Hi all . . . this is just a quick note to say that I just got the computer up and running a couple of days ago – and then started work a couple of days ago – and so there will be more stuff up in here soon – I am working on what they call a ‘system’ – so chew on that!

Until then – here are a couple of back to back Ants to keep your clouds floating!

This very morning – I was woken by my dog (Irving Brown Socks) rustling at the foot of the bed. It is good that he did rustle – as I was in the kind of sleeping mood that could have lasted for the next several days (or so).

Back to the point – a bit – though . . . So the dog moves – I sit up to look at him (all the way down at the foot of the bed) – and then he turns, looks at me and burps.

It was an odd moment – and an even odder way to start the day up.

[This was just a tiny quick update (kind of an attempt to put a bit more things up besides just the ants and really long long stories . . . we shall see how that goes – though).]
