New computer

Daddy's business computer is still not working. Right now it is in the "shop" to be dissected and hopefully fixed. We aren't even sure we can get everything off of it--the biggest thing is his iTunes library. Through all of this we decided that his computer will no longer be used for the Internet and he wanted to get his music off of it too. It will go back to being just a business computer (www.pictureperfectvideo.net)

So he had mentioned buying an external hard-drive for our pictures and his music. We would hook it up to our old laptop. We had talked about next tax return season buying a new laptop anyway--so we went ahead and bought a new one now. Since we got 6 months same as cash-it's like waiting til tax time, right?!?! :)

It is so nice though. It has everything on it: web cam, built in wireless modem, DVD player/burner, bigger and brighter screen, much more memory, much faster, etc. It's so pretty. I've been playing around with, trying to get used to what it has to offer. So far I really like it. The only negative is that it has Microsoft Works--I'm hoping all my documents on my old laptop will transfer to this one without turning into mumbo-jumbo.

By the way for those of you who are wondering, it is a Dell Inspiron 1525. You can check out Dell's website for its details.

On a totally side note, we went to a birthday party last week. It was Daddy's partner's littlest-she turned one. Since they go to a different church, it was nice to see everyone there that we don't see that often. All of their kids are getting big and there are some cute new ones too. And we got to see the new dog which was not so cute. Poor Bruser.
