Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, martini in the other, totally worn out and screaming,
"WOO HOO, what a ride!"

We finally took the plunge!

No, not that plunge. I've been happily, mostly (just kidding dear sweet hubby!), married for almost 24 years. We just got high speed internet!! (Hey, it's still a major commitment) We had enough of the dial-up connection out here in the boonies and we've been checking around for awhile. We found a good deal and had it hooked up a few days ago.

Woo hoo! We went from a painfully slow process that tied up the phone lines and phone cords to high speed, wireless with up to five computers able to use it at once! Well, you all may be used to it but it's pretty exciting for us. Of course that gives me fewer excuses for not getting stuff done on my blog...

  3. Yay! Welcome to the modern world! I remember when we switched over a few years back - we could never go back. It's like a bazillion times faster that dial up.

  8. I know what you mean. We were on poky speed -- not dial-up, but slow -- till last year and had to get on a waiting list to get high-speed. And, it's still not the lightning fast internet our relatives in big cities have. Oh, the joys of life in the boonies.

  9. I think it would be hard to maintain a blog and visit as many others as you do with dial up. Congratulations on your new toy. What will you do with all the extra time ?!
