Good luck. I can't do it. I have an iced coffee in a red Solo cup at my desk as I type, and at home, there's usually a large Tervis tumbler of water to my left...

Welcome to VA, Al!

I, too, have two drinks at hand - tea and a breakfast smoothie.

How about a spill proof adult sippy cup?

I've spilled coffee on my keyboard so many times that I'm sure if it could speak it would demand its own cup.

You are just rattled because staycation is over!! It will be okay as soon as you get back into routine!

This is the first time in years I haven't been glued to the Tour. We went to Rotterdam to see the prologue the last time Lance raced, so sad he may have let us all down after all. Glad you are doing well,
Hugs,
Mere

Maybe you have your coffee in a sippy cup? Sorry about the spill. Hope the computer recovers. g

Jolt gum has caffeine. Last time I checked you could get it on thinkgeek.com

If a keyboard is like a cell phone, it will work again when it's dried out.

Do you have a laptop or a desktop? For a desktop, new keyboards are cheap and they plug right in and work with no fuss.

Hope you're back with pictures soon.

I keep drinks clear across the room from me and my computer for two reasons:

1. My darling feline Raina loves to pounch on me the minute I sit down anywhere (either to knit, get on computer etc.) and ANYTHING in her way is sent flying!!! We are working on being calm and controlled but she is still "a youngster".

2. I need the excersice - so getting up and getting a drink is a good thing!!! lol

I was really hoping someone had a suggestion for a coffee gum.

I'm supposed to use straw cups near the computer, but I usually just put my drink on the floor and hope I remember to be careful with my feet.

The nearly Thousandth post Contest

(just another baby legging in the image. Using my socks yarns a little differently) I think that blogger may not have correctly counted all the posts I've written. I've been posting since 2004 so I guess it is possible. I'm not going to go back and count them all. It says this is post 987. So we'll go with it. Im having a little contest for the milestone, but I have had writer's block since I decided on the 1000th post contest. So to take the pressure off, we are just going to do this now. :) I get crazy with pressure around events of all kinds. I just do. To enter: Please please please only leave a comment about this post on this post. Im much too flakey to search around differnt posts, afterall there are nearly a thousand (did I mention that number already? sorry....) Leave a comment telling me anything about Lace. If you dn't know anything about Lace, ask someone and share their knowledge. Do tell us who gave you this lace advice, to make it f...

Every Once in a While I Might Post

 Is that vague enough for you?  It has been a too busy complicated Spring.  I had no energy to blog.  All is well now, so I can share some things with you:   1. When I shoot photos of the moon I think of Dear Teresa.  Gone too soon. She took fabulous moon pictures.  2. I did not see one shooting star last night.  I only got up for a few moments around 3 a.m.  The local weather guy said he saw a few quick faint ones.   3. How can I can have one grown child in Oklahoma under flood watch, and One Child in Mexico under hurricane watch?  On the same day.  Tis true.  4. What have I knitted lately?  I am pretty sure I've ripped more than I've knit.  I ripped out a shawl that I was making up.  It was cotton and pretty.  I need to follow a pattern.  5. I was trying to make socks and decided to make mittens instead.  I haven't worked a thumb in a long time.  I may have to frog it too.  So I ha...

Dear buddy nurse and spay neuter pal Linda, came to visit yesterday.  We knitted. We laughed.  We shared books we are reading. She Showed me her scarf.  It looks like a shawl but it is a scarf. Here is her yarn choice. And the( OUCH) price.   It makes her happy to knit.  If Linda's happy I'm happy.  I dont' know the pattern and neither does she.  Her dog literally shredded her pattern.  She was at a point where she had memorized the easy part and she's nearly finished.  So there you go, anyone know the pattern? You are all so sweet about the move and the house. This morning I got my cuppa joe and headed to the porch to write you.  In the distance, my nearest neighbor, whom I can see through some trees.... well one of their teens came out, stretched, peed on their lawn casually, and then laid in his hammock for 5 minutes.  I'm sure he's not the first boy to do this.  I'm not even sure he's the...
