95, And Riding High

January 29, 2009

Well, where do I start? My computer came home last night. And yes, I had to return that lovely wireless keyboard that I had on loan from Wayne. Need to put that on my shopping list, right next to the new wireless mouse.

My computer is definitely sick. While I'm waiting for it to open or close a folder I can almost do a load of wash. Needless to say, this isn't making it fun to design anything. Also, the lost folders and items are devastating to say the least. I will by busy for the next few years just trying to match pieces of kits and folders to the original folder and then trying to find out where I got it.

They say the Lord doesn't hand out more than you can handle, but I don't think He's taken a good look at me lately. I lost my superwoman powers years ago, and now I'm just a rather slow mortal. It's sort of like I used to be the "Hare" and now I'm the Tortoise."

I read a beautiful article in last night's newspaper about a lady who lives nearby. She used to be a teacher at a local Academy, then she was head of their library complex. She did a fantastic job there, and then she retired. Since retiring, she works there as a volunteer archivist in the library. She goes to work three days a week. And guess what?? She's ONLY 95 YEARS old.

God bless her. I only hope that I will be as motivated and able to get around like that when I am 95 years old. I just love to read stories like this one, don't you?

Today was tax preparation day for lil ole me. My daughter in law came over to help me. This is not my funnest thing to do. Thank you, thank you Janet!! I have a few more columns to total up, then I can put it all on the work sheet. After that, I turn it all over to my accountant.

Crystal and Snow Raven from our forum at Magickal Scraps, have both challenged me to a photo challenge. I will have to check it out, and let you know more about it tomorrow. Hm-m-m-m, I wonder what those two are up to.

Tonight, I will post your Anniversary freebie #4. This one I call "Beauty." I hope you like it. Y'all have a great night.

Hugs, Edna B.
