I have been offline for over 48 hours. When it began I was mildly irritated and started to fiddle with wires, pull wires out and jam in forcefully, swear and curse my limited computer knowledge. Then it continued , as many times as I tried to connect it would not work.
Now a slight sweat is breaking out, I have sweaty palms , shallow breathing, you know the sort of thing.
Since then I have spent 2 hours of my life on the phone to Bombay (again) and finally after much fannying about they have fixed it. when it connected the relief and joy that washed over me was immense.
how I missed you...
This has made me realise that I cannot live my life like this. The computer is my life line to everyone I love and care about. I connect with them on a daily or weekly basis. Even something small like receiving a photo of a friends baby or a little email from someone wondering how I am means so much to me. I want to be near these people to connect on a personally.
Even by being offline for 2 days I missed the run up to a dear friends scan . My mum missed her daily dose of Lily and Lily missed her daily dose of her mad singing nana.
I miss all these people and want to live my life along with Kristian and Lily near them. It must happen soon or I will be very , very sad.
Tonight I have had my fix of my mum and dad and a lovely chat with Caroline (until Amy woke up :( hope she went back down nicely) All is back to normal and for now my link is secure.
Lily and I had an hour at the park yesterday as the sun emerged from the grey skies for the day. We saw the ducks and ran around and then went to the playpark. I felt so sorry for Lily as she has started to show an interest in other children. She was going right up to them and even tried to touch the one little girls hand. I let her have a go on the slide and she loved it having many , many more goes after it. I must make an effort to find a toddler group I like so she can socialize a bit with other kids.
So thats me back with you all , I know its only 2 days but it felt like a lifetime to me. Technology is a fine thing indeed

Technology indeed. At least you have power!! Thanks for the updated, I had wondered where you'd been. The internet is a wonderful link to the world and my life, too, would be really empty without it!!
Lots of love,

I know how important this 'box' is as it is my lifeline to see how my beautiful grandson is growing up so far away from us, and also to see how my son and wonderful daughter-in-law are enjoying their life in Canada. I also take a great interest in how life is progressing in SA, Keep up the good work you have an adorable daughter and it is wonderful to watch her growing up. x
Well i live for a little hello from you every day even if it's just a very quick chat it makes me feel like you're not actually all that far away. So yes, the last two days have been a bit scary and weird!
Welcome back and stay where you are please!
Love the dolly pics - oh how i used to love my dollies

Your previous post made me laugh so much, I never get to pee alone anymore, unless it is during Bayden's nap. Nice hey!! And sleeping in never happens anymore, I gave birth to a morning person, unlike myself.
I know how you feel about the internet. I have to check it everyday to see how people are doing and what is happening in their lives, it is AWFUL when you can't get online.
Glad you are online again and good luck with your toddler group hunt.

This blog makes me sad!!!! Won't be long before you are home for a bit. I don't think the weather is helping either. Sun is a wonderful tonic. Yes a nice toddlers group would be nice get cracking and get out yourselves with some friends or have friends around. So important. Love and miss you all lots and lots. Mum xxxx
