No Time to Say Hello, Good-Bye...!

I stepped onto the fast lane this week with the new job and family gatherings. It's all good stuff, but leaves no time for my fun! To top it off, I found out my Mom pays by the minute for her phone connection - the one I have been Gathering with!

Needless to say, I must be brief and get my butt off of here! This weekend I'll get my computer connected to cable Internet and be back in full swing. Feel free to send me a link to an article you think I shouldn't miss. I'll catch up as I can!

And if I had time to read in the next few days I would ask how to deal with the withdrawals. I want my Gather time!

"I found out my Mom pays by the minute for her phone connection - the one I have been Gathering with!"

As the late-great Snagglepuss once said,
"Eeech-Ooch-Ooch ! "

Goodness, someone from my neck of the woods! We're practically neighbors.
Aileen F. Sep 16, 2006, 10:54am UTC
I am finally set up on cable, although if I want my own computer I have to switch the monitor and stuff to my tower instead of mom's. It's a start! I still have to fight for computer time though, so I am not sure how active I'll be. I hope to do some catching up this weekend!
