I Lost Everything in the Crash of '09

Well, not everything, but a lot. You see, I was hijacked. It was an ordinary Saturday. I'm working on a sudoku puzzle, The Tall Guy is playing on the computer. Suddenly he sits straight up, a look of horror on his face, and says, "um.....uh-oh." I knew immediately it was bad.

So a few weeks, a few hundred dollars and a lot of gray hair later, I am the proud owner (and sole user) of a brand new Acer Aspire One D150 mini-laptop. It's adorable and tiny, I recommend it. It comes with a 6-hour battery and the keyboard is managable most of the time. The mouse tracker pad thingy is awful, so I hook up my cordless mouse when I'm home. Wishlist to complete the package:

1. External DVD/CD drive
2. Cordless mini mouse
3. Docking station
4. Wireless router

Onward and upward.

This is just a hit and run today, summer is so busy. What's in season this week:
Squash
Tomatoes
Bell peppers
Cukes
Blueberries
Melons
Peaches
Plums
Early apples
Pears
Onions
Late hardy greens
Baby pumpkins
Herbs of all kinds imaginable

Hope your days are full and happy.
