I may go back to the computer later *setting the timer again*...i'm sometimes referred to as 'the timer queen'
I set timers for everything- when I 'm quilting I set a timer so I don't get so involved I spend way too much time & forget to stop & eat...or work til i'm so sore I can hardly move. timers help me get things done.
This sounds like a get idea. I get lost in serendipity trips on the internet all the time. I am just curious...not a bad thing, but time does fly by.
