A glitch...

Is anyone experiencing problems with Internet Explorer not being able to access mainly American blogsites? I have had this problem on and off over the past couple of weeks. It lets me in then a box appears to say it can't access that blog.

I have also removed my Kitty Clock widget and the Bubbles game that was at the foot of my blog. When I was having trouble with the above access, both these widgets would not load on my blog so they may be the cause. Pity - I liked Bubbles! I'll see how things go from now on.

I am especially happy for Margaret (Minnesota Mom). At 42 years of age, mother of 5 children and after many heart breaking miscarriages, she has given birth to a beautiful healthy baby boy - Anthony. I have followed along the pregnancy with her from the day she announced (on her 42nd birthday) that she was expecting. I am so happy for her!

Have a lovely day, won't you?

The only good mouse is a dead mouse...

I set 3 traps on my desk in my office last night and got 3/3 !!!!!!!!
Peanut butter is definitely a good bait. The poor little guys weren't as clever
as this little dude (lets call him Mission Impossible Mouse). I am not sure what is bringing them out, maybe there is rain on the way? or just more hot weather? They haven't been a problem before.
Good news - finally got a computer support technician to come to our house - don't know why we waited so long - and he has us up and running again. We lost nearly all our
files back in early December when we had a system error and I ran a re-installation disk which Dell told me to do - wiping practically everying!!
Any-hoo - we have internet and e-mail again so I can blog away at home to my hearts content.
I had printed out my home favourites list only days before - did I have a premonition? - so I have most blog sites listed - and I have more at work so I can copy those too.
John, the computer guy, was lovely and didn't make us feel stupid or dumb because we basically don't know much about the computer and the networks etc. He spent 2 hours with K18 and I sorting it all out.
Back in the land of home blogging - Cheers Joolz :)
