Good bye rainy email

There, I'll bet that had you puzzled. The title is a distillation of 3 topics for today's post, which won't be very long itself. And what better way to brevity than those useful bullet points:

  • Good bye for a few days - we're going to stay at a country resort tonight, then on to our place near Castlemaine. Some of you may have thought I have said good bye to this blog as I don't post so frequently, but...I'm busy doing other things, like teaching myself how to make pop up cards and books. Fun! (See Val's motto in the sidebar)

  • It's raining fairly solidly, let's hope it's getting into the reservoirs and dams.

  • My email has been rejecting notification of your comments, although they still appear on the blog. I may have to switch to another email address if this doesn't get fixed. Sorry if your comments bounce back.

Well, those bullet points weren't so brief after all.

I hope you aren't in hiding after the footy last night... that was as good a game as it gets, no matter who won it, but it was nice that it was the Lions.

No doubt you have already departed but I hope you have a wonderful few days. Been raining here too. Best sound in the world.

Love your motto and we should all try to adopt it:-) With the nicer weather finally here, I'm spending less time at the computer...I love blogging but I also love being outside! lol Have a great time at your place in Castlemaine and see you when you get back:-) xoxo

Enjoy your break. Did you celebrate Australia 's World Cup victory? Here in India we were pretty disappointed at our early dismissal

Cris said...

Have fun! Sometimes my blog notifications do not come through and I am always surprised by new comments .

Have a wonderful time.

That problem with the email seems to be confined to Australia. You, Merle, Peter that I can remember.

Glad you finally have some rain. I've been reading about the drought.

Most of the comments in UK and Australia bounce back to me, but also some of them in the US too. No rhyme or reason..
Have a wonderful time on your getaway.

Hi Val,
Thanks for your advice in the comment section of my blog on April 21st, 22 -- Ginny and I followed your advice about a car advocate and it worked fine for us. I wrote about it this morning (May 1) and gave you credit for help from far away. Thanks.

Enjoy your trip to Castlemaine and post again soon.

I'm so glad you've had some rain Val! I sincerely hope it was enough to help fill the reservoirs and dams.
I've had a few of my comments bounce back recently from your blog. Glad to know you're seeing them though.
Glad you got away for a few days!
