Talking to Myself and Vivi Awards Update

Ok, I swore, absolutely and positively that I would make no entries until the alerts were back in order because I simply did not feel like talking to myself.  Quite a change from when I first started my journal with 0 comments and didn't mind a bit.  Ya know, a girl gets used to having more than a couple of comments.  I can hold out no longer because I just love to jabber.

I have been getting alerts for comments (lol..what comments but no alerts for entries.)  I hear the UK is up and running again.  I don't think the US is yet.  So, some have had to take it to snail mail to let us know that they have posted.  And that is quite all right with me...keep the snail mail coming.

Now, if this isn't a wonderful impression to make on this community while pushing the VIVI awards.  As a matter of fact, I'm going to toot my own horn because I am on the committee for the VIVI awards...whoo hoo!  Jackie is the chairwoman/person and asked me.  I jumped on the chance so if you have any suggestions or comments/ideas, whatever, you can let me know and I'll pass it on.  Under consideration and serious consideration is the private journals.  So, if you have concerns, now is the time to voice them.  I would love to see awards happen that everyone, or most everyone, consider fair.  The committe is listed below so if you have any brainstorms, let any one of us know.  We have a meeting coming up shortly

I'm off to try and get some journals read.  It is so time consuming because I can't fit them all in my sidebar and then have to trudge through my favorites which is total chaos.  I know I'm missing some.

 

Boy, it has been quiet around this place with Joey on vacation.  Grizzly is super whacko by the time I get home from work and mauls me for at least 5 minutes.  But quiet is nice and...yeah...no grocery shopping.

 

Ooops, and...I bought my magnet to send in the magnet thingie!  Of course, I blew the postcard game.  Pittsburgh is a sad town.  No stores in the downtown area anymore, and Hallmarks are vanishing daily.  Now, funny thing is, when I was looking for magnets, all I could find was postcards...go figure.  Well, there is one lone Hallmark left by our Walmart here in the sticks and voila....I found the magnet that just jumped out at me.  So, my magnet buddy will be getting their magnet.  Of course, I have the worst time keeping a secret....grrrr....but I'm really excited.

I'm off to drag my trash to the curb.  Should have done it when I got home from work.  Now, it's dark already and wet since it rained again.  LOL..send me the 12 step program for the computer addict.....
