Arrrgh…..where to start?? Red Eagle has been kind enough to set me up with this blog. I’m rather new to this world, although I have visited a few blogs which have been suggested to me. Frankly, I’m amazed that she would take me on, because I am a technological idiot. T…..you get extra brownie points and a lot of polish on your halo for your good works! <G>
For those of you who choose to follow along, who don’t know me, you’ll see people call me Buffy or Kitty. My family calls me Kitty; Buffy is my on-line alias. I started chatting in the spring of 1999. I was sitting at the computer trying to get into a chatroom, and was faced with the dilemma of needing a NAME. “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” was on in the background, and I simply appropriated her name. I’m about as far as you can get from Buffy in real life, but that was fine with me. Unfortunately, now everyone knows me as Buffy, so I’m sorta stuck with it. Besides, I can NEVER think of a name when I need it. I loved the guy who named his boat "Cutty's Ark." Why can't I think of things like that!?
I live in the Chicago suburbs, and am married to the famous, or infamous, Fred. That’s the Fred who fell off the roof in November and severely sprained an ankle, and the same Fred who tried to bring down a thief who was eight inches taller and 25 years younger, and the same Fred who limped for months when he ripped a hamstring chasing said thief! This is also the same Fred who is addicted to sailing, who makes me a boat widow every summer. I swear I’m going to take an axe to that boat one day!
In another life, I was a grade school band director. In this life I am an office. My mother lives with us, and she has reached the point in her life where she no longer drives, so I am her chauffeur. Two of my passions are gardening and quilting. You’ll see me bitch about weeds on a daily basis for the next six months. The other addiction seems to be communicating on-line.
I’m at a point where I find the quirks of life interesting. Perhaps some of you will find them interesting, too.
I'm delighted to be here. Thanks again Red Eagle!
you're no more of a technological idiot than anyone else dear...
and you're very welcome, but hon, my halo was gone longggggg ago, if I ever had one *s*
welcome to the 'blog world'
Thanks for the welcome, and for all the help! I'm delighted to be here. I don't know that I agree with you about the halo, but I know better than to argue.
ROFLMAO@ T's halo ~ sorry couldn't resist ~ but God she is a dream isn't she? How is my Defer baby doing? Give hubby a hug and kiss from me *S*
Hey Buffy.. welcome aboard - Jamie sent me here. Nice home you have, and it sounds like you had some excellent help in getting it all in place and working... three cheers to Red Eagle!
Jamie, Defer is coming back a lot more slowly this time. We got him to eat yesterday, but not really enough, so we'll just have to see if he has the will to pull through. I'll give them both a kiss, as long as you remember that I DON'T SHARE!!!
Hi, Desiree! Thanks for visiting! Red Eagle has been spectacular setting things up for me. I feel like a kid on Christmas Morning! I think she's earned a halo even though she denies it. I'll have to come visit your blog and see what's going on there.
