JUST TUESDAY

 Hello everyone!  I`d love to report that today is warm and sunny but sadly, all we have is a very miserable, overcast and chilly day.  I suppose we have been lucky with the weather over Easter so I can`t really complain.  Apart from the fact that this southerly wind has blown all the petals of the magnolia tree...grrrr!  AND when we got home from walking Jake I felt as though I`d never get warm again....apart from that I  can`t complain...except... OK I`ll shut up about the weather!

                      

Now AOL is another matter altogether.  It has shut me down so many times today I`ve lost count.  What`s going on?  Is it just me or does it happen to everyone at once?  As there is always a message that comes on the screen saying `AOL has to close down`.  I think when it starts up again it should apologise.  Something along the lines of  ` AOL is terribly sorry and hopes it won`t do this to you again today!` lol ;-)

I`ve just tried a new website I read about in the paper the other day.  It`s for a product for pregnant woman.  It`s a hot chocolate drink called SLEEPY SLURP.  It is `quality chocolate blended with camomile, hops and passion flowers`, the manufacturers describe.  They are safe to drink during pregnancy and I know that Kerry is having a lot of trouble sleeping and I know how much she`ll love this drink, so I ordered her some and another couple of products just fot her.  It`ll be a nice surprise for her.

This morning I had to go out quickly and buy Slava`s birthday present. I had forgotten his birthday is 30th  March.  I got him a couple of T-shirts.  I know what he likes thankfully, so it didn`t take me long to get them but it didn`t stop me from browsing around the town, but I was good and didn`t spend any money, well I did but it was birthday money so I`m allowed that.....lol!

Well thats all for today.  Very little has happened today so I`m off to look at the internet now.  Take care and enjoy the rest of the day.

~~  Each episode of "Dr Kildare" had three suffering patients  ~~

I must admit mine was running a wee bit slow this afternoon and I'm on Broadband.I figured out that if i went to internet explorer and cleared the Temp internet files and Cookies that would help,and it did a bit.

I had that last week Sandra, the AOL booting you off thing.  That's so frustrating isn't it, I agree that the least they could do is apologise nicely!!  That sleepy slurp thing sounds yum, exept for the fact that it's chocolate, and I don't like chocolate drinks that is!  Must come in other flavours too though, not that I need it, not being pregnant and all that!!!  
Poor magnolia tree :o(  Mean southerly wind!

I am on dial-up as we have no broadband access here yet. Trouble is Aol have problems dialling up their own access numbers, plus cut on me, plus sooooooo slow I can't even load some web pages and accessing my journal is a journey to hell! Edit entry button on journal hasn't worked for months, have to go all around the houses (journal) to edit, getting into FTP space is like queueing for Cup Final tickets, and getting pictures to load into journal entry isn't trial and error, it's a TRIAL!  Only reason I stay with them is because of the friends I have made on here....it's like having another family without the hassles.

Amazing facts, Sandra.  It has been so overcast and chilly in my part of the world for so long, I don't think the sun exists.  ~sigh~  Oh well.  Take care, hon! xox

I think they owe us an apology also....will we get it? I doubt it!

How are you sweetie? It was up to 70 here today, very nice, but very windy. A storm is blowing in I do believe.

Hugs and Love,
Sharon

p.s.....How is Jake?
