i've been freaking out coz i've booked and paid for our trip to bali in may and of course i have to have more surgery. i received a letter from the hospital on thursday saying that my pre op consult is on the 2 march and my procedure will be on saturday 10 march. yes saturday. they are so backed up they do surgeries on saturdays. good for me coz i should recover in plenty of time to go away which i was so stressed about, not be mention getting sick again. also, the library where i was working an extra day per week, and gave me the boot a few months ago, wants me back. lmfao. i'm going back tuesdays. they are desperately understaffed and have no-one to do the council desk. lots of the staff are casuals from an agency and are not council trained. i went to ikea this morning with my son and dil. we had a lovely morning. i bought a replacement bedside lamp for the one that exploded the other night. scared the glitter out of me. it made such a loud noise. i thought it was just the globe but alas the lamp is kaput. i also got some lovely vanilla candles and a few kitchen gadgets. coz i love gadgets. i'm working tomorrow. just thought i'd throw that in. :) i'm also trying to update my old laptop. i loaned it to my sister and she's got another one now. the kids can use it when they stay over. it uses xp which is a bit yesterday. i can't download chrome for it. it's a bit slow and i think it only has a hdd of about 80 gb. i might actually reinstall windows and clean it out. i'm defraging atm. it's taking forever. oh well. enjoy the rest of your w/end everyone.
some pics of siamese darlings. too bad if you don't like cats hey? :)

ReplyDeleteit's all good Matthew :) and i won lotto today. $12.40. not quite enough to retire. :)
DeleteI am not a cat person but these pics are so cute I love pic of kittens oh so cute........hope all goes well with your surgery and it doesn't get cancelled or anything....
ReplyDeletethanks Jo-Anne. i'm crossing my fingers. yes, kittens are cute. they are lovely to watch
DeleteDe-fragging is a drag!I do find that if I do a disk cleanup first (which takes waaaaaay longer), defragging time is reduced heaps. My old war horse computer uses XP, and only has 30G of space. Everything non esssential goes. It's old, slow and clunky but I do love it so! I am on the new machine at the moment, which Jez normally hogs. I haven't installed Chrome - is it much better?
ReplyDeletehi Cindy, thanks for the tip about disc cleanup, i'll try that next time. i tried chrome ages ago and didn't like it but this time i prefer it. it takes up less screen space and it's got some features that ie doesn't have. my son uses ubuntu which is non windows. he loves it. the old lappy is fine for the kids when they come over. they can do facebook and youtube which is all they want really. :)
DeleteHope you didn't book on Air Australia. Good luck with your op and holiday.
