Hello Out There!

Howdy friends.  I am now coming to you via my new NoteBook, a birthday present from my family.  I'm still learning to use  all the features on it. One I'm really fond of is the Skype feature.  I've been trying out the camera that's built in.  The downside of that is, that most of the pics look like the ones they take for passport, license, or in jail...........not that I would know about the last one!  I will post again soon and thanks to all of you that extended a hand in friendship and sympathy.  It helps to know that somewhere out in the world I'm thought of kindly.  Here's a big Dinah Shore Kiss  mmmmmmmmwhaaaaaaaa!

Uh Oh!

Hi Everyone.  I have been absent from the blog-oh-sphere for some time as I have had no access to the internet.  The reason for that is very simple....I wrecked my laptop power cord about 3 weeks ago, and so cannot charge it up.  A new power cord is around $100 and I don't know if I want to spend that much on powering up my 10 year old LT.  Right now I'm using a friend's LT and internet to let my friends know where I've been.
The upside of not being "plugged in" is that I'm getting a heck of a lot of things done around the ol' homestead and catching up on mending, knitting and tidying up the messes I seem to make all by myself! 
So for now, I'll keep in touch whenever I can use my friend's LT and mull over the purchase of the cord or a new LT.  Decisions, decisions.  <3
