I took the day off from gardening yesterday because Les came up to assemble the new computer for us.  I selfishly wanted to spend as much time with him as I could but I’m sure all the questions drove him nuts.  He probably felt like he was on the phone at an IT desk and had a real ditz on the other end.  He could have been mentally shaking his head but he was patient and loving during the whole ordeal. 

He started with two brown cardboard boxes full of unknowns and plenty of styrofoam peanuts that Brandy thought could taste pretty good.  Sometime after supper he had assembled, staged, and had it up and running.  While in between installing programs on the new C P U he brought the computer from upstairs down and set it up in a corner by the French doors. 

Jay had from the desk at the Goodwill store in Clio and fits in that corner nicely.  I have since brought the Operator chair over to use at this location and had Les bring the armed roll around chair from upstairs to use at the new CPU area.  Jay is going to cut down the the keyboard shelf from the old upstairs desk to fit the smaller desk. I haven’t decided how to solve the missing drawers problem yet.  Also I had better stop moving things into the area or we will have to eat out in the backyard soon.  It looks like Mommas Corner is spreading out all over just like Momma!

So there you have it a whatever thing with a ‘dual core’ processor, a DVD/CD burner, and a few other bells and whistles that I don’t understand .  But what I do understand is that it is faster than a greased pig on a play ground slide and I have time to learn about now.
