excusez-moi s'il vous plaît


Yes, please!

Between Blogger acting crazy this week and my laptop acting wonky I haven't been able to post lately. Laptop (the one in which I download all the house photos) is off to the computer-doctor for a few days, so I will see you when it returns!
excusez-moi



Oh, and did I tell you our big news?!
No????! Are you sure?!  I could have sworn I told you....
well,  next time then;););)

    "did I tell you our big news?!"

    You mean the major HUGE magazine that called and asked could they send photographers and feature your house in a cover story? To which you replied: why yes, but you must wait until the floors are down in the barn room, and placement of things in there has been completed. They agreed, and then you inked the deal. That one?

    So not fair!!! You are a tease. You have discovered something wonderful in the house, you're having lunch with another famous designer,Ella is pregnant, I could go on and on.
    Please hurry and tell!

    LOL you are funny! Now that's just not nice to leave us all hanging on "the big news"... I keep hearing about problems with blogger and I've had none- other than when blogger was actually down there a few weeks back. I've heard to "clear your cache and cookies" works and to NOT use internet explorer for your browser. I find it shocking that anyone uses internet explorer anyway, the Firefox browser seems to be the favorite!

    Welllllllllll, computers, a love/hate relationship for sure. I had problems with mine recently and had it fixed???? but still acting up. I think it is time for a new one but my DH hates to hear me say that. Too bad.

    I can't wait to hear what your BIG news is and it would not surprise me in the least if it was one of the better magazines that wanted to do an article on you home. Yes, excellent guess. BTW, your email was very helpful, resolved the problem. {{{HUGS}}} to you.

    Look forward to hearing your news. :)

    I reckon those IT guys at Blogger need to lay off the Herb Superb at break times if you get my drift. Not sure what's going on with them but if I was their Manager they'd all be on their Final Warnings!!! So much to catch up on in the Land of Joan & Dan, will need to do it tonight over a glass of bubbles in front of the computer!

    The key word is "our". Perhaps the major news is your pregnant.
