1/29/11

Woke up around 9:00 this morning groggy. Took all my medications that I normally take and the Dexadrine woke me up eventually. I called Spotlight Beauty Salon and talked to Lie, my hair stylist and she said I could come and get a haircut at noon, so I washed my hair. Got on the computer and posted replys to MDJ discussions and checked emails and facebook. Around 11:15 I went to Starbucks and got me a mocha then left for my haircut. She cut my hair then came home. I wanted another monitor, so I looked online and found one and called Officemax and they had the one I wanted in stock, so I went there and picked one up. Came home and hooked it up. Now I've got two monitors hooked up to my new computer. Yippie! I spend most of my time online, so why not make it an enjoyable experience, right?

I'm happy with my day now that I bought me a monitor. I've got two big monitors now so I can see everything. My desk is a mess though and I need to clean it and reorganize it because of the extra monitor. Maybe later I will do that.

B called me last night and helped me with changing the DPI font on the computer, but it didn't work. Guess they don't want you to do that with Windows 7. He also helped me with the log off feature. I didn't want it to log me off. It kept logging me off and I'd have to log back in after so many minutes. It was annoying me to no end. This Windows 7 is so different than XP. I have XP at work. I asked to be upgraded to Windows 7, but now I'm not so sure I want that. We'll see if I like this one more as I play around with it.

I'm not feeling like I want to go up the hill to Angel's tomorrow. I have to do my laundry, maybe I'll get up early to do that. I just don't like that damn drive up there. It takes two hours out of my day going up there and back. It's tiring doing it too. I do need to see her house though. She got a lot of pictures of us from dad when we were over there for his birthday that she wants me to see too. That will be interesting.

I need to speak to Julie, my youngest sister. She is the one that got beat up by her husband. See how she is holding up. She has it really hard. She makes very little money and she has three girls to take care of. It's hard on her. She should have gotten rid of that loser husband of hers many years ago. He's nothing but trouble and he's a druggie. He's never gone this far though. I don't know what brought this on this time. I guess he writes to them. They aren't allowed to write him back. She is proceeding with the divorce which is good.

I may want to stay up late tonight. I will see how long I last. I love to stay up on the weekends. I usually stay up all night one of the nights. Last night I was too tired I guess. I hit the hay. There isn't much activity on MDJ. I already went through the journals and commented on them. Maybe I'll check them later again. My mood was really good today. Mainly because I got something new I think. I love getting something new. It lifts my spirits. I got my webcam the other day, but I don't have anyone to video call. Maybe I'll ask some of my support group friends to video chat with me.

Tomorrow I need to get up early and get my Sunday paper. Someone stole it last week and it pissed me off. I pay money for that shit. I was wanting the ads because I was looking for a new computer. I looked online at the ads, but they are so hard to read online. I've got to get out there right when he's delivering. That way no one has time to steal it from me. People are so rude these days.
