Ahhh, a new computer!
Everyone should be required to keep their computer for at least five years like we did. Then when you finally do upgrade, it so sooo much nicer. This LCD screen is so big I feel like I'm at the drive in-movie. If I got a wireless key board and mouse I think I could run it from my bed 20 feet away.
And it also helps not to have some stupid bug lurking deep within the bowels of the machine making it crazy. Hopefully, one of my technically gifted nephews will be able to bring it back from the brink of insanity intact. But speaking of that, I copied all my email addresses onto a disc and promptly misplaced it, so all of you who have my new email, please send me a message so I can get your email addresses set up in here. I think the disc is with the sick machine, but I don't know for sure when I'm going to get that back, so ya'll send me a message. Moe, send your new in-laws my new valor email address please.
Ok, enough personal messages in here. At least I might find out who's reading, huh...or not.
Just one small bug in this new set up so far...can't install my printer. Plug 'n play never heard of it, not in the drivers, I have the installation discs...they are for Windows 3.1 or 95. It's how old? Ok, I got my money's worth anyway, didn't I. Guess we will have to upgrade that too.
Anyway, on to building things. It is still going well other than the regular misunderstanding what I meant when I told them how I wanted the wall, showed them actualy photos, and drew pictures and told them again the day they started....don't want small stones, want big ones...but I think they get it now. Anyway, I will have a completely rocked house by weekend after next, so they say. I think they are right cause those guys work their butts off and start before daylight...maybe that's where the small stones snuck in there. We are liking it tho.
I went on a buying excursion today - got this snazzy (is that how you spell that word?)new computer and Great LCD monitor - Thanks Brother Bob!! Also got some stuff for the house, vanity and sinks and stuff...and the other good news for the day, Lar found the long lost cordless drill in some strange box and his back is just about well, Thank God! He had so much moved around in the barn/shop tonight when I got back I almost didn't recognize the place. It is all turning out very comfortable for us. He has the office set up outside the apartment (less this computer - not letting the cats or spiders near it, thank you). We have everything we need...got a new fridge and little toaster oven. We are set. Just have a few more details to finish in here and we're done. Hmmm, seems like I keep saying that, but we do whittle down on them a little every day. Those long trips to the big city set me back a bit, but I have to go do that stuff too.
Andra and I also went babyroom shopping..or just window shopping really. We are trying to track down the stuff she wants to do the room in. It's going to be pretty cute, and very unusual. She can post pics when we get it done. Didn't actually find anything today, but got lots of ideas, so that's a start. Actually, I think she already has it pretty well settled in her head, just trying to locate the pieces.
Ok, I'm getting off now. Until we meet again.
