oh goodness where to start?? i have so much to say and nothing to say at the same time. i am rusty - out of practice, behind... {although i did finally just "catch-up" w/ all of you all - OK most of you all.... it's kind of odd to read over a weeks worth of posts at one time - and kind of exhilerating too}

computer is back. hard-drive was wiped. i have spent many hours re-tooling and re-installing and getting things back to normal. i am SO BEHIND on things to do on the computer i don't even want to start a list. but it's nice to have my computer back. i sure did miss it!

above is what happens when you don't have said computer. you have time to wrap wooden beads with tiny scraps of fabric and make bracelets. heh heh.

i hope everyone is enjoying their music swaps! i have many to photo and share with you....

i also hope you are enjoying "take the cannoli" - i have so many quotes bookmarked with pink sticky notes - it's actually kind of silly looking.... i have needed all the laughs i can get though. so thank you miss vowell.

and on that note... i must get back to work. i just wanted to say things are almost back to normal. [wait - are things EVER feel normal around here??] more sooner rather than later! xoxo to everyone who wished my sad laptop well... to all of you that emailed and commented on that sad last post that just sat there and sat there and sat there.... and said you missed me. if that doesn't feel good, then what the heck does! MISSED YOU all back!!
