Ok, I, like many of you have a Facebook....why, I don't know, but I have one. This little "tag you're it"....tell us 25 things about yourself....has been going around. I have avoided it like the plague, but after about 50 people "tagged" me, I thought, why not? I finally figured out WHERE on my Facebook to do it....that would be under NOTES, for those un-knowing, like myself. So, last night I started the little 25 things about me list. I FINALLY get through and start "tagging" other "friends" and all of a sudden....POOF.....my screen is blank....WHAT????? I worked so hard on this list. I was furious, so, I calmly shut my computer down....and since it was close to midnight, I went to bed. :) Then, today after about 3 additional "tags", I said ok, I'll try it again. Trying to remember the 25 things I had already typed the night before, I began AGAIN. I get to #19, I believe it was, and right in the middle of a sentence.....POOF.....again it is ALL gone! This is beginning to be a challenge, and one that I AM up to....but forget Facebook....I'm going to my blog....where, I think it's safe. We'll see....
