Just thought I'd check in long enough to let all my many follower(s) [hah!] know I do indeed remember that I have a blog. For some reason, I don't seem too involved with it lately. I think it may be because my Mom takes a lot of time. That's my current excuse. She does need a lot of looking after, but the real reason is my life is out of control....seriously! I can't believe how much time it takes getting not very much done. Another factor is that every time I try to write I either have nothing worth saying, no energy to say it, or I keep making the mistake of re-reading my last blog written after my Dad died. It's hard to focus while weeping,I've discovered. But I finally achieved it even though I still have nothing to say. Anyway, I'm back....sort of. It's hard to blog when you have no internet access. But at least now I have a notebook so I can at least go to the library or a coffee shop and log on. Which is about the only thing it's safe to do online when you have to use a public access point. It may well keep my credit card a bit healthier since I can't shop on a public network. Sounding a little bitter, aren't I? On that note, I was getting ready to order a book at amazon.com when I realized someone had hijacked my identity to buy 2 wide angle camera lenses at $1,749.95 a piece. Oh, and have them shipped to a business address with overnight delivery. In a city I have never even visited. Fortunately I have stinky credit and they couldn't possibly have gotten the credit card on my credit history (could they? Better check that out!) Never the less, Amazon canceled my account because of it, so that will keep me from spending too. In a convoluted way, it's a good thing I have sucky credit, right?
