Yesterday at work I suddenly got tired. We have been busy trying to keep everything in balance, we need to do these systems and then those and then we can get at those other ones. The label printer quit the other day so yesterday we get the new part and tried it out. It worked. But then there was a need for some labels that we do not usually print an I could not get it to work right. Monday the team lead will not be there so I will be the one to keep things going. Unfortunatly when I get too tired I get grouchy. So yesterday the last few hours at work were not too good. People are still buying computers, companies that is we do not deel with retail sales, and computers are still getting upgraded at regular intervals. Quite a few companies that we deel with are migrating to the XP operating system – to late because the next one will be out soon; we actualy have systems in our warehouse that are already sold to a customer and will possibly sit there till september when a new service patch will come out for XP. Service pack is patches to “fix” known problems with the OS. Like driver being incompatable and loopholes in internet explorer. By the time the computers sit on the client desks in their offices those computers will be outdated, you will not be able to buy that model any more as well as the OS being old. When will these companies learn that Linux is cheaper AND better ? ? ?

I came home and had a nap and then had another and then decided that it was time to go to bed. Thanks Vicki for having supper ready when I came home ! I don’t think there would have been any cause I was to tired and grouchy to try making something myself.

Yes we do need a raingage. When we need it we need it. Lots of rain. The garden is growing! Lots of things, a bunch of which I can not name and a few vegetables. We got some natural ferlilizer put on the garden very early this spring and we are still working the weeds out. Need to get the roto going but it is too wet. Can’t cut grass for the same reason. It is good to see the rain. Thank you Lord ! Still picking strawberries, haven’t gone out seriously yet to get enough to do something with but they are good a few at a time too.

So Willena got on the bus last night – we hope – and now she will be at hummm Edson? Some of the clan want to go to the city today so it is about time to get them stiring so that we can get to the bus depot by 11:15.

Haven’t had much time to peruse (how to spell) the news, but then things don’t change much. It would be nice to be able to tell what really is going on in the world. What with reporters not being able to get to the right place at the right time and having their own bios and embelishing and the editors doing the same it is hard to really know what is up. Something happened we know but what and what IS the significance of it ? ? Well we DO know that our reason for being here is not affected by any of that. “Preach the word inseason even if it is out of season !”
