Current events

So i found out to use my huge-mongous hard drive in linux I was going to have to reformat it with a different file system. To do that and not lose all my music, photos and various programs and other stuff I had to put everything on CD. Took a little time but I got it done..my biggest fear was that the disks wouldn't burn corrently or they'd get scratched or something else that would result in not getting all my files back onto my hard drive. Well. Time comes for me to start putting stuff back. First thing I check on are my photos. Music I can get back. Programs I can redownload or borrow. The photos from some of the places I've been are going to be pretty damn impossible to replace - my friends, and events I experienced with them.

Needless to say by now, my fear became reality. While most of the photos still transferred back safely, I think half of the archives have something wrong with them. I was able to recover some of those photos. but I'm still pissed.

The rain outside is frustrating me. Or rather the lack of steady rain. I'm working on a project out in the yard which requires some sawing and drilling...both electric. So I start putting stuff away as soon as it looks like it's going to come down. And with as unpredictable as the rain is recently, it could pour after just a few sprinkles.

Luci. I haven't spoken with her in a few days. Before she left for NY for her bilogical father's wake/funeral...something. I'm terrible with details, and apologize for it. Either way...her dad died, and although it hasn't stressed her out as much as it has her siblings, other incidents surround his death have affected her a little. Also, she has had to be the calm in the storm for the others it seems.

I hope this past weekend went as well as possible considering the circumstances. All of them. And if she need someone to talk to about this past weekend and what went on, and needs a shoulder to lean on, well, I'm glad to lend mine. However, I strees that my shoulderis for this past weekend and it's events. Not for matters between us.

I'm also curious as to Bean's number of teeth now, and how far she can walk unassisted. It was such a good feeling seeing her waslk while I was down there a few weeks ago, even if it was only a few steps - she stood and did it herself. *grin*

Well it looks like the rain decided to not come through for the moment. Stupid weather. I'm back off to the yard to hopefully finish this part of the framework for the pond.

Hope to talk at ya'll all later - whoever all is reading this.
Be safe out there. And enjoy life.
As much as life sucks sometimes...it's still damn good.

**Hugs to all**
