Eureka: I fund it!

Incredible! I think I fund out why it wasn't working: I was using firefox and somehow when I use that browser, it does strange things to Blogit (page too wide, text disapear when changing paragraph etc.). So, I decided maybe that was it, it's the b....y browser the problem! Therefore, this morning I... Sign in to see full entry.

Hyperlinks mystery...

Well, I tried and tried and tried and still no success. I wrote an entry into the community help, I sent an e-mail to the admin. of Blogit and still nothing. It is the first time ever that I can't make a hyperlink work! I have links everywhere throughout my web-site (www.journey-to-germany.com)... Sign in to see full entry.

Finally, a cardinal came to see me!

I saw a beautiful cardinal this morning. It was the first one I see for a long time; since the ice-storm actually. And it just sat there in front of me on the deck ( I was inside sitting at the dining table). After the ice-storm disaster, ten years ago, many bird populations went down in the area....

So proud of myself! Or so "Fool"?

That's it: I now officially have a calender on the e-market! It took a while to make: choosing the right pictures, choosing the right month for the right pic., downloading them, re-sizing a few, reviewing it all again and again and then clicking on the publishing button for "public" view! But it's... Sign in to see full entry.

Snowy Hills...again!

After 14 years living here, we finally, unfortunately, see a house across the river on the hill opposite our own. Just too... Sign in to see full entry.

Mouse and Calenders

No mouse last night or the night before. It might have remember the flying bit and went to another part of the house! No much news; I'm going ahead with the idea of making a few desserts for Xmas, to sell to old customers and friends. Fund a nice web site to print calenders for family and friends;...

The flying mouse

Because my Mann has been sick with a cold, sneezing, coughing etc. for a week now, I've decided to go sleep in the extra bedroom downstairs. I was about to fall asleep when I heard a cruntch-cruntch. Now, for having live in the country side for some time, I know perfectly well who makes that sound.... Sign in to see full entry.

The car's can opener...

Since I've been helping out with Freeman and looking after his cats when he's in the hospital, I have in my car a can opener. It is still there because on more than one occasion I couldn't find his. So, every time I drive someone somewhere, they inevitably ask: What's that for in your car? And every... Sign in to see full entry.

To Bribe or not to Bribe...

Before starting this entry, let us take a moment of silence in memory of all who died during the WWI. Thank you. Now, back to business, the show must go on... The subject today is Bribery. It is extremely difficult to get a family MD in West Québec (worse place in Québec) and to see him/her when... Sign in to see full entry.
