Huh? A week? Dear Lord!

Soooo where has the time gone? A week ago I was having a mixed day, getting speeding tickets, stressed out of my mind, and here we are a week later, and where am I? A little older, a little wiser, and a little less stress!

This week I have gotten a lot accomplished, ordered the Laptop plan for the boss man, got GoToMyPc installed on his Home rig, I can get on and work on it from here! Whoohoo! I’ve setup a laptop, I’ve apparently gone the speed limit as I have no more tickets this week ;) and I just bought a $1,800 server that will give us 1.5TB of backup storage, in Raid5 setup, all SATAII with 16MB cache on the drives, a nice dual core with 4GB of ram, it looks lovely, plus I’ll have a SSH machine now at work! Woohoo!

So a lot has gone down, went and sung at the Church Choir practice for easter @ UB, twas fun, also had a birthday party at the lake, low turn-out, but good friends and family were there, so even with small numbers, it was fun (Long Live Pine!) - Sleeping a lot more lately, I think the ol body is starting to get the hang of things, and tonight I get to finally meet Mr. Solomon Poon! Da Baby! So I am pretty jazzed.

So another week down, and I need to start on my taxes this weekend, as it’s a few weeks earlier than normal, BUT since I don’t have the luxury of sitting up all night as usual, I need to get started on em now to get a good head start and have the ready to go.

Anywhoo - that’s about it, busy busy busy, fun, busy busy busy, fun, sleep, busy busy - my average day ;) but it’s all good, keep me in your prayers, lots more stress on the way I am sure with this backup server, you spend nearly 2k on hardware it will need to work :) So that’s my plan, make it work, for now though, only 30m or so before Niki calls me to do the Cougar backup, so I am going to work some more on this excel export VisualFox Pro script and see if I can’t make it sing. More later (hopefully)!
