Hope

is what this sky says to me.

I have been talking to my computer for days if you are wondering why I haven't been by to visit.  It decided to go loopy on me.  It decided to freeze,  would not move no matter what I promised.  I would ask it to do one small task and then would lay down in the floor, hoping that it would complete that task when I was not looking.

Three evenings I have laid in this floor, trying to convince my computer to cooperate.  I guess I finally  stroked enough keys to make it happy.  My desktop is active, my picture is back, my email is working, and I can post without waiting for hours.  If my answers to mail seem clipped, they were.  I would type one  l-e-t-t-e- r at a time as I waited for the words to appear.   It was very difficult to not rip this thing out by all its cords and jump up and down on it repeatedly.

I have discovered I have more patience than I realized.  Thank God for that, I really could not afford another computer.

Now the storms are moving in and I shall unplug to avoid the lightening strikes and pray you are all safe tonight.

This Is Me

In all my embarrassment from my computer goof. I have deleted some pictures somewhere and they seem to have deleted themselves from some of my posts. I have tried to restore and it is a work in progress. If you go to my archives, please be patient as I will get them up sooner or later...later is more likely.

If I don't run away!!!!!!!!!!

I Want...

a new blog skin or template or whatever you call it!

I tried once and lost all my widgets, whatever that is! I know all my sidebar stuff got lost somewhere in no man's land. I found a three column(will that even work?) layout or skin that I loved. That's when I lost them all. Remember when all the new side pictures appeared? That was my lucky adventure day in blog changing.

Now, you must have guessed, I am computer illiterate. I know how to turn it on, sell a few things on Ebay, save many pictures and that's about it.

I am better with a hammer and nails than with a computer. Sometimes I have thought about using the hammer while operating the computer.

In fact I'm not good at many electronic gadgets. I have a cell phone that is never on. In fact, my message is: This is Gail, my phone is probably turned off, leave a message, I may check. I have one picture locked in my camera, an Olympus Stylus, and I can't figure out how to get it off there! The picture is the hanging gallows in Fort Smith, isn't that a little ironic?

Help! The only ones available on this Blog spot are boring! I want to try my newly grown computer wings but I need someone to help me jump out of the nest.

Any suggestions or sites I might try...only one qualification...it must be free or very cheap.
