RSS feeds and Bloglines

I have had set up a blogline account and added some RSS feeds. To organize these I created 4 different folders.
The main problem I had was when I chose 6 hours for display, and thought I lost my feeds because only the 'news' feeds were displayed.
I realised then with the other RSS feeds and blogs nothing had been added during the last 6 hours, so I changed these other feeds to 24 hour display.

I was playing around with my photo and Flikr mashups, what an improvement!!
I did try some of the other effects but they always cut my head off.

Hello my dear dear friends
As I am typing this I feel myself morphing into a cross between Mrs Doubtfire and Dame Edna Everage, oh well it could be worse, think Bronwyn Bishop/Helen Clark!!!!!!!!
I have just uploaded a recent photo of myself, hilighting those gorgeous legs. ( Sonia McMahon eat your heart out)
For my last birthday my very generous husband of many years, paid for me to have my veins done, and just look at the results!!!!

One of my first library experiences many years ago, included a blooper I will always remember.

I was teaching a group in a school library when two children arrived from another class asking for a Good News Bible.

Annoyed with the disruption to my well prepared lesson, I went to the beginning of the reference collection and scanned quickly for the title. Not finding anything with "Good News " my eyes fell on the spine of a big fat book which read Macintosh Bible. Relieved I had found something similar, I grabbed the book thrust it into the little hands of one of the children, and returned to my class.

Five minutes later, the two children returned with the book and a note from their teacher which read "I can use this book for my IT class next week, but it isn't much use for my RE lesson today" I then looked closely at the title - Macintosh Bible for Mac Users !!!!!!!!!
