May. 27th, 2010 11:22 amI have had an...interesting few days.
The set-up:
On Friday, I joined Weight Watchers, finally. I may post in more detail about the actual program later, but here the point is that I went in and signed up and got the materials so I could start going to meetings the next Monday.
Over the weekend I finally sat down to order to the new computer I wanted. My old laptop has been very faithful, but it's starting to glitch in that "my hard drive is dying" way, not to mention that I have to restart Firefox at least once a day to keep it from eating up all the RAM. And the backlight on the screen shorts out about three or four times a day. Little stuff like that.
To make the purchase, we had to transfer funds from the savings at my husband's credit union. Although the credit union did finally upgrade a few years ago from the Commodore 64 computer that used to run the system (that's 64K, by the way), apparently they haven't upgraded to having anyone on hand to make larger transfers on the weekends. So, we had to wait until Monday. No big deal, right?
Yeah, right.
( Monday, May 24, 2010-- :( = 3; \0/ = 0 )
( Tuesday, May 25, 2010-- :( = 1; \0/ = 1 )
( Wednesday, May 26, 2010-- :( = 0; \0/ = 3 )
It's now Thursday. All I've done so far today is forget Boo's lunch. Small potatoes. ;)
