Out of Commission

Won't be around for awhile. I downloaded a toolbar from Zynga on Facebook and it's totally trashed my computer. Things are corrupted all over the place and I'm going to have to go shopping for a new one.

I'm using DH's computer to type this but this thing is a real dinosaur and we never know if it's going to work or for how long.

I've lost a whole lot of stuff. I swore I was going to back up to a thumb drive - even have one sitting there in an unopened package - and I never did. So I've saved what I can. Lost all my favorites and email addresses. Guess I'll be starting from scratch so if no one misses me and doesn't write to me then  I'll have lost them. I do have my yahoo address that I use on here so I have the addresses that way but others who wrote to me on my personal account are out of luck.

  I didn't go to church and do that announcement cause on Saturday night I felt like I was going to throw up and I had nightmares all night so was exhausted by the morning. We did do sandwiches this morning with the 5 of us that I'd called and apparently the minister did ask for help for me.  I'm so glad today is over. We also had to go to a new lawyer this afternoon to update our Wills which is never fun, especially when I am so concerned about what will happen to Michael.

I'm so sorry about your computer! We went through that last summer. A computer geek friend from church was able to get most of our stuff off our old hard drive, but it's still a pain to go through. New wills - yes, we should update ours, too. We don't have the added concern about an adult dependent, though. I hope all goes well for you and you're back soon.

Oh no! What a pain! Hope you are back up and running soon!

Oh No what a pain. I had to get a new computer awhile back which has windows 7. I am still learning how to use things. Hope you are back soon

I feel your pain. I've had to reformat my hard drive twice in the last year. It's frustrating as it happens because you are trying to do different things to fix it and nothing seems to work. Then when you do get it fixed, you have to reload everything. Good luck. Email me if you need anything.

You know what, Shirley - you were absolutely right about turning down that public speaking. As someone who is a real introvert, I know we have to push ourselves lots of times to do things outside our comfort zone. But making announcements to the whole church is too much to ask. I hope you're stress level is much lower now.
