Well, it's been almost a week since my last update....
Unfortunately Mortimer, my beloved computer has fallen ill with a nasty virus and it will cost more to fix him than replace him. So, in 3-5 days my new computer will arrive, and Morty will get a short but sweet service and burial....in lieu of flowers, please send cash to help defray the cost of replacing him....
In the mean time, I am on my old lap top with a whopping 32 RAM. For fun, I also set up our old Packard Bell computer, which has 23 RAM. Actually, I think the hard drive runs on a hampster in a wheel....it was fun, though, reading through old documents, looking at old paint pictures Betsy did as a 9 year old....and listening to all the soundwaves I had for my chats in Mom's Online and Parent Soup. Wee-one wants it set up in her room so she can play Mavis Beacon's Typing for Kids. Betsy learned on that program and types 95 wpm.
Okay, I'm going to go and try to save this. Here's hoping! I am keeping up with reading my alerts, and commenting when my computer lets me....

It saved, HOORAY for Sherry's old dinosaur computer! My old computer crashed and died about 2 years ago and I gave it to one of Bethany's friends Dad's to fix. Well, about 6 months ago I get a call from him telling me that it is "fried" but he was able to make a c.d. of all the pics I had on there. I was so happy when I looked at the c.d. because I had forgotten all the memories I had on that old computer! Thank God he was able to at least save those!! Soon you will be up and running full speed ahead!!
Hugs and love, Lisa

Sympathy on the demise of Mortimer :o(
Isn't it amazing how fast technology has moved on. I remember my maths teacher having one of the first calculators. It was huge & needed a reel of paper to print the sums on. How I laughed at the idea that one day we would have phones that didn't need to be plugged in!
welcome back Sherry :)
sorry to hear about Morty. What are you going to call the new computer?
Take care, ..........Jules xxx
