patience is a virtue, my grandma always said

(And she was right). You, my readers, whomever you are, have been waiting for a new scraps for a while. Maybe patiently, maybe not, I don't know.


The thing is, I'm doing well, I'm busy, I'm happy, but my laptop is 'on the fritz'. For instance, scrolling is difficult, and it won't read my camera card- no new pictures available. These are random oldies but goodies...


The battery requires to be plugged in at all times. In any case, it is time to back it all up and put a new laptop on my wishlist (birthday maybe?). And  so you see why I am not writing new scraps.


I thought I'd let you know. Not  much news from this end either- no changes including my backpain (in spite of what I have to  assume is the docs' best efforts).


Also, it is near impossible sometimes to write a scraps that is not politically tinted, in these tumultuous times, and I was trying to keep all of that for some other place.


The weather here- always a great small talk topic- is roller-coastering from freeze to short-sleeves warmth yesterday, and I had really forgotten how nice it is to walk around barefoot and have the windows open...


Wishing you all well until my wish comes true (just the one material wish ;-)
