Did I mention that I hate Window's Vista? It came with this laptop when I got it a couple of years ago. I had to run out to the computer store because my former laptop died suddenly and completely and I could not go 2 days without one. If I had a week to pick and choose, I would have had one custom built at the factory with anything but Window's Vista. It is constantly arguing with my computer and making it go 'crash-dump' on me. This is the reason that I will have to be brief. It did this very thing to me tonight with the dreaded blue screen and made me waste valuable time.
I know, I should just go out and get Windows 7, but I am in the middle of a mammoth project of clearing out, oh, say, two thirds of the contents of a house that is way too large for 2 people. Was that too many commas? It looked like it, but I'm not caring right now because I am a bit discouraged - just a bit. I was quite discouraged Friday evening as I finished up the "pantry project." I realized that just about every closet in my house will have to have a similar operation and the thought almost overwhelmed me. Today, I am less overwhelmed and closer to my usual optimistic self. There are 9 closets in my house and while none of them have the variety of clutter that this last project did, they will all have to be dealt with in time.
The good news is that I am way ahead of schedule for the goal I had set for this project, but I have not written any Christmas cards, made cookies and candy, or wrapped any gifts (although I have done my part to bolster the economy by buying some). I have found more dust in the last few weeks than I had ever hoped to encounter, but maybe we will be able to breathe easier now, until the next round.
