We’re here, sort of…
If you’ve not guessed before, I am having a blog disaster at the moment.
My blog moved over to a new host, then there were a few problems and it had to be done all over again, and it took longer than we could ever have anticipated.
Today, Sunday afternoon, I finally have a place to blog.
It is a naked blog, but we are back.
So,
1. If you’ve been trying to email me I’m so sorry, I haven’t been able to get into my emails, and I still can’t.
2. And I’m so sorry to everyone who signed up so far, those posts have not yet updated with the new host, so I have no list of who has signed up. The only thing I could think of to do was to copy Robin’s list from last week, add the newbies I knew were joining in, and hope for the best. So if you’re not on the list, I am so so sorry, please leave a comment and I will add you as soon as I can. And if you are on the list but not playing this week, apologies, but hey, free linky love.
UPDATE: I have the list. The coveted, gorgeous, splendiferous, magical, wondrous, blumming great list.
(Anyone picking up on relief here?)
3. Sorry if you’re awaiting the challenge so you can write your post. It was up before, but I just managed to upload the post with it on again, so here it is…
I want to know about your first ‘celebrity’ crush. You know, the one you fancied from that band, or that film, or who read the news, or who won Gold at the Olympics.
Did you have their pictures on your wall or in your locker?
Did you dress like them, style or colour your hair like them, follow them, meet them, marry them? (It could happen.)
Photos of THEM would be good, photos of YOU at the time you liked them would be even better.
Also, if you have time, I’d like to know whether they had any influence over your life, the person you became, or if they were just an embarrassing blip you would kind of rather forget about.
Okay?

1. Swampwitch, Anecdotes, Antidotes & Anodes who was last week’s fabulous host.

Please leave me a comment below, and let me know if you’d like to join our merry band. You won’t regret it, and I’d love to add you to my list…In the meant time, Happy Fun Monday, and please forgive me. The update was really meant to be done by now, but it didn’t work out the way we hoped. I promise I would never have volunteered if I thought there was the slightest chance there’d be a problem.
If it makes you feel any better, right now I don’t know whether to laugh, cry or scream, and I have pulled out so much hair my head looks like somebody’s knee.
Right. Now I’m off to have a nervous breakdown.

Hooray, at least you are able to blog, even if it’s naked!! I hope you have shouted at whoever it is that is playing around with your lovely blog. I’ll be joining in tomorrow (I’m on your list, don’t panic!)
April 6th, 2008 at 11:45 am
Jo dahling? You make naked look good. Wait…umm…that came off more creepy than complimentary, didn’t it? Remember to breathe…and have that breakdown only if it makes you feel better, okay? ~Hugs~
April 6th, 2008 at 12:11 pm
It is so good to have you back, whether you are naked or not. Have missed you and I’m up for playing.
April 6th, 2008 at 12:45 pm
I’ve missed you! Glad you are back, I’ve enjoyed catching up.
April 6th, 2008 at 1:38 pm
Hooray – Jo is back. Knee-head is the look for this summer. You’re always just before the zeitgeist, aren’t you?!
Don’t get stuck in a snow drift, now…
Mya x
April 6th, 2008 at 2:30 pm
Poor bloggy! Glad you’re back regardless though!
April 6th, 2008 at 3:25 pm
Whew – I was just about to send out a search party!
April 6th, 2008 at 4:01 pm
Rosie, it is so good to be back. I am so relieved.
Kim, thanks my lovely. As soon as I was able to blog, most of the tension floated away. I just really didn’t want to let the Fun Monday folks down, and I have so much blog fodder piling up it’s going a bit off.
21st Century Mummy, awww thanks. And I can’t wait to read about your crush.
Mrs Weasley, I missed you too. I’m so relieved to be back.
Mya, it really is snowing. It’s so weird. Hope you’ve had wine with your digging. x
Maria, thanks gorgeous. And my blog is very happy to flash her bits in public.
David, thank you. I have weekend wanderings to catch up on now. I have sooooo missed my blog. ;D
April 6th, 2008 at 4:28 pm
Nice. I know everything about NKOB, because my daughter Karina use to be a big fan of them also. I don’t even think they’re that bad.
Jo I’m sory that you had problems with your blog and I’m glad you back. By the way I’m not on your list for the Fun Monday, if you could sign me up I would apreciate. Thank you.
April 6th, 2008 at 7:18 pm
Jo never mind about me being on the list, I foud myself. Thanks.
April 6th, 2008 at 8:04 pm
I’ve had a similar blogging break. I know the feeling how nice it is to be back to blogland. Count me in for this week’s assignment.

Hi Jo, I’m sorry I’m posting late. Had things away from home that had to be done.
This was a Fun Monday theme for me today. I wrote about how I met my best friend.
April 7th, 2008 at 4:29 pm
Whilst it is Tuesday here PLEASE count me in!
April 8th, 2008 at 9:07 am
Hi – glad you are back. I’d love to join in – just afraid of “committing” to things then letting the side down. Can you let me know what I have to do? And also if I do “let the side down” – feel free to let me know and take me off!
So good to see you back. Good luck with the new blog. (Don’t panic – you have not missed me – I am a very new newbie to your site! I think I just started visiting and then you disappeared and I said I would try again. I did. You’re here. )
