Hello everyone,

guess I messed up on Lilly's msg,,,I'll try to go back and fix it...soory if I figured out the date wrong Lilly,,,,but I see in Pets post that it's the 30th,,,
with if that's the case,,,,(cuz it's now the 30th in AU)
{{{{{{HAPPY BIRTHDAY AGAIN,,,,TO YOU XOXOXO}}}}}}}}
meanwhile,,,,boy what a catch up to do...

Thalia and

Mathilda,,,,
you young ladies are sounding like your having so much fun now...and looking forward to Corisca.....that's Grrrreat!!!

I'm sure you'll have lots more fun and tons of stuff to discover....
we'll all be looking forward to hearing from you....
Petra, you're so spoiled,,,,served tea yet!!!! beautiful children you have there, Manny included.....red and black ants and all.....wonder what he'll find in Corsica...
Sandy dear,,,I could just see you doing the twister dance....
don't worry,,,,,Tai Chi is nothing like that,,,,still laughing

thinking of it.... Tai Chi, instills graceful movements,,,,you just flow from one pose to another,,,,,no twister moves involved
Hey Heather, glad to hear Matthew is coming along,,,,every bit of progress must just make you ecstatic....
Where did you post pics....????
Hi Gypsie,,,,and Aqua Deb,,,,,you're letters are wonderful,,,glad to hear things are going well with both of you....
sorry I haven't been here much,,,,just caught up in other things,,,,everytime I came to the board,,,,something else would happen...
and I also had a day of.....just not feeling like I was even here...
I've been fighting with 'change',,,,yeah,,,,imagine that,,,,and I discovered it in the funniest way....
The new computer we got has this new operating system called Vista,,,and the other one and the lap top are on XP....
well the Vista has the latest edition of Office and it was so different, I just kept trying it, and not liking it,,,and going back to the XP,,,,well,,,just making problems for myself of course.....I truly didn't understand how the wireless connection worked......I was worrying about how to get my files off the laptop,,,,without deleting them from the mainframe...
Duh,,,,and I mean really DUH!!!!!
so Allan and I were on the computer upstairs and the conversation rolled around to the new Office program,,,,,and I'm crankin on about it,,,not liking it.....(for once he's remaining calm),,,,I'm getting more upset,,,
(yeah I hear you all,,,,breathe Lynn, breathe)....
so I said, I'm going out to the hot tub....and went out to soak, and breathe,,,,and get reconnected.......and as I sat there,,,I remembered when the 'old' word program was updated,,,,probably when we upgraded it was 5 yrs ago....and I remembered I had to 're-learn' and I did...
so I gave thanks for remembering,,,,,and came back in.....in a new frame of mind.....
then I tackled the 'opening of my mind' to what I thought was a problem with my files all on this laptop ,,,,,as I said DUH!!!!! it just doesn't work that way....... when the wireless connection is dis-connected,,,,the files aren't here on the lap top......never have been,,,,,I only access them from the main computer upstairs...
So now,,,,well, get the new Office program,,,,install it on all three computers......and let the learnin begin !!!!
my biggest blessing is,,,,it of course doesn't affect my being able to come here (except for the time it will take Allan to upgrade the 3 computers)...
so I'm saying

to everyone,,,,,
including you Memaw

that was funny!!!!
what everyone else doesn't know is that we had just spent an hr burnin up the phone wires !!!!
So sending you all love,,,,and if I can get in a post or two I'll try to....
