arghh

I mucked around and now I've lost all my links and comments. Oops! The life of a technotard.

Mind you, it might be blogger as well, as I keep "losing" my blog. Sometimes I can see it via the link and the rest of the time I'm getting an error message.

Back to old fashion technology - the sewing machine. I'm making a quilt as a wedding present for a friend.
