Nudge, nudge
Awww, this is cute, I got a 'nudge' from [info]sidherian to let me know that it's been 18 weeks since I posted.

Argh. It feels like it too. Thing is, when L was made redundant 2.5 years ago he had a business thing happening on the side so he decided to make it the main earner, if he could. And he took over the family pc with the internet access and it was hard to argue given my continued desire to eat and keep the kids in shoes and socks.

After 6 months I mentioned that I missed Journaling and could we perhaps, think of a way of letting me have some access before 8pm??? So he got a laptop with some kind of blue tooth connection and ran into the same problems with it that we have with mobile phones up here in the middle of nowhere. The reception doesn't.

Which means that I just cannot get at what used to be my machine at any time that suits me. The double whammy came when work installed a new improved filiter that wouldn't let LJ through on account of the porny underbelly and the disgraceful language contained in some of the most delightful entries and suddenly I can't even catch up on my FL over morning coffee.

That's the bad news, the good is that L has finally realised that survival is not success and a cash flow is not a profit. He's looking for contract work where you get paid the old fashioned way. By someone else.

I'm posting now 'cos he's off being interviewed.

May the Force be with him.

We're running out of shoes and socks.

hey, just noticed that my e-mail client has been holding onto outgoing messages recently, including one I wrote you several weeks ago and one from today. I *think* I've got them sent to you now, but wanted to double check via LJ, just in case they don't show up in your box...
