@Astrid: I'm on a learning curve as far as 'scheduling' future posts! One escaped, but I captured it again!

Hey Broad, why can't I access your latest post? It appears on my list of blogs as posted yesterday but try as I might, the only thing I get is 'page not found.' Please tell your computer that I think it's fibbing...or maybe it's my computer hiding your stuff because its jealous? In any event I want to read it and I can't...can you advise?

Hello there,

Wishing you a Happy Christmas.. hope you will pay me a visit

I totally understand. Once I start cruising the blogs of my friends, I get nothing else done. Add in cruising the blogs of my enemies and, well, that just takes FOREVER!

@ Rosaria: I must remember that: "The season for indulgences"!
@Perpetua: As you may have noticed, as far as posting every day or every other day -- I am a complete failure! 2 or 3 times a week is a more likely possibility. I agree, blogging is much more entertaining than most television -- I just can't wean myself away from sitting in front of the fire!

Give yourself a break, Broad, and enjoy that nap and cup of tea! I really know what you mean about time flying when blogging or reading and commenting! Today is my reading and comment day. Maybe tomorrow, I'll write a new post. Or maybe the day after.....

You and me and a whole host of other bloggers too, sister.
It's too bad, but it can't be helped.
Feeling better yet? Listen to your wise old auntie Friko, she who can dawdle away a day without any prompting and whose usual speed, if left to her own devices, is slow, slower, slowest. I haven't yet come to a dead stop, but I'm working on it.

You just described my life and that is scary. I amble too and never get where I am going. Even though I'm not sure where I'm going.
Retirement is that way. We have the freedom to have tea, a nap, a slow amble to town, a nap, tea, etc etc. Like you if I blog then I don't have time to read everyone's blog. So I pick and choose and do whatever I'm lead to do at that moment.

2011-12-17T19:59:20.817Z

Gosh, you set your sights high, Broad. I decided when I started blogging that I'd aim for 3 times a week max and usually it's less than that. Like you I love reading other blogs and commenting and reckon to spend at least as much time on that, as on writing my own blog. The problem is that it's too easy to add great new blogs to the ones I follow. Sigh....

Mind you, the

You try to post every day or every other day? Good on yer Broad...I live alone and I'm lucky if I post once a week. I think it's called procrastination...hehehehehe. But keep it up dearie...I love reading about your exploits...as to tea...hmmmm, I wonder how hard it would be to teach my Bichon mix, Sophie, to put the kettle on?

It is the season for indulgences, and a nap is right up there. Happy Holidays.

@liz: it's good to know I'm not alone with this problem! Turn off the computer? ;-)

@SP: I love it, too. Maybe it's that Puritan guilt thing -- if you like something it must be wrong! I've promised myself to put some cookies together this afternoon. Haven't made cookies for a long time -- too busy blogging!

I'm with the Hattatts...just a pity that people around me seem to need to eat and drink at distressingly frequent intervals.

2011-12-17T09:20:31.532Z

Hello Katherine:
We should, if we were you, make a virtue out of all of this. In fact we should trade on the amount of time which it takes us to do a single thing as a reason for never getting round to so many of life's activities which are either too tedious for words or are things one inherently dislikes.

After all, life is rather too short to waste time polishing the kettle

I know, once I get engrossed in the blogs that I follow, the time just whizzes by.

I've no complaints though, I love it.

2011-12-17T09:07:38.624Z

G'day Broad. I know exactly what you mean. Once I start looking at all the blogs I follow and then try to leave a comment on most of them, the time has flown by. Some days I seem to spend more time on the computer than doing anything else. There is really never enough time in the day for me to do everything that I plan.Speaking of which,it's now time to get hubby and I something to eat,
