Yesterday brought some heartbreak here to Le Bel Abris. As I reached for my beloved Blackberry, I instead sent it flying to the floor. It is quite busted, and keeps trying to reboot itself but can't. It was really pitiful, and finally the only thing I could do was remove its little battery, wipe my nose and move on. I had to run out and reactivate my old phone since I didn't buy the insurance for it.....and refuse to pay $400 for a new one. The cell phone is also the only connection with the outside world - you know, other than going outside and meeting up face to face....
Instead, I decided to drop the phone internet service and get cable internet - and a laptop with fullblown internet capabilities.
I haven't quite figured out what to do about pictures for the blog though.....not that I've taken any with my broken-ass phone.
The garden is coming along nicely. Yesterday my friend and co-worker Lori and friend Harry came and brought me to get bags-o-poop and peat moss for the upcoming vegetable garden. I have a week off coming up that I'll devote to that more rigorously, but in the meantime I'm pleased that at least the peas and bok choy are already coming up....oh, and the nasturtiums and sunflowers too!
Wow, it's such a shock to the system to be typing with all my fingers instead of just my thumbs....nice though.....
Looking forward to elaborating more when I can back it up with photo documentation.

So sad about your dear little friend... but glad to have you back with all hands (or fingers) on deck.
