This Cantina is a really important part of the board Lepplady. A lot of friends have been made here and a lot of precious memories as well. I thank you for thinking of it too. This is one of the first threads I check when I'm wondering what's up, and when I can spend time hanging out. I know you have issues with someone on the board and by someone I mean me.
I am not quite sure why but it's alright, I have a sneaking suspicion that it has more to do with you than me, so what you think of me is none of my business, I don't really care, and I don't mean that sarcastically. Since people are coming clean around here, I thought I'd wash my hands of an issue myself.
None the less, I thank you for this Cantina with all of my heart.
What makes you think I have a problem with you? Feel free to pm me about it.

I am sorry for the chaos I started. My first husband used to say often that I never knew how to leave well enough alone. That has been proven here. Sometimes what you think of as doing good really causes more problems.

You're never too old to learn. Not to worry --I'm a big girl. I bounce back from my lessons and I learn . . .and I move on.

I've learned a few things myself today. I'll move on, by all means, but I don't intend to forget them.

Now I'm going to have a cup of hot chamomile tea. Not a pot, sorry. Whoever packed the place up didn't label the boxes. So it's a Styrofoam cup and a teabag I found in my purse.
I'll see everybody tomorrow.

Ah. I get it. Of course.

Looking around the new digs, I'm finding all sorts of nooks and crannies where stuff can go. There might even be an extra room or two. It's going to be an adventure getting settled back in.
I'll rummage through boxes and see if I can fire up the grill for breakfast. Might scare up a buffet for lunch. Somebody else gets to hang the pictures though. I can't reach.

How kind of my cat to walk on my face at 430 in the morning and wake me up. She's lucky I worship her.
But, since I'm awake, I might as well get kicking. There are two comic books that aren't going to write, draw, ink and color themselves. And, even though I've got enough books chomping at the bit to be written to choke a horse, I think I'll take the time to jot out a quick synopsis for another one.
This one will involve a stalker that cons, charms and weasels their way into their victim's life on every conceivable level. At work, in the community, in their victim's personal life with friends and even lovers, all the while making the victim look like the one that's got problems. Even manages to make it look like the victim is the stalker.
And the victim takes it, trusting in the people in their life to have the good sense to realize what's going on and rush to help. But too often, people are quick to believe what they're told. Or they're too self-absorbed to care what the truth is. Or too hesitant to take a stand against the status quo. The victim is on their own.
Until the day when the stalker goes one step too far. Then the victim fights back. Not with fists or feet, but in every way the stalker has done. The victim plays cards out of the stalker's hand, weaseling, worming and charming their way into every aspect of the stalker's pitiful life. Work, friends, personal life, and the stalker doesn't realize it until it's far too late to go back. In the end, who will be the last one standing?
I guess we'll have to wait and see.
I just wonder what to call it.... Something deliriously clever. I'll think about it over about a gallon of coffee. Or two.

Good Monday to all. Start of a new week. Hope the weekend was kind and all you planned was accomplished. I still have a back log of wash to catch up on. Weather is cool again at 61F/16C, but sun is strong and 80's are due by noon.
Time of that cup of herbal tea as I head over to bean bag central. All are welcome to join. Have a great day!!!

Last night I noticed my iPad was down to 4% battery. I don't like to charge it overnight.
there have been reports of iPhones and iPads catching fire when being charged. It appears to be when people buy the cheap replacement cords...but why risk it.

When I went to bed, I only read a few pages and suddenly my Kobo shut off and popped up the "feed me" message. (That never happens with paper books.) the Kobo plugs in with a USB, but fortunately my son has a little plug thingie to plug it into the wall.

When I got up this morning, I checked my cell phone for messages, and the battery was low.

So now I'm plugged in all over the house.
