Here I am . . .

do you even see me?

I am so much more than you think.

It is your fault that I don't let you see me.

You don't deserve me.

Thoughts and prayers . . .

for blog buddy, Shannon, in her time of sadness and loss.
Hang in there, BPR. We're all here for you.

Is there anybody out there?!

Sorry I've been AWOL. As most of you probably know, I got a full-time job working for the local census office.

I LOVE it!

But, it does cut into my online time quite a bit, and while I could talk about the census ad infinitum, I won't. (I heard that sigh of relief over there!)

In other news, we expect the arrival of our 6th grandchild, Martine Michal, in late May/early June, our business is picking up a bit (custom cabinets, anyone?), and I am more in love with my husband than ever. Just 'cuz!

I do read your blogs and try to comment, so don't give me up for dead! I'm out here!!!!

Relief!!!!!!

I have no idea WHY, but my list of bookmarks disappeared Monday. I looked high and low (computer-wise) for them, and so did my husband (a much more patient soul than I am with technical stuff).

I was bereft. I felt lost without my trusty sidebar of favorite sites, just waiting for me click on them every day and opening up my familiar stops in my online adventures. Sure, I could have thought about it and remembered url's and typed them into the address bar, but it's just not the SAME . . . .

I actually avoided my computer. It felt alien. Slightly unfriendly.

Today, o wonder of wonders, my sidebar returned!!!!! The list populated and once again I had instant access to my routine! I have been happily clicking and catching up with my cyber-friends ever since!!!!

We blame yahoo. And thank yahoo for restoring things.

All is well once again.

Am I too attached to internet? YES!!!! And proud of it!!!! =0)

YES!!!!

(Many thanks to Dutchie for this flat-out stealing from her blog)
Off to Starbuck's now . . .

My Resolution--to remember this:

Lovely, complicated wrappings

Sheath the gift of one-day-more;

Breathless, I untie the package--

Never lived this day before!
