I`ve done it ! I`ve done! I`ve done it and it`s all thanks to Sara`s advice. I`ve beaten my score playing Bookworm and I would never have done it without help....I`ll get to that later . I am now proud to announce the princely score of 203,080 and I`m now an Archivist. I never got past 146,000 odd and I was only a lowly Senior Librarian. But now the sky`s the limit . If you want to know what advice Sara gave me you have to go to the comments section of my last entry!
I`m now out to get the biggest score ever but I still have another 200,000 points to get to catch Sara. But I`ll get there in the end.....sigh.
Well I`ve said it and am now calm. Today I have been on the phone about my toilet brush that I should have recieved by now. Friday I was told it had been despatched on March 4th . Now I am told that the person in question shouldn`t have told me that as the d**n brush hasn`t been sent out yet! In fact, it won`t be sent out until March 31st. I should then receive it in 7 working days. Nor bad seeing as I ordered it on November 4th last year. I have told them that I don`t think it`s unreasonable of me to be a little fed-up with the whole saga. I will keep you informed as to the progress of said brush, and IF I ever receive it I shall photograph it and use it as an ornament!
The buds on the shrubs are opening. The Magnolia is opening up and soon I can take a photo and show everyone just how lovely it is, unless the weather forecast is right and we get heavy rain through April and strong winds, just what we need to blow all the blossom away.......:-(
I had a go at making graphics with Paint Shop Pro. Hmm, I`ll need a bit more help here. I have a tutorial sent me by a girl who is an expert but the first stage is to open a certain window, which I can`t seem to find so I`ve fallen at the first hurdle. I tried to do things on my own but I haven`t the faintest idea whats what, so I`ll have to ask advice again.
I had a session of Physio at the hospital this morning. They were pleased with my progress so all I have to do now is exercise my little finger which doesn`t do what I want it to. It just sticks out at a funny angle and doesn`t seem to get on with the rest of my hand. So to strengthen it I have to flick things ( like a pen top for instance) along the table with it. It`s harder than it sounds as my finger starts to ache after several flicks.... try it and see! They told me I can start driving again so I didn`t tell them that I`ve already started and to use my hands normally but not to lift heavy weights. That`s okay as I have Jim for that. ;-)
I`m off now for my dinner. All that Bookworm has given me a an appetite. Bye for now. Have a nice relaxing evening............

Excellent Sandra, in fact, yaaay!!!
Glad your physio is going well, am doing the flicking the pen across the table, hubby thinks I'm going mad ;o)
That's ridiculous having to wait all that time for a toilet brush!! You will have waited longer for that than we will have for our three piece suite - assuming the suite arrives, ever!!

Aaaaahhhh I see your spending your time well LOL ;-) Only kidding that's great news!! Toilet brush huh?? What is it a gold one?? LOL...... Good luck on paint shop shall look forward to more updates on that one!!
What is this Bookworm thing anyway - I keep seeing other people mention it, but haven't a clue what it is, lol! A computer game I suppose. Glad your hand has made good progress - timed just right for all the gardening coming up now!

Yes, I love Bookworm. Been playing it for over two years, gets quite addictive. I shall have to check and see what advice you were given because I can never beat my top score which is not as high as yours. Glad your arm is improving my friend xxxxxx
