All Jumping Ship

Hi everyone,

I`m so happy that I`m not alone here in BlogWorld. It`s great that so many of you are either here already or on your way over. Better to leave JLand before it leaves us! I`m starting to get used to this format, I won`t say I like it yet but I am trying to. Of course there is no going back and if I want a journal I will have to stay so stay I will.

It`s been a real cold day today with a biting wind that has been bringing the leaves down from the trees. At work colleagues have been clearing the leaves but no sooner have they done it than another gust of wind brings even more of them down. It`s not as though they can be left until later either because the garden centre has to be kept clear for customers so it`s an ongoing task for the outside staff.

Jim bought Roman`s Christmas present today and we`ve hidden it away in the loft until a couple of weeks before. I know it`s early but we want to get presents out of the way so we don`t have to rush around at the last minute. It bizarre isn`t it, talking about Christmas on the first day of October...lol!

Yesterday we heard that our nephew Robert ( Jim`s youngest sister`s son)has asked his long time girlfriend Rachel to marry him and she accepted. They are such a lovely couple and so much in love and deserve all the happiness life has to offer. I am thrilled for them both.

Anyway my friends, I shall say goodnight and hope that you all have a lovely evening. Take care. :o)

Starting Anew

Hello everyone,

I`ll introduce myself. My name is Sandra and I`m soon to be a refugee from the AOL community of JLand. For reasons best known to them AOL have decided that it`s not in their best interest to have journals as part of the service. Many of my JLand friends are devasted and quite rightly so too. I just hope that other `refugees` will join me over here in this new Blog World. I hope that I like it hear and that maybe I`ll even have some readers in time, who knows, I`ll just have to see what happens.

For the time being I`ll say goodbye. :o)
