I feel like ozEkoala needs a fresh start! The truth is, because of the cognitive problems I have experienced (associated with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome - or more appropriately, Completely Foul Sickness and hereafter referred to as CFS), I find it very difficult to make changes to an already established webpage or site - so this is my next best option. Today I have said, "Enough!" After spending several days staring at ozEkoala's main page, fiddling with a few things here and there, and failing to make any real impact, I am starting something completely new. I have lots of ideas for the new site, but very little is achieved through the veil of brainfog... so don't hold your breath on this one either. I still intend taking ozEkoala's Adventures through to a satisfactory end, but just not today.. or tomorrow. There is a lot more to ozEkoala than you might realise. On my home computer, I have several fully functioning websites that no-one but my husband has seen. I had a funny realisation today. After looking through some of my accumulated files on the computer (that's what I am reduced to sometimes - browsing around my own computer to see what has appeared there during a particularly bad spell with CFS, when all I seem to do is surf the WWW and save interesting things to my hard drive, in the hope that one day I will be well enough to appreciate them, and more than that, use them creatively...<sigh>)... now back to my sentence... I had an imagination of making a webpage about something that had just happened. The day before I had imagined making a webpage 'wedding album'. I was married three and a half years ago, and still haven't put the photos together in any attractive way. It struck me that website designing has become a form of self-expression for me! Some people write poetry, some compose music and songs, some design houses... I design websites. There's more I could say on this, but my brain won't co-operate... yet. By the way, did you catch up with the news that ozEkoala is having a birthday soon? Born Ossiekoala, on April 22nd, 1999, ozEkoala experienced an image change and renaming on February 2nd, 2000. I hope you will drop in to the site and say Happy Birthday sometime this month, either via the guestbook, or an email. The site link is still the same, but if you've lost it, go here, and then make a bookmark. @(*O*)@ Hope to hear from you soon. I'm going now - I can feel a website coming on! a big koala hug, love from
