“BACK IN THE SADDLE AGAIN”
This will be short to let everyone know the new computer is set up and hooked to the internet.
It will be awhile before I have everything set up. All the files from my old computer have been transferred to the new one. Now I have the job of sorting, deleting and placing things where I want them. But that will all happen in due time.
I am just thankful to have access once again to my internet email and my journal. Unfortunately, I didn’t write down addresses in my Favorites and thus don’t have access yet to those journals I regularly read. Hopefully as I sort through all the transferred files from the old computer I’ll find them.
Once I get used to it, I think I’ll like my new computer. The flat screen monitor is awesome. It gives so much more room on the desk.
Now I have a computer with monitor for sale. It has Windows 2000, Office 2000 and a bunch of other stuff I can describe to anyone who is interested.
That’s it for this time. Hopefully I’ll be able to keep this journal updated at more frequent and regular intervals, but that remains to be seen.
Hope you all had a great Thanksgiving season. Our Thanksgiving Day was very hectic and stressful and included a trip to the hospital emergency room. I’ll journal that experience a bit later.

SADLY NEGLECTED
It is sad how I have neglected so many things this past month. I have neglected communication with my friends by any form. I have neglected this blog spot Journal. I have neglected getting a hair cut, getting adequate rest and eating properly. Now it is beginning to catch up with me. I need a haircut in the worst way. I am exhausted emotionally and physically—all the time. And I am sadly out of condition and carrying too much weight. I keep thinking every day; every week will be better. But so far it isn’t.
And now we have entered the “Holiday Season”. This time of year is anything but relaxing. I’m probably weird, but Christmas isn’t my favorite holiday and winter definitely isn’t my favorite time of year. I don’t mind the cold as much as I mind the snow and ice. Some of my distaste is due to the safety factors of driving on snow and ice. But I do admit to the fact that a lot of my distaste for winter weather is that is interferes with, or at best, slows down, accomplishing plans. It is harder to go places and takes longer. Being able to go where one needs or wants to go is more “iffy” in winter. * Sigh * I don’t like it! People tell me how beautiful it is. I don’t see it unless I am inside looking out and not being forced to go out in the nasty weather.
Karon decided she has had enough of me complaining about how slow our computer is working, and other related complaints. So we bought another one. Supposedly they are transferring things from my old CPU to the new one. But I’m panicking that a lot of things will be lost. I don’t know how long I’ll be without my email and if I’ll ever even get my I. M. back. I’m updating this from work but don’t have my address book to send a notice that I have finally updated my Journal. I guess you’ll just have to stumble across it yourself.
Anyway, “HAPPY THANKSGIVING”! I hope to be back in business at home computer-wise soon.
