Writing this on my new PC, which was my main christmas present. IE 8 won't register for the text editor, so this is being entered in pure HTML.

Windows 7 64 bit is mostly nice. 16 GB of RAM helps (no, that's not a typo). I haven't taxed the system yet, but last nite I had three instances of Visual Studio 2008, a coupla tabs of IE 8, Outlook, Word, and itunes going, and there was no noticeable performance hit. I will be teh codez goddess this year! Also, my new das keyboard is excellent. I wish I could afford one for work, especially the new silent ones they have now, but I barely could justify a hundred dollar keyboard for home, let alone work.

In other, brief news, I'm taking ice skating lessons - yes, at age 42.5, and too many pounds, I'm doing it. Haven't fallen yet. Girls are fine. Dog is fine. Hubby is fine.

I know you've heard this before, but I want to become a regular blogger again, so hopefully this will be one of my successfull new years goals. I have a physical in February, so the weight loss is currently successfull. Knitting, well, I've been distracted by my new toy, but I've done some.

If you keep up with such things, I'm on twitter as kaplooeymom.
