and I'm taking it personally :-)

I've asked for a new laptop for my birthday but that's not until the end of October. DH turns 65 this Saturday and his SS payments begin next month which will help us enormously; he's been retired since March 2006 (me, July 2005) and we've been making it okay but the latest stock market downturns have made it too hard to wait until he's fully vested in SS at 66. It's like $20,000 a year and we kind of need that now :-)

So, I have to put up with this computer whose "mouse" button doesn't work; luckily it has two kinds of mouse buttons, I'm just not use to using the other one so it's annoying and I keep using the opposite mouse mover option so it's difficult to hold down the one button and highlight.

I want to consolidate my really old desktop (7-8 years) and this laptop (only 5 yearsish) onto the laptop and give the desktop away. That's going to take some time as all my good old stuff from before I moved, retired, etc. is stored on the desktop. I guess it's like stuff in a closet, if you haven't seen it in that long. . .

It's helping keep me off the computer as much though since it's not as "easy" to use :-)
