Well…still crippling this old laptop along until I make a decision on  a new one…I can get a better one direct from Dell for about the same price as the Acer so that’s something to think about…didn’t get much done today after scrubbing the porch siding yesterday and getting up pretty sore today…I did get three rides in for 33 miles this morning…just heard some thunder but I’m not seeing any rain so I won’t get my hopes up…it hasn’t rained here in almost a month so we could really use some…it looks like I’ll get to 10,000 miles without replacing the driveline on the bike since it has been working really well for the whole summer and I might just as well use the sprockets and chain up and then replace the whole thing over the winter…I do have one more night of cocktails for tonight and may watch the new “Beetlejuice” movie but we’ll see…might just get caught up on some shows or go into the library to see if there is anything interesting…but right now I’m going to read for an hour or so…
