Let’s count the days, shall we? The days left until AOL leaves us twisting in the wind?
What an apt Halloween prank their pulling the plug on us will be…
Oh, I have another non-aol blog. The one I started back in…what was it, 2005? When AOL sprang the ads on us, and all hell broke loose?
Anyway, poor little old "Better Terms" hasn’t had much of a workout since we bought the café. I decided "Coming to Terms…" was just easier.
And I compose most of my worthwhile entries in "Word," and then save them to my hard drive. So it’s not like I’ll be desperately scraping to retrieve my great essays…
But I will mourn the community. The community of which I have never been more than a reluctant, shadow-dwelling part. It is quite a shock when someone hangs the "going out of business" sign on one of your favorite haunts.
At any rate….
For those of you who will want to follow me wherever I go (all three of you) I will be here:
Stop by, say hi, leave a comment…so I know you’re out there.
There are only 4 AOL blogs I keep up with. You are the only one I know has another place for me to keep up with though.
ReplyDeleteYou know I'll find you Lisa.

Thanks for the heads up. I didn't even know this was going on because I rarely go on to AOL anymore. I think AOL will eventually vanish completely. Once I clear out the remainder of my journal, I'm clearing out my emails too. Bueno-Bye!
ReplyDeleteI can't say I didn't see this coming....sad though. I remember when I first started blogging... I really NEEDED some friends then and of course all the support I received through the Hurricane Katrina -vs- my daughter period. I would have been lost without the aol bloggers. Its sad to see it actually happen though.
ReplyDeleteSigh....
I actually stopped by to invite you to look at the photos from my sister's native american wedding ceremony that I posted on my blog (reopened) late last night. http://stormswhisper.blogspot.com/ Stop by if you want.
Take care. I'm glad you still have Better Terms, though I will miss the more personal blogging here.
You were one of my first friends on the aol version....Thanks for helping me get started.
