New I think of it as a "forced upgrade". :-)
The new generation of electronics is almost always substantially better than the last in every respect other than reliability.

Cheers,
Ben

That's a good one, Ben!

I think I'm just in a shitty mood in general today. Katie losing her computer kind of puts me in a bind I was desperately trying to escape. See, Katie said she would take over the Family Report so that I could separate it from my monthly letter....

Guess who is helping Katie with the Family Report now that she doesn't have a computer? And guess who I now have to send the information to to get them started on the report, because I can't e-mail it to Katie?

one guess.... two guesses... 3.... right! SIL!

Grrrrrr.

So much for escape.

New On my fridge is a Stine cartoon
It depicts a critter with head bent parallel-to-ground, on shoulder - stack of boxlike objects atop,

hand-penned down the margin:

So often
We fail to see
that the unrelenting,
sometimes even horrific,
pressures we live under
are actually pressures
that we created
by our own DESIRES
in the first
place.



bon DESIRES appetit :-)

New That applies in many ways to me, I agree
But I fail to see how it would apply to SIL, since I never had desires to have her opinions expressed at me in the first place. ;)

It's okay... I'm stressed, crabby, slightly depressed, and feeling overwhelmed, but I'm determined to do something about it all starting TODAY.
