Um... Hello?

Hello?..  Blogger?  

Is SOMEBODY there?..  Anybody? 

Yeah, I seem to have lost my list of followers AGAIN...

and I'm wondering WHY???

Do you think I could PLEASE have them back?

(sigh)

Well, at least I can still post.  That's good; but the missing followers, the people who say they tried to comment but couldn't..  I hear some people can't upload their photos.  It gets a little frustrating sometimes, but I suppose with the number of blogs that are out there, the experts just do what they can.  I looked it up recently, and I read that as of February 2011, there was a count of over 156 MILLION blogs in existence!  Can you believe that?!!

Hopefully, the issues will all straighten out sometime soon.  I'd cross my fingers, but they're a little too busy right now, working with a pair of scissors and cutting out flowers!...  About 30 of them just in this photo. 

It's been so hot today, I TRY to imagine they're snowflakes...  but it's really not working for me.  I'm STILL hot...  And uh-oh!  I think I better get the vacuum cleaner out too, because I didn't have the good sense to cut these flowers out over a garbage bin either!  (Bad Beansie!)...  Oh well, I do like how they look already, and I haven't even painted or inked them up with any pretty colors yet!

I had a meeting at the school to discuss Dear Son's progress with homeschooling.  Not much to say, except the meeting went well, and not too terribly long at all. It was just that the WALK was tough, in these hot and humid temperatures.  I'm still wondering how awful I must have looked, as the secretary at the school must have felt sorry for me, and ran to get me a bottle of water, and my own personal fan!

Well, after all was said and done there, I stopped at a local dollar store on my way home.  

I found a few things that I've been needing in the way of craft supplies, all very inexpensive, so I was very happy with the little treasures I could bring home with me!...   But I wasn't back home for even barely a minute, when Dear Son told me about a "big crash" in the house while I was gone.  WHAT?!...   It turns out a shelf had fallen off the hooks that were supposed to hold it in place, and a good number of my favorite vintage tea cups, knick knacks, etc. came crashing down and were just either broken, or shattered.  Oh my gosh, I could hardly bare to look at the time.  At least nobody was hurt, but...

"Um...  Hello?... Dear Lord?  Are you there?  Could you maybe, PLEASE, help me not to cry, to remain calm, to perhaps control my Irish temper, and to remember to count my many blessings?"

I'm doing my best not to think about it right now..   Just working on my crafts tonight, as if it didn't even happen.  A cool down period, I guess...   Great coping skills, huh?!!

I'll think about that tomorrow.  For now, I know JUST the thing that might make me feel at least a little better about the incident.  A temporary band-aid, perhaps....

But oh yes, I think I AM feeling better already!  Want some?

Calories?...  I don't care about that right now.

I'll just think about that tomorrow too.

Thanks so much for stopping by;
and please take some cookies with you before you go,
before I eat them all!
