I'm dealing with tragic aftermath of man buying me a remarkable surprise bag.
And my not wanting it.:hrmm:
Then saying so. In my usual, blunt way.

Men are hard on the outside.
But can be fragile, emotional marshmallow on the inside.
Tricky.

Also, cat is declining & may not reach Christmas. Despite best efforts/hopes.:sad:

My weekend is less interesting than toilet hunts & new gadgets & sale shopping plans.
Will live vicariously through cool islanders, for a bit.:beach:

I am busy trying to get the new iPad work. It arrived yesterday. Now I have a hard time to get my pages documents from the old to the new device. Ugh. You might remember that my old Mac is too old for the new devices. So, itunes is out. I thought it would be easy to send the documents via mail - but now I am not able to open them in the app. Gah! Why is tech stuff so - annoying? Did not get icloud to work either. [emoji58] I feel so dump right now.
On the bright side: the rosegold is very pretty. [emoji3]

Glad the rose gold is awesome.
Have you tried hooking the iPad to the computer and syncing it with iCloud. Sometime you need to use the annoying cord thingy even tho this is supposed to be modern times.

Sorry to hear about kitty. Always distressing.
Hubbbie and I have vastly different taste in bags.
What kind did he purchase?

Nope, I haven't, because the old Mac does not have iCloud. Never worked with it before. [emoji85] I am now trying to get a newer version of itunes on my old Mac. Hoping he will "speak" with both ipads as soon as I try syncing them. [emoji30]
Main problem is: me (dinosaur) trying to get along with the modern times. [emoji3]

Here are the latest news from tech hell... Mac needs to be upraded on El Capitan, after that we might be able to upgrade on Sierra (the newest system) and then - my devices might talk again with each other.

Just to round up the story. I am at the pub of my cousin, because: no WiFi at home. And thank God until now no one is here apart from me...

Oh, dear. A very tricky situation. Don't blame you one bit for being honest if you don't care for the bag... handbags are such very personal things. But no way possible to do it without him getting his nickers in a twist.
So what's the upshot? Will you keep the bag, or return it? :panic: :panic: :panic:

And so very sorry to hear about your cat. Sounds as though it will be a difficult Christmas. :sad:
