What’s Up?
The server got fixed . . . yay for blogging!
The olympics are over . . . yay for sleep!
Hubby and I cleaned out the office closet . . . yay for a cleaned out closet!
We filled the entire back of our Jeep Grand Cherokee with stuff for Goodwill . . . including 3 sets of golf clubs. Why did we have 3 extra sets of golf clubs, one of which was left-handed? I dunno. But yay for space in our closet!
I finally got my computer set up (it’s been a few days) . . . yay for my new computer!
I can’t get the printer to work - boo for the printer! I hooked it up, followed the install instructions (which basically said to wait while the printer installs itself and downloads the necessary drivers from the web), and tried it. It will only print to file, and then when I specify a file name, it says it can’t. Nice. So I figured, hey, go to the settings and clear that checkbox that says always print to file. Um ya - nice idea . . . when I went to the settings, they were in French. I can’t read French. French is my son’s school’s language of choice, but he’s only in 3rd grade, so he wasn’t much help either . . . boo for French!
I spent my first whole day working at home on my new laptop - yay for being able to sit out on the deck to work instead of in the dungeon!
I made a flier to hang up in the lunchroom at work to sell my car (Anyone want to buy it? 2002 Grand Am GT - 71K - excellent condition!). I tried to print it, but oh wait . . . the printer at home won’t work! So I emailed it to myself at work. Got to work today to print it, but wait . . . I have Office 2007 at home, and office 2003 at work - it wouldn’t open the file. Nice. So I got permission from IT to download the converter thing so I can open Office 2007 docs here at work. Yay for printing the flier!
We listed the car on Craigslist on Tuesday . . . no inquiries yet . . . boo for no inquiries!
Why did we put the car up for sale? Because Mama Got New Wheels!!! Yay for new vehicle!
It’s Labor Day Weekend . . . we’re going to the amusement park, having a BBQ with some friends, and golfing in a couples 4 person scramble with some friends . . . yay for holiday weekends!
Hope you all have lots of fun planned for your long weekend

Yay for all the wonderful things in your life. I hope the car sells quickly and for a good price. Yay for me, I get to read your blog during the night. I really missed it.
French for Jason, how cool is that? I had Latin and no one needs me for that.
I am so happy that your computer is up and running and I hope the printer works soon.

At least there were more YAY’s than BOO’s!
