Well…
So. the computer. It’s still not completely fixed, though it has been rebuilt completely from the floor up. Because, you know, it was tore up from the floor up. Haha. Ended up having to get a new hard drive, because the ordered motherboard didn’t support my drives. Good news is, said drives then could be set up in an external drive case, and I was able to recover EVERYTHING. This makes me giddy. There may have been happy squeals of a girlish nature, even.
Unfortunately, said motherboard also doesn’t recognize the internet. So we got an ethernet card – which apparently isn’t Vista compatible.
…so it works – deliciously fast even. But can’t get online. And as 95% of what I do is online… yeah. So he’s still trying to find a card that works and we’ll go from there.
In other news – Guess who passed lvl 3 swimming lessons today? That’s right – the pup is on her way to lvl 4, where they concentrate on all of the individual strokes, and getting the timing down in preparation for the swim team. She’s unofficially on the team – as she can swim the length of the pool on her belly and back, and thats the minimum requirements. Coach wants her to pass lvl 4 too, though, to get that much more of a head start when the season starts in November. Very proud kiddo, she is! And very proud are we, too!
