Huge "Getting Caught Up Post"

WOW...what a few days I have had, the last 2 days have felt like weeks!!

The first thing I should say is that I now understand the frustration of computer/internet issues as I have had enough lately to do me for years!! I have compassion i never had before for those of you who deal with this on a regular basis!!  The worst part was it was right in the middle of the Claudia and Co. June Release, a commitment to a friend (Betty) to be in her blog hop and a challenege at A Crafty Little Place...among other business that I need a computer with internet service for!!

I tell ya, if this continues much longer...I will need a psychiatrist or a padded cell!! LOL!!

So for now I have service and I have been a frazzled mess trying to get 

emails written, photos uploaded and delayed posts written!!

So hear goes...

On Monday night, when the Claudia and Company Release Hop started I was preoccupied with making sure I had internet and that my post actually posted, that I never noticed my card using the new Princess Set from Claudia and Co. didn't post!! Ugh!!
