Hello and welcome back! (or just "Welcome" for the first time readers who missed my premiere post)
Well, (uh-oh-what now?) I described this new endeavor as something to share. Something with a nice positive spin. But don'tcha know, I'm going to add a little attitude here already. Not how I wanted to start this new experience. I believe I must take the bad with the good. So please bear with me as I vent a bit today. I know you'll find yourself nodding in agreement at times as well.
Ah computers, meant to make life better and quicker, right? AHEM! Today I'll go with "NOT". Don't get me wrong, I love my computer and have gone crazy without it before, but there are times when a window is in serious danger of becoming a portal for one heavy emachine and all it's external gadgetry. I will explain.
There are moments when said emachine (to be known as the "perpetrator" from hereafter) decides that it would rather not "reach out and touch" the modem. Internet explorer appears ready to go and then it sits, and sits, without getting a connection. Our WIFI, however, works wonderfully and my DH and DD are easily enjoying thier multimedia experiences. And the "perpetrator" still...sits and sits...
I have checked microsoft help and my query has been recorded (numerous times) as a windows problem with no solution-at this time. My very last resort will be to contact tech support. I really don't want to go that way if I don't have to. The wait is too long and then I always get someone from overseas who I can't understand.
So, till then, as I start up the "perpetrator", I will-sit and sit. Eventually my computer will find its way to a connection as if there was never a problem to begin with.

Welcome (Powitanie) Friends: New & Old - Past, Present & Future
Welcome to my blog! It's my first, so go easy on me! I have wanted to do this for a long time, but never got up the nerve till now. I can't use the busy excuse because everyone these days is busy. So, maybe I've been procrastinating...just a bit.
I'll be talking about all kinds of stuff. So, if you don't like the topic one day, please come back & check it out again because even I never know what I'm going to say! We'll have lots of fun here! Sometimes I'm even my own best company. (OK, so I talk to myself, too.) But, I love sharing with others & I hope you'll do the same. I'll put up some pics soon. I have some good ones of myself & my two sisters when we were little. (that's going to be scary!) But, it seems that pics now can be scary, too. I'll try not to frighten everyone off in the first few weeks.
This can be whatever we want it to be. You can be sure that it'll be different! (Ooh, don't know if I should say that.) And, although I do not speak Polish, (another post perhaps), I remain Polish, blonde, & female while wearing "My Babcia's Babushka"!
Na Zdrowia! (To your health)
