Happy September gang!
I know the solstice isn't until the 22nd, but there is a definite autumn nip to the air this morning and I'm watching a few yellow leaves drop from the tree off our back deck. And I'm glad to see the back of this summer.
We had a fine vacation, but since we got back it's just been one mini crisis after another. If it's not something at my work, it's something at home. Then we resolve those and something goes sideways at Pam's work. Then something else goes wrong at home.
I just had to ditch McAfee in favor of Norton on the laptop. McAfee did some kind of update, but I never saw a notice for it. So last weekend, McAfee started blocking the internet. I didn't know what was wrong, so Comcast came out. I got an updated modem, but that didn't fix the problem. Then we figured out that it was McAfee and that I hadn't updated. So I uninstalled it...that's tough by itself because McAfee just doesn't want to let go. Once I got it out, the internet popped right back up. I quickly downloaded Norton and got back in business.
Then the DVR cable box went wonky. Comcast is coming out today to fix that.
I won't even go into the insanity at work. It's not worth rehashing.
As to the renovations, I cleaned up my Google Reader last night. There were a lot of inactive blogs. I hate to delete them because you never know when someone decides to come back to blogging. So I created a new category and moved them all there. That way I clear out all of the clutter from my standard rounds but don't lose site of some old pals who just might decide to post something again some day.
I found out that some of those old blogs have gone private. What do y'all do when you run into that but you haven't been invited? Do you message the blogger and ask? Or do you just move on and wonder? I moved those blogs over to the Privatized or Inactive folder. I guess I'll just wait on them, but I sure do miss those folks.
So anyway, September is here and I really need the distraction of planning my office Halloween. And football. Did I mention that the NFL season kicks off next week?
Joy!
Later gang!
Looks like Dianne @ Forks Off the Moment got caught up in the McAfee thing too. I think that they've lost a lot of business over this fiasco. Glad that you're back and up and running. :)
