"Toto...I don't think we're in Kansas anymore."

Well it may not be MSN Spaces. It's not WordPress...didn't like it there and only a couple of my friends found me. I hope this is my new "home". Thanks to Herman who lead to Bloggers. It's taken a couple day to set up my new "home", lots more needs to be done to really feel homey here but that will come over time. 

First I want to welcome all my blogging friends old and new. Grab a chair and settle in for a cup. We all have lots of catching up to do! It's been a year since my last blog on Spaces. Other than those I meet on facebook I don't know much of what 's happening in blog land. It was very heart breaking when I found out about Curtis' passing. The night before his death, he sent me an e-mail wishing me a happy birthday the next day. I wish he were still around many will miss his stories and encouraging comments. :(

Well I don't know if you know of a computer addition going around. It seems to be most prevalent among middle aged women. Many of my friends from blogland have it...it's called "Farmville". Even Dr. Phil confronted a women. on his program: "In a recent show, he tackled a terrible affliction currently gripping the nation in its hay-covered grasp, the Facebook application FarmVille. Dr. Phil asked his guest, a mother named Teresa, the hard-hitting questions on her battle with growing crops and raising chickens.
"Are you worried about your crops as you sit here?" he said.
"Before I came here, I made sure that none of the crops were going to die," Teresa replied.
"There aren't really any crops," Dr. Phil informed her. "That's just a little image on a screen. They're not going to die."

Well that's what happened to me last February when I took a mid winter vacation...even when I am working I'll spend 2 hours a day on it. I am so addicted to Farmville but I want a life! 

My Farmville
Well I missed blogging and blog walking so much. I love you guys (blush). I have other new/stories from the past year. These will have to wait for another day. They include to engagements, death of a beloved dog, and adoption of a new puppy. To be continued ....

Hugs, Faye

  4. Hi Faye - I'm here from Herman's blog. I remember seeing your name when I'd visit Curtis and Herman. Yes, we were all so sad when Curtis passed away. Although we knew he had been ill, it was still shocking. :(

    I haven't yet played any of the games on F/B - I'm afraid to actually. lol

    Hope you're having a good day, and I'll visit again!

  6. Hi Faye,
    Nice to see you back to blogging. I am so gld you chose to go with blogspot. it will make it much easier for me to keep in touch as I left SPACES a few years ago.
    I was also shocked to know Curtis had passed away. I had been out of blog visiting for a few months, and just learned of his loss recently.
    Sorry aboout you dog but know you will be enjoying your pup.

    Hugs, Susan
