Serendipity

So now, I sit down again to make an entry ,and I cant add my pictures ! ...it is any wonder people arent posting as often as they used to ,Guido has been talking to Vishi about this ,but it seems we still have problems ,though I did discover when I went into the journals chat room ,if you find the pretty mauve screen,dont give up ,leave it a minute and it sometimes connects ,I  was so dissapointed  to have  just missed Yasmin the other night ...

After all the high winds of late ,we have a lovely spring day here ,I have done two loads of laundry and it is now blowing gently on the line in the sunshine ,I have also tidied up the garden abit ,putting things back in place that the wind blew over ,

After much agonising ...I have made the decision to cease to be the secretary of the Residents Forum,I found myself dreading the meetings ,and then not enjoying the discussions because I was so busy taking the minutes ,then the chore of coming home and making sense of my notes I have spoken with the Tenant Participation Manager and the Chairman ,who have both been so kind ,have understood  my reasoning ,but would like me to stay on the committee,which I would like to do .

Had things been different ,I would have been married 49 years today March 14th ,Mick died of a massive heart attack 25 years ago ,Funny how things pan out ,but now I have my dear Maurice and we are very happy together .

Well as I said I planned to put my pictures of the display  in the Lavender Blue shop window ,for Mothers day and spring ,AHH WELL ! I believe the Easter one is due...come on AOL give us a break ! 

A few days ago,Beckie boo asked Zoe,for some ideas for some script she planned to have tatooed with her sons names. I commented on Zoes blog that I have a tattoo.... and well for those of you  who know Zoe ?,well she isnt a girl to miss an opportunity

  I think that as we get older our lives become like a big calendar of personal memories.  "On this day .............." .  We can make a reason to remember out of almost every day that passes and that's as it should be.  So glad your memories of Mick are still going strong.
  love, Angie, xx

  Hi Jan ,its good you have given up being  the secretary  at the residents  meetings if you are no longer enjoying it . At least you can sit back and enjoy them without the pressure .What a lot of rain we had last night .I enjoyed the NEC  at the craft fair and today we have been out for a meal to celebrate Tonys 40th Birthday .I like your  graphic with your sig on .So Pleased you have Maurice to share your life with  and you are both happy ........with love Jeanxxxx

  I see you have your pictures working now!  Mine have not been working for at least 4 or 5 days now.  I have not been getting many alerts either. It just doesn't feel the same journaling without pictures.  They have become such an integral part of my daily dose!  I am still writing every day though, but on blogger and will continue to do so until I get my AOL sorted!   I hope that you have a lovely week!
  and am looking foward to seeing the Easter Display in that lovely shop window!
  love,
  Marie
