Posting here to apologize for being neglectful of my journal. I guess I’ve just not been motivated enough to really do a regular post, and for that I’m sorry. I guess by the time I get home, I just feel either too tired or too lazy to bother with a post other than just bits of random things I find interesting or amusing here and there. I think I have a little bit of ennui or something.
But not only have I been lax on posting, but also on reading everyone else’s posts as well. I guess that makes me a poor “friend” or something.
Plus, I’ve been on my laptop a lot and the client I use for it doesn’t have a spell check (which is a bit strange to me, but I digress), so I have to open Text Edit on order to write up anything and then copy and paste onto my client. And if there is something I need to use on a regular basis, it’s a spell check! So that is a bit of a hassle that I don’t feel like dealing with. I’m going to try and get better at both though, but I know I’ve said that before…
Work is pretty much status quo. I’m a bit behind lately due to us having to go and change the prices to a bunch of different codes, which had a small window of time to get done in, so that took precedence over all the rest of my stuff. So basically I’ve been trying to play catch-up with everything. I have a nice mountain going.
Speaking of mountains, mom and I are making significant headway into our visit to Tennessee over the fall. We found a nice (and inexpensive) place to stay while there. It’s located in Pigeon Forge, which is central to everywhere we wanna go, so that’s a big plus. Also, the rooms have a fridge and microwave, so that will cut down on eating out. MAJOR plus right there.
My former co-worker and her daughter are there at the moment staking out houses for THEIR move in another few weeks or so. My feelings about this are mixed. While I’m happy that they’re doing something they’ve wanted to do for awhile now, I’m sad that they won’t be around anymore and that they’re moving to a place where I want to go also… but before me. So, I’m trying not to be depressed and jealous at the same time. I know I’ve gone on about this before, so sorry if I’m boring the few of you who still read my journal…
In other news, my iPod stopped working and when I tried to reset it, it said there was a hardware issue that was preventing my songs to be uploaded from iTunes. So now, since I had to reset it, I have no songs on it AT ALL!! I can’t even get it to where I can use my apps. So the plan is to take it to the Apple store in my area and see what they have to say. If it costs as much to fix as to buy a new one, I might have to go ahead and do that. So while I’ve been making do by listening to the radio on my phone (yes, it has FM radio), it’s not the same as having MY music. Plus, there are no commercials on my iPod.
I’m also going to bring in my MacBook because the battery case on the bottom is warped and I want to know what’s causing it and to see if there is anything I can do about THAT!! I’d like to get a new laptop, but I have a feeling that is not going to be happening anytime soon… :-[
Well, that’s all for now. I’ll try to get back to reading my FL again soon. I just get distracted easily is all. LOL.
