the video that did not happen

meant to film a video for my website today, borrowed a camera, wrote a script and everything.

the day started with me hitting my business partner, boomer,in the head with a fly-a-way bungee cord.

she had barley recovered from that little maneuver when i caught 3 fingers and nearly broke them in the same bungee cord. it took both of us way too long to release my hand. why all the bungee cords you ask……because we are selling jewelry in a gale force wind. and why the funny typing and no capitol letters…because my computer keyboard quit working today,too…..

so on to a little brunch break for sunny while boomer waits on customers….suddenly i am choking. terrified, i pull on boomer`s shirt.  she gives me a `can`t you see i`m busy with a client look` and turns away. frantically, i grab her shirt and point to my throat.  she asks if i am all right and i shake my head`no`.  at this time my world starts to go sparkly white and then starts fading to black. boomer is yelling `somebody help us` but also doing the Heimlich on me. it worked.

but we decided this was not the day we wanted to capture for posterity on video, unless it would be titled `the keystone cops sell rhinestones.

even tho we had a busy day we did take a lot of pix of our stuff and it is in our catalog on our website; www.sunnymarie.com on our `items` page. please check it out.

    Sunny, I’m sure glad you survived the day. Video not of the greatest importance on a crazy day like you guys had. We’ll catch up with you on video on a better day.

  2. Holy Moly Sunny, I thought I’ve had bad days before – Geez! I can’t top that in my wildest dreams. I do love the comment about “the keystone cops sell Rhinestones!” That was perfect. I’m glad you are here to tell your tale. Hope things get better tomorrow.

  11. I’m glad you’re able to joke about it now, it must have been terrifying for you!

    You’re right, probably not the day to grab a camera and start filming!

    Well, congrats that you survive the ordeal!
