SORRY!!!!! .....


So sorry!!! ….

Well I am sorry at the beginning, will have to wait and see how it goes as I get near the end.

Well we hear this practically every day, don’t we? I am saying sorry because, since the last time I spoke to you, I have had swine flu!! And then my internet went down for two days!! OMG!!! I was nearly in tears … I knew it was nothing to do with my end, as I have a ‘map’ of connection, so I can see where the problem is at a glance, the map shows my ….

My pooter >> router >> internet

And there was a horrible red cross between router and internet, the router was working fine, just the internet had deserted me *sobs* so I called my provider (*coughskycough*) they went through all the stuff I had just done, I am not stooped, I may be blonde but I do know my pooter stuff, but she insisted that we went through all this stuff, no joy! Now there was a surprise.
So she pass’s me onto the next section, as I found out from this section, the first section is to see if the problem was my end … tsk *rolleyes* now this section was to connection .. Yeeess ok explain to me mister, so we went through some other check points of his on his list, still no joy, now I am not happy, the mister tells me he can do nothing as it is a problem at the exchange, and he will pass the problem on to the right people, and they will get back to me .. “how long will they be?” I ask .. the mister answers “ up to 48 hours” in a voice that would make you think that he is doing you a favour. Well I am sorry … I nearly broke down, and I know my voice was cracking cos he must have felt guilty, cos I explained something to him why I need internet soo badly, and I then had him nearly in tears, so he did say that he would put a note on his report to the next section ..
Anyhoo cut a long story short, I still waited over 48 hours really it was 49.18.23secs yes I was counting believe me lol
Do you want to know what it was? I will tell you, a card needed changing at there end, they changed it the day before (24 hours after me reporting me having no internet) but it needed to be on slow speed for 24 hours, hence why my connection was like going back to the dark ages … yes remember them days? When it was dial up, and you waited forever to get to one site? Yes the dark ages, so they called me and while I was talking to them and online they changed it back to the speed it should be, and now *ding* its even faster now than before lol still was not happy though, cos I was cut off from my lovely ‘net’ friends, and I panicked I can tell you, yes panic attacks cos no internet, do you think that has happened to anyone before? Well I do mean a normal person when I ask this question Hahahah

So since then I have spent most of my time catching up on what I was not able to do in the time I had no internet, I did not realise how much crap I was doing before this happened, I do now though!! I stretch myself very thin by the looks of it, with everything I do, no wonder I am knackered at the end of the day!

And you know, it was only a month ago, that I bought myself a lovely new lappy, as a backup to the one I had in case something went wrong with that one, and I could not fix it … usually I can, but sometimes it does take someone with electric pooter knowledge to sort it, so now I need a back up for my back up by getting some sort of backup internet connection if ever this happens again.

And of course while I am trying to catch up on all the usual stuff I do all over the place, low and behold a site I use then open another site connected to them ‘live cloud’ its called, so now being the curious person I am, I have to go looky … I GET BORED easily ok, so I need new stuff to keep me occupied, seriously!! people start running if they hear the words ‘I am bored’ come out of me lol
Anyhoo, yes so I go to have a look at the new place, and its rather nice really, like a mixture of other well know sites, under one roof, so I will be posting this blog on there as well hahaha see what happens.

Oh yes so, where I am all for change and looking forward, others do not, now, I understand why some people like to stay with what they are used to, but really, it does widen your horizons to try new things, but then again its like talking to my dad on this, as he is still in the very much in the dark ages with everything, so I suggested that for those that do not want to live with and move with the new stuff, that we build a place where you lot can all congregate, and I suggest as I did before we call it ‘Ye old village hall’ … lol you can use it like the old style you are used to, to all your hearts content!!

Another thing while I am on the subject, I do worry about people who do not like change, makes me wonder what else they are stuck in a rut with *rolleyes* *cough* hahaha lol

oh dear I really should not go down that road … so before I dig myself a hole that I have to bury myself in I am off …

Before I do, my theory on saying sorry is .. Some people use it all to readily, they do things that they know they should not but do it anyway, with ‘sorry’ already on their lips ready!!
Now under these circumstances should you except the apology?? Depends on the misdemeanour, really, if its something you can laugh at, by all means accept it, otherwise no, I‘m sorry. *sniggers* at the pun hehehe

But it this instance I do mean it, cos I really did miss lots of people that I have become to know and love.

So to add to all this, another way of looking at this theory, is to get out while you can, before that hole gets waaaay too deep lol
