I mopped my floor today!
I don’t even want to discuss how long it had been. The only complaint I have about an open floor plan like mine is that you really can’t tackle cleaning one room at a time. Giving my floors a good thorough clean takes a solid hour. And I don’t seem to have a solid anything anymore.
I hope everyone had a great fourth of July. I was away at my inlaws and I have great pictures to share. Then we finally got a new computer to put old Sparky out of his misery. I can’t believe how much computer prices have gone down in the last five years. We recycled our monitor and all the accessories, so we just bought the tower alone and went for a model that didn’t have all the crazy bells and whistles. The salesguy was kind of relentless, but why do I need a computer with everything necessary to watch movies and TV right on it, when it sits four feet from our regular TV? Making the switch was a huge pain in the neck, and I can’t seem to find a way to save the games I’ve downloaded or Photoshop. The games are no big deal because they’re a huge time waste anyway, but Photoshop is kind of a necessity for me, and I no longer have the CD’s. Uh Oh. Now I’m sitting here contemplating what my options are, because I think $600 is a bit much for a program that is about 80% over my head.
I’ve been making stuff like crazy lately. I’m trying to dig out my studio and dig myself out from under my roughly 347 half-finished projects. Since this year kind of got away from me, I missed absolutely every birthday, so I’m trying to catch up a little. And I’ve had a few projects just burning holes in my brain. There has been more than one night when Bear walked in the door, I passed off the Rookie, and I locked myself in my studio with my podcasts, only stopping when Bear dragged me out to go to bed. I seem to be struggling to find a balance.
Get used to this, kid.
