the perils of blogging unseen -- the author's aside

After my last success at accessing the internet (hurrah! -- to be
pronounced with a British accent -- hur-aah) and re-reading my posts, I
realize that I come across as a bit whiny, with multiple comments on the
power, internet, etc. And also a poor speller/grammatician (see, I
think even that's misspelled). Please rest assured that your prayers
have carried me through with a cheerful heart and patience for the
issues as they arise. Mostly I meant to convey that I was trying
desperately to keep my loyal readers posted on what was up, and even if
not communicating well, was thinking of each of you. With that out of
the way, back to less complaining things.....
