They're coming to take me away hee hee....
Just an update for those of you playing at home:
1. I am entering the 3rd night of having a crippled computer at home. I worked on it for more that 4 hours last night, being coached by my friend from Boston. No joy. I am beginning to contemplate more drastic measures. I think I am going through withdrawal symptoms.
2. When I did finally make it to bed last night, it was one of those times when my brain just would not slow down, so I was staring at the ceiling at 1:15. I decided to go out into the living room to watch the weather channel and bore myself to sleep. About the time I reached the foot of my bed, I stepped on my poor dog. It was dark but by the way she held her leg, stepped right on the middle of her right foreleg. I was sure I broke it. She is all right, but I was so upset, and startled that I wound up being up for another hour. My wife got to the point of irritation with me and told me “to stop feeling guilty, the dog is fine.” “ She is going to start faking injuries because you have paid so much attention to her,” she said.
3. We are doing work on a 200 year old church. We have scaffolding down one entire side of the church in order to rebuild the gutters that were torn off during an ice storm last year. I got a call this morning from the scaffolding contractor. One of their guys dropped a hand rail that punch a hole through a stain glass window that is basically priceless.
Just another day in paradise….

Oh no, how terrible about the stained glass.
Glad your doggy is OK... animals always seem to be underfoot at some point in time (we have a cat who thinks she is a rug).
Shame about your computer. Hope you get it sorted soon, PC withdraws are no fun at all.
Have a great day.
