I can't do avatars! Got free avartar from internet, right clicked it and pasted onto my desktop. Have done edit avatar and custom avatar, on the 2nd option I've browsed desktop and double clicked the saved avatar and then asked to upload but it says invalid file everytime and I've done it with half a dozen or more free avatars! God I'm a right numty technophobe!!!

YAY, I done it, I can now see all the lovely avatars, hope my yellow one is ok; because I am doing it from work, it kept blocking me from a lot of the sites.

Well I think I've got an avatar (will find out when I hit Submit)- which for a technophobe like me is amazing (and I didn't have to ask dh or ds2 - ds1 is worse than I am). So:

HUGS TO AnW'S MUM. A & W -you are in my prayers today

Dh is working from home today which always impedes me as he wants to know what I'm doing on here, why I'm sitting down for a 5 min break etc. Ds2 is off school for teacher training - but he's carrying on tidying his room - we decluttered a load of books into the loft so he has more room on his shelves. Bathroom is fine by me Pigpen, I was dreading the playroom or ds1's room:eek:. Off to do the S&S of the kitchen first.

See you all later

Edited to say: Sorry the avatar is more orange than yellow - but it's there!!!!
