I hope everyone has had a good
weekend. It has been so incredibly warm
here in my part of England
As I have been away from the computer a
bit I found I was desperately trying to catch up with all the posts in my
stream / newsfeed which takes ages when you haven’t been on for a while. It made my wonder who sees my posts when I
list a new item or Networked Blogs publishes my blogs on my Facebook page. Do people see them at all if they have a busy
stream I wonder? Do we all feel
compelled to catch up on everything we have missed or do we just skim
over the most recent activity. We do so
much on the computer these days for everything and not just the media sites
that we are totally lost if we lose our internet connection or have a problem
with the computer. Everything we do is
so based on technology that we are totally lost without the computer/internet
and our mobile phone. Could you go for a
week without them??? If I wasn’t on
holiday and just at home I think I would be tearing my hair out. It’s like having a power cut or your boiler
breaking down in winter. My bum sits on
this chair for so long each day I am not surprised it is chair shaped! When I was working in an office all day I got
up to do other things so much more than I do now. If I am not on the computer I am sitting
making jewellery. Now and again I think
I ought to fit in a bit of housework – LOL – usually the minimal amount unless
I know someone is coming round.
Now the nights are drawing in we have to
take the dogs for a walk earlier so we tend to see a lot of other dog walkers
out as well because everyone is cramming their evening walks into a smaller
space of time. Tonight was a bit of a
pain though as we had to double back on our walk due to seeing other dogs that
we try to avoid. One is a great big
Alsatian who just gets our 2 (especially one of them) on the ground and wont
let them up. The owner seems to think
her dog is being friendly even though her dog has his mouth round the neck of
the one laying on her back on the ground!
Just because her dog doesn’t actually close her mouth and rip the throat
out of one of ours is not the point. The
others that we try to avoid are a pack of about 8 black Labradors
that the owner has no control over who are never on leads and they tend to gang
up on other dogs. In fact they set upon
and attacked our last dog (that has passed over now) while he was on the lead
and really hurt him. After that he was
never the same easy-going placid dog again with other dogs and was wary of them and he always growled at any
black Labradors . Tonight when we out walking we saw the
Alsatian in the distance so hung back and diverted a different way only to see
the Labs a bit further along that route so we had to double back the way we
came.
Time for my useless snippet of Trivia
today:
Why do banks charge a fee due to insufficient
funds when they already know you're broke?
