Wow…it’s been 400 years since I posted on the blog...or at least that’s what it feels like.   My old computer finally bit the bullet last weekend after being extremely sluggish for well over a year.  It would take FOREVER for the internet to run or for applications and docs to open up, etc.        I can’t believe how long I’ve put up with that…  My old pc was purchased in April of 2003, so I’ve definitely got my money’s worth out of it.   I decided to stay with the same brand, Dell, and got a Inspiron 17R, so I’m very excited to get it this week, although I know absolutely nothing about laptops.       EEEK!!!       I’ll have to post a picture of the new computer to the blog when I get it.         : )
