#8 making life oh so simple!!!

Whacko, this was the simple one!! In fact, it took a lot of time, only because I was absorbed in the task of finding RSS feeds that I'd want to see. I learnt how to delete the ones I decided were a bit too precious or weighty!

It remains to be seen how this will work in my life. It's all new and seems impressive, but I need to use it a bit for a proper evaluation. I imagine I will be first with the latest : that the information will come through to me rather than my spending ages trawling for it on the net, waiting to hear about it or reading endless newspapers and journals. I've tried to find useful feeds for work and for news : might need to refine these after a trial period. And might need to report later on just how useful it is!

And now, (hoping this will remain a simple task and my self-esteem will remain intact!) the URL :

Hokey Pokey, originally uploaded by FredoAlvarez.

I found a pic of this saying when I first looked at flickr. You might imagine I could easily find it again, but, after trawling through umpteen zillion pics, I accept that that one is lost forever. I think some 1700 pics had been uploaded each minute after I saw it, which is a bit overwhelming. Is this all people do on a Sunday? This version is the next best thing.

I have played The Waifs "Shelter Me" twice while I have been trying to complete this simple little task. Miraculously, what seems impossible (and frazzling and exasperating and sweat producing and frustrating and aaaaarrrrgggghhh!!!) suddenly clicks over and is possible!

Would that the hokey pokey was what it's all about!!

Slightly less than stunning

.....But not so easy that I got it quite right the first time. Did I copy & paste the right URL or the one that appears when I write? Did I realise that birtdates have to be the American way or I would end up being an Aries? And..did I remember my username when I wanted in again???

I am viewing my problems as challenges!!

I am congratulating myself! I have just created my first blog! And, thank you - it was stunningly easy.
