before I start todays writing I just want to point out that I had saved a blog and never got back to post it, so although it has today's date it is actually a couple weeks old.  (see my red face?)

I did it!  It was wonderful!  I'm so so happy!   "It" was finally meeting my sister.  She and her husband are smashing and I'm so lucky to have them in my life now.  I really enjoyed their company on Saturday.

Now to recap the past few weeks or however long it's been since things were at all normal....whatever that means.

One thing I've done is agreed to help with a Wikipedia site.  It's fun but challenging.  My first task was to amend some logos.  That meant learning to edit photos etc, deleting the old logo and adding the new one in it's place and they are different shapes and sizes.  That involved using layers and all sorts of techie stuff.  I struggled with it and spent many hours doing it but feel so proud to have accomplished it.  To do this I made a new online friend, Bex.  This lady lives in the US and is deaf.  She teaches American Sign Language and is busy helping people with it.  She seems to do so many things I'm not sure if she ever sleeps.  

She asked me to include two websites for you to look at. One is about her son Craig who has overcome handicaps: www.caringbridge.org/visit/craigbennett  The other one is her singing on Youtube:  http://www.youtube.com/user/sign4uall/     It pleases !"students to look and see that more people have looked at her youtube song.   Thank you. 

It's nice making new friends, especially ones who are totally on your wavelength.  This lady keeps me laughing.  I have missed it for that past few days with no internet!

The weather has turned nice and springlike.  I can't wait to get out into the garden and that is something I seldom say.  I have been trying hard to get the house back up to my standards but am wondering whether to say goodbye to those standards.   I just like everywhere to be clean and shiny and nice.  For myself.  We all like it nice but I do it for my pleasure.
