Bit of Brit

Added the one blog I enjoy because of the picture. Look forward to being able to put pictures and photos. Problem now I cannot decide which photos to use. Sing a song of sixpence mind full of thoughts.

MADE MY DAY

Found myself able to cut and paste some changes by viewing another page. Mostly happy with catching on to the process.
Homemade tortilla chips and salsa added to the good feelings.
Looking forward to exploring the Universe for more exciting connections for my blog.

CLOUDY DAY

Bit of the clouds today. Keeping busy proofing a friends chapter for family history. Why do things always get larger as you make corrections? Considering a new computer which will give me a chance to really become professional.
Still working on the photo connection but thanks again to Linn I am on my way.
Those Mars photos are really something. Sorry I will not live long enough to travel in space as I do enjoy the travel. Speaking of which Linn is taking another group, along with Libby, to Londond in the fall. Maybe this time I will be along. Could not stitch a lick but love those libraries.

Photos and websites

Now attempting to connect photos and other websites to my musical selections. Keep my paws crossed.

REBATE SHEET

Having returned from crossing the river we find: there is an additional rebate form which office max offers. Now the checkout person is to put this form in with your purchase - beware! - most of the checkers do not pay attention. Another lesson learned the hard way.
Been checking out the blogs which can be reached through the Embroideress. Some very savy folks. I have learned a great deal about blackwork, embroidery, knitting and other subjects.

Rebates

Office Max has a new catch to their buy it and get it free after rebate. Search the book and there is no rebate form. Search their website there is no rebate form. Have to go back across the river tomorrow and see if they can show us the correct form. Probably end up returning product as I have good eyesight and a magnifying glass with same result. Moral - check the rebate booklet before you leave the store.

Sunshine

Feel so lucky to be living in the sunshine. Remember those cold winters and feel for the folks in the East.
Reading some books to tweak my political conscience. Not aware the Bush family related to English kings on both Mother and Father side. Have a British ruler with all the kings and queens so gives me something to ponder.
Pick for the Superbowl? Want the Eagles but suspect Patriots will make Las Vegas bookies dreams come true.
Still working on getting a handle on sidebar.

Simple?

Why do I not learn when someone says simple it means simple after a learning curve of months? Eternal optimist I am not. Checking out books at the library to make this simple setup clear.
Spent the last few days cursing my security system. Some good soul called in the middle of download and now the whole setup is tossing everything into the dumpster. Better luck next time. Have learned not to download during calling hours.
Thanks again to Linn The Embroideress who took time from stitching to help.

Sidebar

Working on getting this going correctly. Probably have to invade Linn's privacy again for clue as to what is going amiss.

Thank You Linn

Now the e-mail connection works. Have started trying to install Needlework Blogs I intend to follow.
Looking for a forum dealing with the Universe does anyone have any suggestions?

FRUSTRATION

Try, try and try again still unable to bring up correct format for folks to e-mail me from this site. Followed the format provided and still having a mess. Alas this soul is now reduced to listening to sad Irish Balads for solace.

Trying desperately to add links with little being resolved. My good friend Linn is doing her best to get me up and running correctly. Will keep at the problem until time for another nap
