I’m learning that patience pays off. And, persistence. And, maybe a little pluckiness, too. I totally am not going to lie. I used a thesaurus to get that alliteration.
I’m in love with a typewriter. There, I’ve said it. It’s probably the only thing that gets as many loving glances as Thomas.
I found the vintage typewriter I’ve been looking for. I even haggled the price down $10. Getting pretty plucky, aren’t I?
So, I mean to use it for some scrap booking projects as well as some wedding details {and ambiance!}.
It’s in perfect condition; just needed a little cleaning.
Who knows? Maybe I’ll even get that novel typed up and sent off….
I had one in France for typing papers because I needed accents and hate writing things out long hand but it ended up being completely broken in just a few short weeks of pounding away. So I wrote it all out long hand! Just like every other student (because no one, and I mean no one, types things up in uni in France).
I can't believe how hard I have to punch the keys! My fingers will surely get a workout 🙂 I can SO imagine you in France using a typewriter!
I was at a wedding last weekend and they had everyone type their entries into the guest book on an old typewriter. It was so cute! I didn't mess up too bad either LOL
So wedding and dress huh? In the same sentence? You should email me.
Beautiful typewriter! I love a typewriter, too. I bought a vintage Royal portable this year, and I adore it for writing poetry.
P.S. I'm excited to see you on the NaBloPoMo list! Are you a regular? This is my first month. It's neat to see someone I "know" on there.
I'm so glad you let me know you're participating! I've done NaBloPoMo a few times every November since I started blogging in 2006. It's always a STRUGGLE as I never seem to think my content is interesting enough but I hope it's something I'll get better at. Looking forward to reading your posts!
wedding and dress in the SAME sentence. will write more soon!
