Interesting Month

It sure has been an interesting month around here, regarding cardstock and computers. The profile I made for my sister was a huge hit. Now their social worker wants me to make another one......ack. She called my sister and asked her "what it would take for me to make another one". Since I'm such a nice sister, I have agreed to do another one. Hmmmm.....let's see, what do I want.....hehehehe.

I was typing away the other day on my computer and it went totally dead!! I waited a few weeks to contact the service department, as I knew I would be on the phone forever. Sure enough, 2.5 hours later, I was informed that my "motherboard and power supply to the motherboard" was broke and I needed to have them replaced. Of course, the warranty went out about 8 months ago. Wouldn't mind it too much, but I have some info. on that computer I need. Hopefully my BIL can retrieve it for me. But I might try to remove the memory chips (again for the upteenth time) and put it in another tower and see if I can get it to work....... I think it might be easier and cheaper just to find a deal on another tower.

Sorry about the computer. Luckily my dh is computer savvy. He's replaced our power supply a couple times over the years. Hopefully yours can be fixed.

ACK! Sorry about your computer, that's terrible! I hope you can save the chips or whatever it is you need to get your info off the hard drive! (I don't know anything except how to use them, lol)
