Missed WOYWW wk 27......due to computer malfunction

What a rubbish week we have had here with our computers.

First ... DD's lap top dies at the end of last week but then we are told about the Computer Doc who makes visits in our area (Fife) and he did. What a nice man ... off he went clutching the lap top ....giving us hope that it might be able to be resurrected. He returned on Monday with a working machine and a very affordable bill.
Then DD couldn't remember the pass word to the wireless rooter so it still couldn't be used without some investigation. Tuesday came and the main modem gave up the ghost too and so we were Internet less ..... my goodness how I missed blogging.... couldn't wait for the man from Virgin to come. It is now Thursday evening and at last everything is working .....I hope ... lol and I really must have a blopping fix but I am finding it hard to keep my eyes open.

Sorry I missed WOYWW ...first time since the start. I really do have so much to catch up with, on all your blogs but it has really hit me how close Christmas is and all the things that need to be done still.
I have to get myself organized as I am going to be with Ben and Jake this Xmas ....cant wait ...it will be so magical to see it experienced by them.
Next week I am meeting up with my cousin who lives in New Zealand now ....we haven't seen or even talked to each other for over 30 years ...I am quite nervous but excited at the same time.

Hopefully I will be back on track next week
Take care xx

PC woes are so frustrating, and usually expensive to repair. It is amazing how we have become so eager to make the rounds of the blogs and see what is happening with our friends.
Hope all is well. Don't get too frazzled over the Christmas prep!

Just happy to see you - was a wee bit worried by your silence! A meeting with your cousin willbe amazing - I expect you'll stop being nervous the minute you clap eyes on her - and she's probably feeling just the same..am looking forward to hearing about it. Meanwhile - on with the preparations - you've not missed much at my place, am very VERY underprepared!!

Missed you, especially when you didn't post on Wednesday!
Have a lovely time with your cousin, and your grandchildren over Christmas.

Am in the same situation of catching up with blogs. Lurgy is all in my nose and throat now so am at least not resembling a zombie anymore.

I know what you mean about meeting up with people you have not spoken to in ages - I bet you'll both be nattering away in no time :)

How fabulous that you'll be spending Christmas with the boys! Lots of piccies I hope?
