It’s been a long hot week at work. At times I thought I would melt. It isn’t even been that hot, comfortable I would have called it but the place I work has those big boilers for cooking the tins in. And you can imagine how with their added heat it can get really warm and humid. You’re just glad when the end of the day comes to escape to the sun out side and the cool breeze.
My computer problems continue. It was so bad yesterday I almost the big format. I even moved some things over to my other drive ready to begin. Maybe a defrag might help a little so I’ll run that this weekend and hope. Why do we all hate the idea of wiping our computers and starting from scratch? I think it must be to do with the downtime from the web. Sometimes it amazes me to think that we never had an online world. It is even hard to remember what we did with our time. I used to watch TV more which now seems strange as programmes are no less boring as they were then. Of course not all TV is sleep inducing though much of what I used to view seems so now. Everything else that fills our time is still in our lives kids, family, friends, music, reading, writing, etc, etc. I suppose it shows us how important TV really is in the greater scheme of our life that it was the one thing that became easily replaced with being part of the bigger community.
The good weather has been helping my garden along. My tomatoes are forming some nice fruits and my apples are looking good. At the same time my gooseberry wine needs to be racked this weekend. Seems like I’ll have a busy weekend between the computer, garden and the wine; I might even watch a little bit of telly.
