New Tiny Laptop

9:41 am - My laptop definitely went south last night. I've had it for seven years. So I guess I'm going to bite the bullet and buy a new one today. I'm off to Staples to see what I can find.

4:39 pm - So I bought this tiny computer, that weighs in at less than a pound and a half. I knew I wanted something small for traveling in the airport and this is it. Little just let me know that I've got to go to Bellows Falls to pick up his friend Em, so I've got to get some home paper work done tonight.

10:32 pm - I'm still trying to figure everything out on this new computer. Is a little tight and I keep hitting the wrong keys, but I think that will get better. It's going to be a full day tomorrow, so I think I'll call it a night.

Like the Day After Christmas

7:00 am - We have a new president. I have been predicting a win for Obama since May, back when he was still fighting with Clinton. I believe this will be an important change for our country. Also of great importance to me our Gov Jim Douglas won a decisive victory. Now we all get back to work.

10:14 am - I'm starting to work toward being sick of my DH. He is going away tomorrow on a hunting trip, that's been planned for months and he hasn't gotten one thing ready yet. I know that he will make tonight and tomorrow morning a nightmare for me. On the plus side Little E took a trash bag to his room, so maybe some cleaning up there will happen.


11:05 am - well change of plans...I don't have to meet the realtor in Manchester now [I hope that's not a bad sign]. I do have to go to Staples for paper for the office, so I guess I'll go to Bennington.

12:41 pm - I had lunch at Friendly's in Bennington, and was planning to have one of their Spooky Sundae, but they were sold out, so much for my treat. Than after leaving the bank I forgot that I had wanted to go to Goodwill. Oh well, just keep moving. Buy the office supplies and than I'm going home, to hope for a short amount of peace.


3:05 pm - I got home to a blocked driveway. CVPS sent some tree guys up in Mom's yard to trim up the Squirrel Tree. That's what my Dad called it. Its just a hollow hickory tree that the squirrels live in. Mom is pissy that they only trimmed the tree up and didn't cut it down.
