Well,my computer is clipping right along.I am switching pretty fast from topic to topic.And looking at pictures etc.I did a little blog asking a question even,and it was uploaded imediately.Could it be the weather maybe with the storms?As there is a lot of tornatic weather thru the midwest tonight.Just a thought.

Let us dwell on the positive for there is far to much negative out there in the world. I like making lemonade with those lemons.

I'm with you, we need to work on the positive and let the negative go then we'll feel better. I love fresh lemonade made with real lemons!

Please, check your computer..It just might need a defrag to clean out the hard drive....also dump the contents of no longer used folders....stuff like that. The slow loading pix is a clue that is happening because of too much stuff in your electronic system.

I've not experienced any of the myriad of problems being mentioned, so maybe I'm just lucky--but lets try to be more appreciative of a wonderful service we're receiving--for FREE. rusty

Amend! I just love this board and have learned so much from it.....I feel very fortunate to have found it and am grateful and appreciative to all those who contribute.

Me too! You can't imagine how much I enjoy the inspiration, information and friends I have found on this board! and even better, I have laughed myself silly now and then! Jeannie

I for one am very thankful that Admin took an unbelieveable amount of time to create this unprecedented board for quilters. Personally I know of no where else on the internet that provides all this board offers free or even with a fee. The accumulated years of knowledge of the members is extraordinary and their willingness to share and help others is beyond comparison.

We all should be thankful for what this amazing board has given to us in more ways than just our shared love of quilting.

My sentiments exactly :thumbup:

So, so true!!
