Yep, I got a laptop!   :-)

Okay, so yes, I did technically get it three weeks ago but life has been crazy!  Getting my posts up hasn’t been happening.  (warning: you are getting a few posts like this over the next few days.  :-) )

This photo was taken the next morning after I got it.  Listening to the birds, feeling the cool breeze on my face…Man it beats writing in the basement hands down!  Not to say I don’t appreciate the basement come mid afternoon when its in the high 90’s with high humity.  Oh, yeah, then I love the basement.  :-)

I thought to try hooking up one of our extra mouses except I had the wrong connection for them.  Blah, oh well.  But if you ignore that in the picture you can see what I’m doing now every morning I can!  I love it!  I use it everywhere!  take it everywhere we go.  I always did the same with paper(and I still bring a notebook along just in case) but the notebook wasn’t for working out editing problems.  It was for brainstorming.  Now I can edit/polish wherever!  Too awesome!  I should have gotten one of these ages ago.  Now to figure out how I can write while running–for  those moments when I figure things out, which I invarably always do about 3-4 miles into it wouldn’t you know.  :-)

I have this nifty little voice recorder, MP3 player, flash drive all in one (whoever invented those owns their very own place in my heart). I had the worst habit of getting ideas in the middle of walking the dog, so I got to where I’d grab that on my way out and when the ideas struck, I’d just tell it to the recorder. When I got home, I could replay and write without those ‘GRR! I totally forgot what I was thinking’ moments. I felt like an idiot walking the dog and talking to the recorder… but hey, I can swing being an idiot lol.

Hey Cole, congrats! Hubby bought me just the PC box-seems sharing in practice wasn’t near as nice as in theory. I’m still trying to put in Contacts, get my favorites and re-write my resume. Seems that was one of the more important work pieces I lost in the recent computer dying incident.
May we both enjoy our new “stations”

YAY! You got the new laptop. And look at that backyard. I’m so jealous. We haven’t had a chance to get ours in shape and it sat untended for over 18 months. It’s a mosquito haven!

Hey great idea Fallon! I’m seriously going to have start thinking about adding more to what I’m carrying so I can save these notes. :-)

LOL on the mosquitos, April! Our yard may be trimmed and such but the mospquitos still think its a grand place to stop by. :-) Especially come evenings. But a little bug spray usually is enough to make things enjoyable. :-)
