WHAT GOES AROUND, COMES AROUND

This is one of the lawn swings that EVERY FREAKING DAY has bird poop on it. A robin, maybe a whole herd/gaggle/pride of robins, sit here every morning, noon and evening and sings so delightfully, so happy and then they relieve themselves. On both of the lawn swings. Bird poop, lots and lots of bird poop.Until today, because last night I put flat head thumb tacks on the bar on top. I hope he didn't hurt himself. (Sarcasm, a lot of sarcasm.)
I took care of him and now, someone took car of me.
My computer turns it's self off umpteen times a day. It wipes out whatever I've been working on.

It wiped out ALL my email since May 16th. I hadn't read today's yet, except for a couple.

I have a novel I am trying to work on. Nope, computer won't let me.

I have emails that need to get sent to the students in the class I'm attending for the Writer's for Young Reader's symposium at BYU. I'm already four days late in sending that and now the computer has wiped out the names and email addresses of all the students.

I fixed that Robin/that flock, fleet, flight of Robins.

I'm getting paid back right where it hurts--in the computer. And oh, it hurts. I'd rather sit on thumbtacks.


Gotta hurry and post this before the computer turns it's sel

Give me a call and I'll bring Gary over to see if he can do something for your computer. I don't want to have you pulling your hair out.

So, was it enough to make you take the tacks off?

Does it lock the doors?
It might be overheating. Have you ever cleaned the fan?

Great idea........(has PETA called yet?). Now what do you suggest for your car sitting outside? Never fails every day after work a bird has visited my driver side window......
Yuck.yuck.yuck.

oh, poor little robins. I must say I felt sad for them when I saw the tacks. It must have made them so sad, to find their favorite singing place all unhospitable-like.

Lynne, hello, are you there? . . . :)

I love that idea, very nice.
I'm sorry you've been having computer problems, that stinks!
You've given me an idea for dinner too, I think I'll just run to costco for a chicken.
Loves!

You should tape those down (Or maybe you did?) SO they don't fall unnoticed and one sits on them by accident!
THat sounds like it might be a virus on your computer, I hope it gets resolved! OUr screen saver of pictures -by which I am daily mesmerized and I love-has stopped working the last two weeks. It says its still setup and working,but it just isn't. I hope its not a sign of things to come....Imean, we just got this computer in February!

I'm sure it wasn't punishment, but I do feel bad about the computer, it does seem when you need it to work the best this stuff happens.
