An improvement to my usual disappearance is that I now can be out of town and still post! The family members I keep visiting have not only gotten an internet connection, but recently also added a wireless router. So while my post times may be erratic due to their schedules, at least you’ll get reviews while I’m here.

Or insanity, depending on how you look at it. I am in at stupid o’clock because there is a pit party before the first show. It’s OK, I obviously have my laptop and an internet connection, so if nothing else I can do random searches for things to see where it takes me. Sometimes that can be fun.

Or at least all but the piles at the corners of the driveway and sidewalk. It rained for most of yesterday and melted it all away! I couldn’t be more excited…it’s no secret if you’ve followed these posts for more than ten minutes that I hate winter. I’m sure we’ve still got one more snowstorm in store since that’s how it works here, but for now it’s been near 50F and my daffodils are almost blooming. I’ll take it!

That is the only logical explanation left. All of a sudden, it has decided that each sheet of paper is approximately six sheets thick, thus it grabs that many to print. Of course, that many won’t go through the machine, so it jams. But if I have only one sheet in the tray to try to trick it, it won’t take it in at all, and still tells me I have a paper jam. Might be time to retire it, although being me I’m going to try to fix it until it is broken so horribly beyond recognition that giving it a decent burial would be the only humane thing.

I’ve pulled yet another disappearing act, sorry. There is family stuff going on that requires my presence out of town periodically for a few days at a time, but it should be getting better soon. My niece and her husband found out yesterday the three children they’ve been fostering since last April are officially going to be their adopted children, most likely by the end of the month! I couldn’t be more excited, since my niece is more like my little sister…she and I are closer in age than her mother and I. So while I apologize for my absence (again), I must say I was very happy to have been present for that particular phone call from the case worker!
