Sorry, new computer

Sooner or later I will get it all set up and have time to sit down and write. At least yesterday I found the missing registration key for my copy of Microsoft Word, so after five years of using an outdated word processor I can type with the fancy "new" (eh, okay, after that long in the box, languishing unused, it isn't really all that new but still...) one I bought so long ago.

While I am downloading firewalls and Internet answering machines and fixing display properties and attempting to write the Farm Side with an unfamiliar keyboard and word processing program I invite you to enjoy bloggers who are posting frequently.

Liz, although she is still coughing and we are now thinking maybe it's whooping cough, is writing every day at BuckinJunction.

Hurricane Teen who keeps The Minorcan Factor fascinating, has been posting pictures of secret lizards, fiery peppers and luxuriant citrus fruit lately.

Swen, A Coyote at the Dogshow, is on the road in Texas and thereabouts. He has a real good post about fair chase in hunting that is worth a read.

A new face in the blogroll, My Piece of Heaven is posting pictures of just what winter can do when it wants to (just in case all us spoiled Northeasterners have forgotten this year). They are lovely and chilling all at the same time.

Heck, when I have time I just read right down the blogroll, Pure Florida, Sarpy Sam, Upstream, another new face the Poodle and Dog Blog all offer good reading and update nearly every day.

Have a good time reading........

Hi FC, as of yesterday afternoon I have them almost set up and most of the software put where it needs to be. Just waiting for an update on the cows from Dairy Records Management and one more application and I will be able to take the one that is crashing down completely. It was never a good system...hmmm Windows 98, wonder why...and I will NOT miss it!This new one has a really sweet keyboard and I am going to enjoy it.

And Joni, thank, sorry to be out of order...not awake yet. I love your blog and I know others will too...your photos are spectacular, especially the one of the hay bales buried in the snow. I called the boss out to see that one!
