I'm Getting a Dell!

I feel like the person in those older Dell commercials!

I've been so frustrated because I can't read, or blog, or surf, or do anything online. I got a phone call from a friend and she said, "You're getting a Dell!"

I about fell over! I have the absolutely coolest friends in the world! Here I was, trying to figure out how to come up with the cash for a new computer, or even a used one from the school district (which they should really give away, as they got them all free from Dell), when I get a call that my friends have taken up a collection to get me a Brand New Dell! It should be here in a few days, and then I'll be blogging from home again, and not having to impose on my daughter for computer time.

I am astounded at the generosity of people I have met in person only briefly, and in some cases, not at all. I'll surely have a thing or two to say to anyone who discounts online friendships to me!

That's the nicest thing anyone's ever done for me!

Thank you, one and all! Those two trite little words can never express my heartfelt gratitude.

Dude! I'm gettin' a Dell!

  1. Ronni, when word got out that you were computerless, I had withdrawal pangs for you and a sudden panic set in. And, I don't even blog!

    "Oh no! Whatever in the world is she going to do?" I said to my self.

    As someone who has been in your situation, I'm so glad we could help.

    Your friend, always! ~MCK~

    Happy blogging.

  3. "Dude, you're getting a Dell!" I said the same thing, LOL!

    We couldn't be without our daily Ronni rant, now could we?

    We missed you!

    P.S. I commented on Vanessa's blog. I said "Hi!"

    I'm so original!

  5. You certainly have a few "keepers" for friends, Ronni!

    Wow! That is one fine gesture, from a fine group of people.

    Looking forward to your debut entry on your new Dell!

    I miss you, too!
