seriously - what I'm throwing out is old manuscripts, old cut out pictures from magazines... photocopies of articles - I'm a magpie with shit. I don't think this will be of any use to anyone.

AND TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD IS ON THE TV!

YOU GET RIGHT BACK TO PACKING, LITTLE MISSY!!

I don't know if the cat could handle any more packing - she's seriously freaked out by the great big brown monsters filled with our stuff.

Morning cantinas

If it helps, it's raining here. It's the UK, that's what it's supposed to do. Various authorities will be relieved because we are well down over winter and there are lots of restrictions and things in place at the moment.

Computer update - it seems the OS can't cope with the last century graphics card at the moment so I shall have to have a disc to start with, then when he's found the right drivers I go sans disc. Which I prefer because I am brilliant at the accidental kick across the room, obviously the more important / expensive the item, the further I can kick it.

Pyword - thanks Debio, I'll have a look at it.

Bettie - I thought cats were supposed to like boxes?

I need more . I keep mistaking the UserCP button for reply.

Later...

Morning folks. Happy Easter Day if you celebrate. And happt World Health Day, though I think that was yesterday.

I has no chocolates.

Happy Easter!!!! (For those who celebrate.)

How's everyone? I keep saying I will pop in here more and then I go get lost.

One wonders about the wisdom of putting World Health Day inbetween two major feast days for a significant part of the world. Surely here in the cantina we would celebrate *drum roll* World Elf Day *ding!*

Neither does I. Your excuse will cease to hold the moment you move in behind Willy Wonka's though. My excuse is that I refuse to pay inflated prices and I'm waiting until next week when they're all on discount at the shop (Cheap? Me? Why, yes.)

Do you have a freecycle list in your area? I am constantly amazed at the total crap strangers will take if it's free.

I once requested cardboard on a Freecycle list and got some. Yay for crap.

oh no.... are you me?!?

I bought a newer car yesterday. Still feeling pretty damn good about the whole thing. Despite losing six hours of my day to the process.

As a reward, it's about to be "meet your damn word count" time. My rewards are a little lacking.

Do you use the Freedom app? It's the best money, as a writer, I've ever spent.

Plus I can use it to lock the computer so the kid can't go online and buy apps, the sneaky little bug.

I just noticed these posts. I use Freedom and Write or Die, sometimes together. This is how focused I am at times.

I haven't checked out Freedom. Sounds like it may be worth my time. WorD has been very helpful, but I only tend to use it for 30 minutes at a time. Not sure if that's a good thing or not.

No chocolates here either. (See reference to weak rewards above.) See, this is a reason to have kids. It's Easter. There would be baskets. I could pilfer. *cue new excuse for baby fever*

Thanks, Ali.

UberDire! Come visit, I have dark blackout.

This morning I have made pumpkin cake (still in oven), tidied up, and planted 36 more celeriac. I may have an addiction. But I did figure out where to put the fourth raised bed. *cackles*

Now, if Walmart is stupid enough to be open for a few hours today, I can buy some soil.

This could be a problem. Are we doppelgangers? Evil twins?

I NEED ANSWERS.

I vote for there being an evil twin. Do one of you have a goatee?

edit: this is bothering me... is it 'do one of you' or 'does one of you'?

For those who celebrate, Happy Easter!

How's everyone this fine Sunday?

I have joined the modern era, and gone from WP to computer himself finished building it this afternoon now I can do more of this.

I'm also without chocolates, but I have a habit these days of waiting 'till Easter Monday or Tuesday, and walking over to the nearby big chain store to buy Post Easter Chocolate that they're now trying to unload at clearance prices.

All my instincts are screaming at me that it's the latter. I have no grammar rules to back it up with, though.

Good morning and Happy Easter. We considered hiding eggs for the cats, but that seemed like a bad idea. How are you all?
