It would be so nice if we could just get together and have a cup of coffee together every morning!!! I would just love that! We'd start each day with a lot of laughter!!!

Diana, is so right!!! And wish we could meet for a cup of coffee. Wouldn't that be fun!!!!

[gja1000]

Yes! It would be a blast!!! I would sincerely love that.

You know, I talk about my "internet friends" quite a bit but my friends here just don't understand. We are so close, we do know a lot about each other, and what's going in in each of our lives. It would just be so cool if we could just sit down and chat in person!!!

[Janet]

I would love love love that!!! You're all welcome here anytime...lol.

Well, Janet and I are both up early this Saturday mornin'!!! Where are the rest of ya???

[DianaB]

I went to the garage sales. Then I came home to.........well, I'm going to have to show you the pictures as soon as I can get the program downloaded on my computer, but I have to find the stupid disk first!!!!! (Can you tell that I've already looked and can't find it?) I have kids.

I had a bay fishing tournament today, and was it ever hot!!!! There was hardly any wind. We were on a small (4 person) fishing boat all day with no shade. I wade fished some and it felt good to be standing in the water instead of an the hot boat.

I feel completely exhaused!!!

I think I would be exhausted for the rest of the week! I know you had fun - did you catch any good fish???

[Marilyn]

I caught a hard head and a very small redfish. The fishing was not good. Not sure if it's due to the salinity of the bay or what. No rain affects the bay's, too.

Hey Everyone!
Just wanted to let you know that it is ME who is "losing it", not Janet.

I restarted my computer this evening and a little icon at the top of the screen was blinking after the restart. It was annoying me (it doesn't take much anymore to annoy me. LOL!) I tried clicking it, but couldn't figure out why it was blinking.

I finally realized that it was my bluetooth icon on the computer so I thought, "Well, I'll stop that blinking, I'll just turn off the bluetooth".

So I did, I turned it off.

Next, I go about my business on the computer and all of a sudden, my keyboard isn't working. I'm thinking, "Well, great, something is wrong with my keyboard, what is wrong with the darned keyboard"

Then, slowly and painfully, I remember that a few months ago, I spilled a drink on my wired keyboard and it wouldn't work. I had an old wireless keyboard with my laptop, so I got it out, put in new batteries, and synced it with the BLUETOOTH on my computer and suddenly I realize.....

The blinking bluetooth was telling me the batteries on my keyboard were low and needed to be changed.

Don't you know I felt stupid!!! I used this wireless keyboard with my laptop for about 3 years before I got my desktop computer (2 years ago). I don't know how many times I saw that little blinking icon and knew it was time to change the batteries.

GEESH! I'm LOSING IT!!!

I'm not "losing it" because I never had it. I've never had a good memory, so I work with lists and reminders. It's a normal thing for me not to remember what a blinking light is. If I could just get Harold to stop saying, "I told you that" and "We talked about that". I tell him just to play along with me and repeat things again.

No, I don't think we're "losing it". I think we just have too much to remember at our ages!

[Janet]

You don't know how relieved I am to know it's just not me losing it, but sorry to read it's affecting you too....

[DianaB]

I am just ONE OF US!!! Absolutely without question!!! And I am sooooo glad!!!

[Marilyn]

Wow, so we are all losing it!!!! At least we have company in this discovery!!! LOL You all make me feel so much better. I'm so worried about early onset alzheimers. Guess it's just normal stuff we are all experiencing.
