Aaaah at my bloody computer..:mad: Stupid thing decided to die on me yesterday evening at 8pm. So I was sorting the darn thing out since 8pm till 4am this morning. I finally got into bed at 5am just as DH was getting up for work.:eek:
Sadly I have lost most of my emails, passwords for most of my sites although these are rescuable thankfully. And I had the foresight to back up my bookmarks into Google so at least I can now go back and sort out what I am going to keep this time.
I got up at 10am this morning and started tackling the final bits of the computer that needed tweaking. Only to find out my blooming digital services had gone down, it's now up and running again thankfully. But my email is now sending me emails dated back to 2008..errr what on earth is happening there..lol

Hi guys :wave:
Yay toots is back! :T:j Welcome home flower, plenty of rest mind you and don't be doing the stars again straight away xx
LOL polly we could be twinsI do that with tin openers too.
Got to paint the utility room floor now, yes, GOT TO! OH told me to so that he can fit the TD, units and everything in, he's on a tight schedule at the minute and can only fit me in on Monday, so seeing as I've got the afternoon off and will be working flat out from tomorrow up until Saturday afternoon, it's best to use the time wisely and get it done, well the first coat at least.
Will do the list after. Need to take everything out what I put in this morning now :rotfl:0 -
