I got to thinking this morning that maybe my friend had something come up and she didn't make it to the craft night event last night, either. So this morning about 10:30am, I gave her a call and the first words out of her mouth were "where were you last night?" Almost like she was mad that I hadn't shown up. Anyway, I explained to her that since she invited me and since she knew that I had never been to her church before, I just figured she was going to pick me up. She said that since she's told me in the past where their church was located and that she really didn't want to go out of her way to pick me up, that I'd be driving myself over there. It amazes me too because she knows I don't like to be out on the road after dark by myself, but maybe she forgot that part. Anyway she apologized for the misunderstanding so all is well. Next time, we'll clarify the details ! Tomorrow, is her birthday and I even had a little gift and a card for her, all ready to give her last night. Now she'll just have to wait until I can take it over to her house during the daylight hours.
I've added links on my side bar to the journals for our dear friends Sugar and Jeannette, both recently diagnosed with cancer. Please pay them a visit and remember them in your thoughts and prayers as you go thru your day to day activities.
I've recently acquired a reconditioned Compaq laptop. Today I'm going over to this great little PC fix-it place, not too far from here, to get the wireless card and anything else I need to get it up and running. It will be fun to have a portable PC. I'm hoping Bob and I can make some trips to the beach and maybe even southern California to see his daughter and her family and this way, I'll have my AOL close at hand. :)
Happy Saturday, until next time.......Linda

Oh that's too bad about the confusion and that you missed the craft night. I like those craft things. Hopefully it will all work out next time. Hugs,

Well, at least you know what happened! Yes, I read about Jeannette. I am sad for her, as I know she is really scared about all of it. I don't think I know Sugar. Still, it is too bad for her, too. Jae
