Hello Jeannine - I have that problem too, so I have to make the most of it while the OH is out at work! 

It is now a week since the parcel was sent - hope it turns up soon.   The address was very long - hope the postman managed to read it all!

We're lucky here - my youngest teenage daughter was given a portable computer when she left her old school.

There is a policy here of every child aged 14/15 having a portable computer for school work - and after those two years they get to keep them!  Ok, they aren't using the most up-to-date of systems, but they work - frees up the house computer for mum and dad!   :D

Wow, it is moving along nicely,well done to you all, it was a very long list and I think it made it to most of you still in time to plant..

I can't be doing with this shared computer thingy. I took off my laptop to return it to work for a new one and there has been a hold up, it is there  in the cupboard but has to be got going by the IT fella who has 15 to do bless him so I am on a list.I am always complaining that John spends too much time on his so he usually races through to his room if I turn mine on, now I can't..so I can't really blame him for sulking if I spend time on his!!!

Keeping touch as best I can.

Back after a few weeks in bed with a slipped disc, I'm pleasantly surprised to read at my first visit to A4A that the parcel is due to arrive in a few days!

If the parcel is that big, I hope my disc will not slip again! ;)

Lo and behold! The parcel arrived yesterday.
Being at home, recovering, I have spent a day sorting through the contents. And there was some really nice stuff in there too!

The package is now on its way to Ruud, so it won't be long before it will reach Jeannine.
Will you start another round or do you have an enormous garden?
