Shoo ... two ...

.... books in two days! No wonder I have eye strain!
That's thanks to wireless that doesn't work after computer got fried! But it wasn't the end of the world. We're now back to cable and we can now all connect (all five computers)

I can't see what he's saying, but I would think something like, 'Yes, we did it! Back in the land of communication" Well, Hello Again! I have so much 'catch up' to do.

Have a great weekend everyone and enjoy the glorious sunshine!

Hugs

To err is human ....

.... but to really foul things up, requires a computer.


Unfortunately, evil troll does have powers. This is first time in yonks that I can actually get to my blog and post. Hopefully I can PUBLISH POST. Oh S*****T 'Cannot contact blogger, will retry! My grey hairs are multiplying by the thousands.

I'll stick with Harlan Coben's The Final Detail. At least I dont need electricity, a generator or a computer or the internet! But I do miss being able to visit blogs and chatting!

Hugs and love

Due to a ......

..... power outage this past Saturday, my hard drive got FRIED, well and truly!

I tried holding a candle behind the screen but it didn't work! Can't understand WHY!
Got my 'puter back today and have been trying to see what is lost and what is not.
Valuable lesson learnt, SAVE, SAVE, SAVE

So please forgive me for not visiting any blogs and not doing any challenges this last while.

Love and Hugs to All

Thank you to all who have left such great comments.

Playing catch up ....

...... I'm trying to get back into the swing of things. There is so much going on that this adle brain is battling to cope. So I decided that the only way was to grab the first challenge my mouse fell on .... Hilda

It's a laugh a minute in this household because I see the challenges and think to myself, geez that's great, then life happens in the meantime and when I look again the next challenge is up and I haven't even thought the last one through. Is it just me? Someone is messing with Mr/Mrs Time.

So I bid you all goodnight and thank you all most sincerely for your lovely comments. They are appreciated more than you know.

Warm Hugs

Missus June, you are fabulous and I sincerely thank you, once again for this Award.

2. If you’re my friend, you’re my friend, come hell or high water or fallen trees in lounge area.

4. I am like a lioness when it comes to protecting my family (my Lion included)

5. I am a self confessed hoarder. Like THAT is SO unique?!?!?! Be honest now.

6. I love being in the African bush. Except for the mossies and ‘roaches!

7. I’ve not done anything marvellous, fantastic, earth shattering or awe inspiring …..
but I have bungie jumped and I still have my wedding dress after 34 years!

CarolAnne who has the most amazing images.
Elizabeth who is so informative and does great digital art and finds inspiration everywhere and anywhere and shares her finds.

Cookie Sunshine. You are on my list too. Please start up your blog again. You are an amazing artist and such a good friend.

These ladies create a balance in my life. Each and every one is unique and I am so grateful and thankful that our paths have crossed.
