Obviously some of the sites are on paid hosting and you’re right, it’s not perfect. 000webhost aren’t bad really and do respond quite quickly when I submit a ticket. It’s just that Pietro’s problem happens to me too. Perhaps it’s just Italy. Who knows?

I’ve never felt comfortable sticking within the lines, and life gets a lot more interesting (and a LOT less safe) outside the lines.

Oh, and take it from experience, paid hosting is not always the joy they paint it to be. Had to rant to the company which hosts mine the other day. Needless to say it was fixed soon after!

But, I guess, that may be true for me too as far as other people are concerned – although there are clues, if you look hard enough.

Sorry about you losing the comment. It’s the problem with having to host my blog on one of the free hosting sites – although this is a lot better than most. Maybe one day I shall pay for it and then it will be better……

I wrote a comment but there was a problem in “establishing database connection” and it went lost! Anyway, I go outside the lines, doing something unexpected, in “my real life”, that is outside work! There, I should be inside, even if many times it is really hard…

“Being always “within the lines” allows you to go out when you want, because no one thinks that you would do!”
But when do you go outside the lines??????? :-)

Sometimes I really like to do something that is completely unexpected, just for the pleasure I get observing what happens around me…

I have very big spaces of odd colors with blurred lines. My husband has very few lines, mostly spaces with many colors. The lines I/we do try to maintain are those that maintain us – like our home and car, and FREEDOM!!………I could go on and on, I wont though. Let it suffice to say that I will explore this metaphor in great detail. Thanks Andy.

Love Gail
peace…..
