OK, this is sooooo cool! I have my very own, brand-new Mac computer - a MacBook! John brought it home for me tonight and gave it to me after dinner. It is white and wee and clean and I love it!
I so enjoyed blogging when I was on holidays, and I got used to pulling out my miniMac several times a day and writing...and I equated writing with my mini instead of my clunky old pc, so when it died (choked on a dvd I tried to play, possibly) I stopped writing. I really felt it, but I couldn't get interested in writing on the clunker, with its clunky keyboard. John very kindly took away the miniMac and tried to resurrect it, but nope - it's dead. So instead, he turned up tonight with this beautiful new miniMac.
Tomorrow I will start doing entries again, but tonight, I am just getting such a kick out of looking at this beautiful new machine, and trying to understand it - it has a camera, for pete's sake - that I can't really think straight!!
John, you do know how to surprise me! That's pretty neat, after 5 years....
About Me
- Bee
- I am of primarily Scottish origin, born and raised in B.C. I love my family intensely, and treasure time with them above all else. Family includes a partner, 2 sons, 2 daughters-in-law, 3 grandchildren, and 2 step-children, all of whom live reasonably close. I love riding my motorcycle, and consider sailing a spiritual practice. I am working on becoming strong and fit, the better to enjoy all of the above. Non-physical pursuits include reading (modern novels, Jane Austen, and sci-fi), watching movies, doing crossword puzzles, playing Scrabble, and baking. Cooking dinners, not so much. My personal philosophy is 'Do no harm' and I confine my road rage to inside my car; however, insects enter my house at their own risk, which is why I'll never qualify as a Buddhist as much as I believe in the basic tenets. Although I used to be 50/50 introvert/extrovert, I am finding more and more that I need time and space of my own to re-energize. I have a quirky sense of humour and am quick to understand - neither quality applying to electronic devices. Pretty traditional but love to embrace differences.
