Hiya BetterMost friends.

Well, here we are, back at Monday.    Oh well, I guess all good things (weekends) come to an end.

The "strange" banner is here because I had a strange dream last night, and I thought it may make you all laugh! Before I share it, I have to preface it with a story.

Not long ago there was a Sacred Heart School (my grade school) reunion and I met up with 6 of my former classmates.   It was a blast, and we talked about a lot of memories, and we all questioned each other about "Susan" and how no one could find her on Facebook, through email, or any other way.

Ok, so last night I had this dream that I was in a car, and was being driven somewhere by "Sue's" mother, "Donna."  LOL I asked about Sue and according to Donna, she's now a Mennonite. Hahaahaa!

It gets better! In the dream I tracked her down! She was living in a wooden house, and when she opened the door she was wearing a Little House on the Prairie dress with the white bonnet, and her husband Josiah was standing behind her!

I have no idea what made me have this dream, but it was crazy!  I remember waking up laughing at the thought of her as a Mennonite, and since I'm in touch with a few of the SHS classmates, I had to message them about the dream.  One of them replied that perhaps we'd see her on next season's "Breaking Amish"!

 

When do you plan to move Chuck? And close to where you are now?

Hello Kelda!

I'm not 100% sure on "when" the move will take place, definitely sometime this year.   I plan on staying close to where I am now, the rents tend to be more affordable.

Maybe that was really just a "screening dream," and you were actually picked up by aliens.

Hiya BetterMost friends.

I think I want one of those bowling balls!   

Yes, it's bowling night tonight, so I'll be away from computer for the evening.  My team is holding their position in 6th place, we've been there for the past three weeks.  Not bad.



I'm thinking I may download Skype for my computer at home....I've heard a lot of good things about it, and the computer comes with a built-in camera, I may as well use it.

Oh great, something else to be worried about......

But, lucky for us, they brought you back. ...

I love Skype although I rarely use the camera but I speak with my sister every morning (in another country) for free. Neither of us wants to appear on screen first thing in the morning  but occasionally I have used it to show her something about my house.
Also moving to a new country I have had to ring back to Australia quite often, You know the thing "Your call is important to us but our lines are busy" It would have cost me a fortune on the phone but skype is so cheap even ringing a phone number. Just last week I had hassles with changing a hotel booking in Rome and they would not answer my emails but I was able to ring and thankfully they spoke English and told me they had received my emails .  I think it was less than 20 cents for the call.
You have to pay Au$16 and they top it up when you go below Au$3 but mostly I use it skype to skype which is free.

Hiya BetterMost friends.

That's what I wish I was doing now!     These late-night bowling matches are gonna be the death of me!  LOL  I'd quit the league if I didn't enjoy them so much!   Update of last night will be in the "Striking Out" section of my blog.

But, lucky for us, they brought you back. ...   

And what makes you think they wouldv'e wanted to keep me?     After about an hour they probably shot me back to my bed so fast.....

I have to say, I know NOTHING about Skype, but I guess I'll find out this weekend.     My computer monitor has a built in camera, which I didn't know how to work either, so last night when I was poking around the computer, I not only found the camera, I found the program for Skype, so I guess it's already on my computer, I just have to activate it.

Nick is really great with a camera!

I love both portraits!

Yes, Nick is really great with a camera!

Looking forward to skyping with you, Chuckie!
