Ok my 6 month old laptop is in the shop again aaargggggggggggggggg. It is soooo making me crazy, I had it in 3 weeks ago and all seemed well for about 2 days and now I have a $1,300 doorstop till they figure out what the problemo is.
Meanwhile until it gets fixed I am going to be using the library computer. It is great that this service is available. I live about 30 miles from the library so I will only be able to come here every other day or so because gas cost just way to much. Meanwhile I am going through computer withdrawal.
Sales are picking up nicely in my shop and I hate to make people wait a day or so before I mail out their orders but for now it can't be helped. I have a good friend that is checking my shop throughout the day and she will let me know if someone purchases something so I can come here to the library and finish processing the order.
I always like to find the silver lining in every cloud and I guess the upside to this problem is that I won't be spending so much time on the computer so I will get more things made for the craft show I have coming up in 2 weeks and I might actually get some housework done[yikes].
Oh well .........

Thank you AOL for crashing my laptop!
I have been having problems with AOL since I got my laptop in July. It was really buggy and slow very frustrating. I blamed it on dial up and Vista.
So my computer crashed and I had to take it to Circuit City and let the Firedog guys look at it. I thought my laptop was a goner and I was bummed . I thought they were going to have to send it in for parts to be replaced. So after being in the shop for a week they went through everything and it was AOL that was causing the problems. So we wiped it off my computer and it runs great now.
I am thankful in a way that it happened because I had to switch ISP . With the new ISP I will be able to get off dial-up and go back to high speed because this company is building a tower less then a mile from my house. I hated giving up my DSL when we bought this house in the country. I started using Mozilla/ Firefox as my browser,OMG it is so much better then any browser I have used before; so Thank you AOL.
