Then one of them fails us.

Oh me. Oh dear. Oh my world is falling apart.

Now this entry may or may not make it through cyberspace. I haven't figured yet whether is the computer or the ISP. I suspect the latter. And it's driving me nuts!

I'm reading but leaving no comments. Why? Because sometimes I get "This page cannot be displayed" and my comment has been obliterated. I tried three times to send a comment and finally gave up. I click on an entry, and I get the same message. Then I try again and the entry comes up, but it takes several minutes.

I tried to send a reply to an e-mail and only the first sentence made it.

So until I figure out what's wrong, I'll be reading, but don't expect to hear from me until I can get this mess figured out.

MSN Messenger still works. After I've tried logging on 2 or 3 times.

I can still play solitaire.

But anything involving communications works reluctantly.

And the mail keeps piling up, but I can't devote 12 hours at the puter working thru all the mail. And that's how long it would take (at a guess) to get through everything, at the rate it takes to bring up one items, read it, then delete it. In fact, sometimes it takes 15 to 20 mimutes just to get logged on.

OH,yeah, and sometimes when I want to delete something, I get the message that "some items cannot be deleted." Why? So I try again, and they go away.

And another thing: at the top of the page I get the message "Action canceled." But I'm looking at the thing that was supposedly cancelled.

So.

I'm wading through, but not very patiently.

Maybe my computer literate friend will get here pretty soon and get me straightened out, or maybe I'll be sending out emails will my new address.

We'll see. In the meantime, I'm still here. Just not communicating.

And I hope this gripe manages to make it through cyberspace.

Shalom
