Clean Bill Of Health
My computer is fine. You might recall that I had some problems with it in early December (exactly a month ago today!). The hard drive was making a knocking sound and I couldn't turn it off. Anyway, after getting in touch with my warranty providers in Canada, I arranged for a friend to pick up a replacement hard drive in Toronto and bring it down to me. However, when my "geek" friends here checked my hard drive, it seems fine. They defragged it and no bad sectors. No viruses either. So I'm good to go online and not quite so panicky ...
Personally, I'm feeling better too although I still have some residual cold symptoms. In particular, my left ear plugs up thoroughly whenever I blow my nose and takes hours to unplug. Other than that, I'm feeling fine, have all my old energy back and even made it to the gym twice last week. No New Year's resolutions for this Goddess. I start thinking about making changes in and around my birthday, not on a day that everyone else says I should.
Speaking of days when everyone acts like an idiot, I would like to start a movement to boycott Xmas. Don't buy me anything because I don't need anything and don't expect me to buy you something you don't need either. Instead, give the money to charity or better yet, give the gift of your time to charity. And why do we wait for one day out of the year to be generous? I don't need the media to tell me when I should spend the day with my family or friends. December 25th is crock! I'm so over it ... whatever it once meant has been lost. I'M NOT DOING IT ANY MORE.
