So I Got The Boot Or Rather Lack Of A Boot

My f-ing computer friggin' up and quit on me Monday. I was in the middle of surfing the net like I usually do in the morning and BAM!! Nothing. After an hour on the phone with Dell Support, it was determined I needed a new hard drive which was installed yesterday. No computer for 3 days. I curse myself for being so dependent on this frickin' thing. After the last issue a month ago where I thought I needed to reformat the blasted thing, I had saved my favorites folder with all the knitting blogs and sites I read. Last week, I decided to delete that from my flash drive because "I didn't need it anymore". WRONG!!! I reconstructed my list for the most part and add things as I remember them. But what a pain in the ass. As soon as I hit the publish button, this new list gets saved. I'm not going through this bullshit again. Oh, and I also need to resolve a video driver issue that's been screwing up the works lately too. ARGH!!!


So I've worked on the Basic Chic Hoodie a little bit. I knit a Baby Surprise Jacket. And a Thorpe hat for Zach. Pictures soon. I also bought 5 skeins of Noro Silk Garden from WEBS last week. Marked down to $5.79 each. Almost half off. Couldn't resist.


Halloween tomorrow!

  2. My sentiments exactly! A little late for that now though.
