Back Online!
I'm finally back online, after one long week. It definitely pays to have AppleCare, even if you think $99 is too much to pay for 3 years. In the long run it's cheaper to just scrape up the dough within one year of buying your new Macintosh. As expected, the hard drive expired (and it definitely pays to have a BIL in the family who knows his way around computer and has a PowerBook to hook up to my PB and extract the data [yeah, I had it backed up, but that was 3 or 4 months ago and I use this PB allllll the time]).
They installed 10.3.4 (which is the base system install for this model) so I just went ahead and erased the drive and installed Tiger and now I'm adding back in applications and files from the backup drive. Pretty soon i'll be back to normal.
In the meantime, I've been working hard on the Nordie pullover, and am now into the complicated patterning section. Since the body is getting rather bulky for carrying around, I've cast on for the sleeve. So, I should have some good pictures to show y'all. And I've been spending time with my nephew Kai. He's getting more and more cute everyday, and he is perfecting his smile. I'll be going over later today to play with him.
Oh, and hi, Mother! Mother got a Mini Mac for Xmas and also is getting online . . . BIL is going to be setting it up later today. Anyone know of good quilting blogs for her to look at? I already know of two from the blogroll to the left - Curly Purl and Mutual Reclusive.







Welcome back and enjoy your new toy (and hi Lola's mom!)
