R. Linda:
Because some enquiring minds have sent me private emails with the subject titles: "Where are you?", "Are you OK?", "What happened NOW?", "Are you dead?". Yes, lovely stuff like that. I have been busy putting back my photos on early blog entries. Sometime back in me history I noticed a lot of my photos around the Internet with other people taking credit for them. Well, at first I didn't care, but then I realised I copyrighted me blog so they shouldn't be on the Internet being used without me blog's permission. At the time not in the mood for a million lawsuits, I simply deleted ALL my early photos. Then some people wrote me privately complaining they recommended a story that had photos to their friends, and there were no photos and the photos being gone took away from the hilarity of the story. OK, OK, OK!!! I got it.
So the process now is having ALL the photos copyrighted in their own right (as more recent ones are), and the going so be S L O W. So I haven't forgotten the blog, I be "fixing" it back. Stories are not changed in any way, just photos being put back with copyright.
I am someplace on the 600th story, so I'm WORKING ON IT!
I will throw this in for your possible amusement in the meantime. I have one kiddo who has a learning disability and our schools up here don't cater too much to that sort of thing. So he has been enrolled in a private programme to address his reading skills. He goes an hour a day and started last week. Mam picked him up from his class and asked him how it went.
"UGH!" said he, "I just wanna go home and take a nap!"
"Why's that?" Mam bit.
"It was like 2 HOURS sittin'. I needs me a nap!"
"Well, don't be so grumpy about it," Mam said, " I don't see why sitting for ONE hour would make you knackered enough you need kip. Didn't ya do any work?"
"Yeah read a book about the Titanic."
"Well, there ye go, your favourite subject. That should have been a good read, not something to make you all wore out there ye silly."
There was silence in the backseat for a few moments and he said to her: "Why don't ya take my tired-out self to Dunken Donuts, I could use a coffee and a doughnut about now. Might fix the problem."
Oh boy is he like his father or what? I be proud the boyo IS.
Anyway, she took him to Dunks and bought him a breakfast sannie and because she's suicidal she bought him a large blue raspberry colada with whipped cream. Yup, keep him up it will, but wired too.
Just thought I'd share a kiddie story, I know not your favourite kind, but I be busy with photos and probably legally blind by now.
