I was standing, or rather jiggling about, in the doorway of the church hall kitchen as the sun reflected off my sequinned jumper. Then it occurred to me that the man carrying a tray full of dirty mugs waiting to come into the kitchen might not appreciate my delaying.
"Sorry!"
Another fall of snow over-night meant that there were only a few of us in church yesterday. While the main roads were clear the side roads and pavements were all lethal so many thought it wise to give it a miss. Monty, who was supposed to be speaking in the meeting was struck down by flu. (Huh, I expect he has the same as everyone else but being a man has taken to his bed and called it flu!) So on Saturday afternoon, Debbie, one of the deacons, phoned and asked if I'd be willing to speak for about five minutes on my hopes for 2026.
become a best-selling author - chance negligible to nil;
lose weight - chance low;
continue my pilgrimage in search of grace - chance high.
We shall see.

I can't remember if I've written about Microsoft 365 and the fact that, as a trustee, I could get a free copy. Husband, at my nagging, has been trying to get it sorted for ever since, with no luck. But with everything stopping working, Outlook for example, and all my storage being full, he's tried again on my new computer. Still no joy so has finally, much against his principles, agreed to us paying for 365 for me.
So I'm just getting to grips with it. Husband has shown me the post-it notes. Potentially very useful though I doubt if they'll replace my scraps of paper, likewise the To Do list. But I shall continue exploring.

Boud showed us a weaving thing she made from a piece of corrugated cardboard. It reminded me that I'd saved a piece of packaging, just because it was pretty and a bit honeycomby. I will do nothing with it except maybe pack something. It does seem a shame.

The weaving thing is a loom! That honeycomb thing is valuable. You could use it as a stencil for decorative paint spraying -- on flowerpots maybe. Yes, keep it. Thanks for the shoutout.
Continuing with your scraps of paper may well be a lifesaver. I use the onscreen post-it notes at work. Occasionally they disappear and don't work for a while. Eventually they come back but when I don't have them it drives me mad. We're not supposed to save anything on paper at our desks for privacy reasons. Since I work at home, do they really think Princess is going to steal account information to use?
Probably. Now I suspect her, too.
Love,
Janie
I prefer to buy the stand alone Office suite. There's no cloud storage for files, but I would prefer to keep them on my personal computer hard drive anyway.
For as much as I use 365, it doesn’t seem worth it. Oh well, there subscriptions have become a part of life.
I avoid 365. use opensource SW instead
