Finally Snowing
This afternoon we went out to Best Buy to run an errand and I was noticing how green all the grass still was in the yards. When we came out of Best Buy, a few flakes were falling. Eight hours later and it's looking a lot like winter. It's very silent out there -- no cars on the street, hardly even any tire tracks in the snow. It's bright, too, like it tends to be in the snow. We have probably four inches in the front yard, judging by the trunk of the dogwood. Maybe tomorrow Marty will get to use his Christmas present -- a snow blower.
The "errand" we were running at Best Buy was picking up a new computer. We are badly in need of more storage space and memory, and to be honest we just need a second machine, period. It's tough to have to share, especially when you're sharing with someone who's on it as much as I am. Poor Marty. So I now have a hard drive of 80 gigabytes (this is up from the what, ten on the old machine?). Along with a bunch of other goodies.
It's hard for me to believe that a hard drive can actually be that big.
Anyway we have the computers networked and I'm in the process of transferring files over and installing my software on the new one. I expect this is all going to take a few days, but once I get it all done, it's going to be so great!
Tonight I cooked Katynka's pot roast and we watched Rob Roy. Uh, Liam? The kilt can stay.
