It’s been exactly a year since I first wrote a post and entered my activity within the blogosphere.
The reason I began this adventure is directly tied to my dear friend Marisa.  She had, of course, been blogging for years, and she had told me many times about the money she made, the friends she met, […]

I would like to get some input from you all on this one.
In just a couple of weeks, I’ll be celebrating my blog’s first birthday, and in honor of this prestigious event, I’m thinking about changing my theme.
I’ve been using this one since Day One, and I chose it because I liked the way it […]

I admit it: I’m angry and frustrated right about now.
For the better part of a week, some jerk who owns another blog has been stealing my posts and putting them up over there. I’m not going to give said jerk the benefit of providing the title here, but for those people who have […]

Tie a string around my ankle, and hold me to the floor!
There are several blogs that have become a “daily read” for me.  Some are funny; some are informational; still others tend toward the gossipy side.  I love ‘em all.
Then there are those blogs I must check out as models of excellence.  Falling into this […]

My new friend Stinkypaw over at Stories2Tell has tagged me for a meme, and I’m taking her up on the challenge for several reasons.
First, while she’s a relatively new friend, she’s also become a good one, and I like to do whatever I can for my friends.  It’s neighborly.  And maybe, if I’m ever in […]

Well!  It’s been awhile since I’ve posted anything, and I’m punishing myself for the lack of blogging time as soon as I figure out something appropriate.
No real reason for my staying away — yeah, I’ve been having internet access issues, but to be honest really, I just haven’t felt up to any witty repartee.
The weather […]

I owe you all an apology.
My internet connection has been messing with me lately, so much so that simply logging on to retrieve my email has become a battle of wills, so I haven’t been posting nearly as much as I would like. You can take that for what it’s worth in the apology department; […]

Maybe this will work, or maybe not.
Those of you who read my blog regularly already know two very fundamental things about me: First, I have the patience of a gnat. Or maybe even less than that. Second, I know Jack Squat about computers.
My poor little laptop is dangerously close to going swimming […]

I don’t know what’s going on with internet connections right now, but I’ve been having a hard time accessing the web, and as it turns out, I’m not alone.
The girls came to visit yesterday, and during a break in the marathon card games, I was trying to log on to check my email.  I got […]

One thing I have noticed about computers is how they become outdated so quickly.
I bought my Mac back when 14-4 modems were all the rage, so it’s obviously useless now for doing anything on the internet.  My little laptop is chugging along well right now, but I know that it won’t take much for it […]
