I truly thought that was a meaningful video for all women and some men would like it too. It just told what all happens in a group of women (like we are on F. R.,for instance)and the circle of friends we all have in our hometowns,etc. When they showed the picture of the gentleman, I thought it could have been her hubby who had passed on. I got a lot from it. I hate so bad that it took that long to download. I went through some of that when I was having so many computer problems and I don’t think I could wait like that either!!

I will be so happy when ‘one fine day you will get on here’ and tell us that AT&T has finally come through! We will have a party that day! And make a chocolate cake (like that one you showed yesterday.) What a cake. I wouldn’t make it because I can’t stand frosting that you have to beat that long. I have a candy recipe and I have to stand and stir for about 35 minutes while it cooks. It has to be just right after cooling and stirring to put out on wax paper with a teaspoon. I don’t like to fix it because I have had a couple of failures...but many successes. A might long post...sorry!

Pinging Kitty because she is in the same boat I'm in with regards to DSL and AT&T not available out in a less populated area (the boonies! LOL). Kitty, I've checked into satellite internet, and you have echoed the reasons I am not interested in getting it. At least, dialup is dependable, and I've learned to live with it. :)

Jaycee, I know exactly what you mean about beating frostings and candies so long. Not for me. I can do some desserts that are time-consuming, but watching and stirring candy to a certain temperature and then beating by hand for 30 minutes isn't one of them. :)
