Where Has The Week Gone ???

You can all call off the search party ... I'm here ... I'm no longer AWOL. I'm sorry if any of you were worried ... I'm OK ... just a very busy girl !!!

OK, now that's out of the way, how has your week been ?? As I mentioned, mine has been very busy. I have had an over-abundance of typing again, and have also been fiddling with my iPod, along with general house-wife / mumsy duties which keep me away from the computer. All this adds up to not being able to spend nearly enough time visiting with all you, my special blog-friends.

Do you like the flowers in my picture above ??? This photo was taken in Tibooburra (the place with the rocks beside the camp ground (see my earlier posts on our trip to Broken Hill). I have a bunch of other flower photos, which never ceased to amaze me, as these flowers just grow out of the ground or rocks, where there can't possibly be any nourishment ... go figure ??? I'm sorry I can't remember what this one was ... if it comes to me, I will let you know.

I've just come back from my local shopping centre, where I actually only just popped in to get some cat food, but ended up "gas-bagging" with a friend for an hour or so. We chatted about all sorts of things, as you do, and I somehow mentioned that I blog !!! Well, it turns out that my friend had not heard of blogging before, so I gave her a brief description, and my blog address, so hopefully she will come and visit. (Hi, Lisa, if you are reading this !!)

This got me thinking ... don't laugh, I do think sometimes !!! This little world of ours, that we take for granted, is really not all that well known. Obviously, WE all know what blogging is, but there is a whole lot of people out there that don't know what it is that we do. I think that is pretty strange, really. Are we some sort of secret society ??? Is it really such a special thing that we do ??? Although, thinking back to last year, before I started blogging ... I didn't know what it was either !! So, what does this all mean ?? Where am I heading with this topic ?? Who knows, really, just that I find it fascinating that something we really DO take for granted, is not really something that is known by all. Sad, really, as it has certainly opened up my eyes, and taught me so much about other people, cultures, countries ... whatever. I know that I, personally, try and talk about my blogging experiences as often as possible, and try to get new people involved all the time, as I know it is something I really enjoy, and feel that everyone should have the same opportunities that I have. I also know that I have made some wonderful new friends out of this experience ... you all know who you are !! Blogging has been such a positive, fun-filled experience for me, and I thank you all for being a huge part of it.

It seems Blogger is letting me (and hopefully all of you, too) post pictures again !! That was so frustrating early in the week ... Blogger sure can be a booger. I wonder how much all these problems have to do with the change over to Beta Blogger ??? I haven't changed over yet ... I'm waiting to be told by Blogger that it is my turn to change over ... hopefully they will do all the work for me !! I dread having to re-create my blog ... I like it the way it is. Or, is it a good opportunity for a change ?? Will Meow still be Meow without all her Meow things ??? Will it be like Superman without his costume ... no powers ??? Who know, we'll just have to wait and see. They say a change is as good as a holiday ... but I DON'T LIKE CHANGE very much !!

Anyway, I had better chooff off and do some more typing (bugger !!).

I hope you all have a stupendously fantabulous weekend. I don't have much planned again ... I hope to come visiting you all over the next couple of days.

Take care, hugs to you all ...

MEOW
