Thursday - the day before FRIDAY!!!

A lot of today was sort of a loss cause - I spent the morning running - to the bank, to the postoffice (which didn't have anything anyway) with phonecalls galore!  Ugh!  Afternoon - a good part was spent at the public library fighting with their computer and their printer (I killed my printer and needed theirs!).  Finally got everything copied I needed to (the quilt patterns I'm behind on and an "assignment" for botany.  Their computer kept trying to close me down - and when I got everything sent to print that I NEEDED (sloooooowwwwwwwwwwwww) and tried to print stuff off (it kept losing it - or saying I didn't exist - or saying I had NOTHING at all!!!! - Ugh!).  finally all taken care of - THREE HOURS IT TOOK!!!!  Egads!

Still and all - I'm truly glad I got it all done - and know that as soon as I can - I'm investing in another printer of my own!
