I've occasionally had trouble sending back files that others have sent me. Sometimes compressing it with a ZIP program helps, sometimes it doesn't. I don't know if this will work with music files, but sometimes the only thing I've been able to do is manually break the file into several peices. W.

Get a message that the file size has exceeded the limit of 25 mg. Now, how is that? And what can I do about it?Catreonahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15959115298646880631noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15940389.post-16088252607419100942012-12-24T16:39:23.534-05:002012-12-24T16:39:23.534-05:00Confused.

Spent much of yesterday thinking it was Christmas Eve.<br /><br />When I got up today, Mum greeted me by asking whether I knew what the Higgs Boson was. Apparently she'd seen a program about it - on the National Geographic Channel she thought - and figured she'd cheer me up by asking me about it. Did the trick. Gave me a big smile. Sometimes people are very nice.Catreonahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15959115298646880631noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15940389.post-8822211994134241382012-12-24T16:34:14.728-05:002012-12-24T16:34:14.728-05:00*hug* Renee*hug* ReneeCatreonahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15959115298646880631noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15940389.post-84806456181774083952012-12-24T16:33:08.907-05:002012-12-24T16:33:08.907-05:00I love YouTube.

Needles to say, it was vastly superior before Google took it over, but no use crying over spilled milk.

Absolutely *adore* that woman's voice! <br /><br />Got a little weather event going on here, involving sleet, snow, ice pellets. Dusting of what looks like extra sparkly snow.
