Is it really April 6th today? I got up and looked out the window to see two inches of snow on my car and still falling. Of course, my snow tires are packed away so the ride down my hill should be more than interesting this morning.
I'm not sure where I got that bunny from. I must have snagged it quite a while ago. I found it hidden away in my external drive while searching through folders and files.
My computer is still horrendous but I've decided that in the scheme of things to worry about, this is low on the list. I've been reading and trying to catch up with journals again. Trying to put tags together is just too frustrating when I can't quickly scan my folders and files. Anyway, a computer can be fixed. I'm a packrat with my pc and live in fear of not having the things I need when I restore or have this thing restored. But, it's only files and "things." I've put it in the proper perspective after reading so many entries of people in JLand who are battling cancer, have relatives battling cancer, have chronic pain and illnesses...etc. All my woes right now are replaceable. My pictures are intact in my external back up drive. So are the programs I use. Funny thing that I do. I never empty the memory card on my camera. I just remove and buy a new one. I'm also considering backing my external drive up on discs. Becky tells me this will take days, and I best get a cabinet or storage unit because I will need hundreds of cd's. LOL...I was in my back up drive removing things I'll never use that I didn't remember I even had.
I suspect a virus although I've run several different scans, including my McAfee which is totally up to date, and nothing comes up. I'm finding even in the past year, customer service stinks all around. Even an extended warranty doesn't seem to make a difference. This squeaky wheel will get some oil. I just haven't had the energy to argue with the reps at E-Machines again. LOL...I'm sounding like my mother these days. She would argue and insist that companies back their products; still does.
Work was totally off the wall on Wednesday. I was drained when I got home. That was the first day in my new division that was like that. I was jinxed when the first counselor came and asked me if I ever had a day that started out crazy right off the bat. Of course, my day was smooth at that point in time. I said "not really." I should have kept my mouth shut because it turned into a "full moon" type of day.
So, I'm off to get ready to dig my car out. Is it really Easter this weekend? It was 60 degrees here on Christmas. Odd, to say the least.
Hugs and Blessings, Chris

I can toldereate cold in nov and dec and even jan. to start in jan is just rediculous
Oh Chris ,it is annoying when all this newfound tech ,that we have learned to take for granted blows up in our face ..but I love your attitude to it ,my PC went down last week and out of sheer frustration I washed all the floors ..ugh ,I hate to be out of touch with all my friends,I love your snowy Bunny ,poor thing it does look bemused ,Have Blessed Easter ...love Jan xx
adorable bunny and adorable easter tag. I need to back up my tags and graphics again...i have a few CD's with thousands of them on there but its been a good 6 months and probably have thousands more. I am so sorry your PC is not working correctly but glad you can get on AOL! I think Dell and Emachines and Compaq think we can just go buy a new PC if the current one dies. They dont care. WM sells basic PC's for $398. But they do not have enough memory. It is snowing here but it does not stick. COLD...only 21 degrees right now. Thank you for being my friend. Your comments made me smile today and i am not in a smiley mood. YOU ARE THE BEST.
LOVE, lj
Love your graphics, the bunny is so cute. I have been having trouble with low memory. Since I have deleted almost everything I am wondering about a virus also even though all the scans say no. I have 36 memory left until I went to cable and now I have 2 with less programs. Weird. Hope your snow melts soon. It is cold here also.

This weather is batty as all heck!! I'm so sick of snow it's not funny. It has become my new four letter word. Good luck with all the work you have ahead of you with your pc. Thinking about you, love ya! (Hugs) Indigo
It's all your fault!! You just had to have your snow tires removed!! LOL
Missie
Oh, man! Still having problems with the E Machine! I have been so lucky with mine.. never really given me any problems at all. It was my internet provider that was driving me crazy. All better now though.
You are right about the way things are, and looking at the scheme of things.. or the big picture. Sometimes the things we get so stressed about are minor compared to what others are going through. Leave to you, my friend, to see that! :)
I do hope you get your computer squared away though. That is so frustrating!!
Hugs and love, and more love!

Hi Chris, I'm trying to catch up on alerts, seems everybody's posting for Easter. I'm glad you've backed everything up on the computer, I hope you can get it fixed and running right again. Sorry your day at work was bad. I can't believe you're all still getting snow over there, it's been so warm here in the UK! Have a lovely Easter holiday.
