a new Outlook account and a new .pst file to go with it. Everything is working fine now. There was no change to my email address. The only downside was that all data that had been saved in the old file was lost. Only time will tell how significant that loss will turn out to be.
Thanks to all of you who offered tips and support. You're the best!

Here's a rose for you:

  
I need to confess that I had nothing to do with this photograph. My friend, Pat, took the picture of this Double Delight rose, given to her by a friend who grew it. Pat very creatively placed the rose in front of her darkened television screen to achieve the black background. Isn't it just a beautiful rose? And Pat says its fragrance is "out of this world."

In closing, I thought I'd just share a cute video clip showing how pets, especially cats, like to try to fit themselves into small spaces. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

  1. Hi Linda, firstly, I am glad that you got the issues with Outlook sorted out...and hope that you have no long lasting bad effects. That is a lovely flower that your friend Pat took a photo of! I really enjoyed the video, a beautiful and sweet way to end my day. Thank you so much for the update, the flower and the video.

  5. I saw that sweet video yesterday.. Sent it to my friend Mildred who loves cats... So cute.

    Double Delight is one of our favorite roses.... So beautiful!

    Glad you got a new account--but sorry you lost everything on the old one... Scary. I'd hate to lose the emails I have stored on my mail program...

    Hugs,
    Betsy

  6. I'm glad you have Outlook behaving itself now, but it's too bad about the lost emails you had saved. Pat did a great job photographing the rose. I also enjoyed the video.

  8. I had to laugh while watching the video, Linda. Some sequences are gorgeous and stuck to my mind. :)

    Pat had a good idea to place the rose in front of the black screen, it highlighted it beautifully. Once I read about this tip in a book on photography, they just recommended a black or white paper put behind a flower, as appropriate.

    It's great that you found a solution to your problem and can use your e-mail again. I save e-mails that I want to keep separately, out of Outlook, looks like a good option now.

  11. The rose photo is beautiful......and so pleased to hearthat your computer issue is solved. L_O_V_E_D the video....sadly the curiosity of tight places is what ends the life of many cats. They get in places they can not get out of. :( Have a nice relaxing L.D. weekend.

  13. Oh the rose is lovely. It just pops out of your page with its own black background and your page background.

    How I adore cats. They never fail to find a way to make themselves smaller. Watching the pups try the same is a hoot.
