i've been fiddling again....have joined blogroll and weblogs....i'm not obsessed with number of hits...i have very modest expectations but i can see were the blogroll function can make linking easier.......still listening to dr klassisk....very relaxing and enjoyable..snow has subsided for the moment and hopefully most of what has been predicted will not come ...have not looked at an update forecast for a few hours and must do that....have too many things to do in the next few days and need to be aware of the possibility of interference from the weather......
