This has been a crazy week let me tell you. I've been running around to this appointment and that appointment, working and just going nonstop ALL week long. I'm thankful for the weekend but at the same time...not so much. There's laundry to be done, laundry to be put away, some left over paperwork to be finished and then to find time to relax...and/or to get motivated to get all my stuff done.
To add to all this fun, my desktop decided it isn't sure if it wants to work consistently or if it wants to freeze up on me. First it was my computer monitor would just shut down...got that fixed or so I think. Now it's my mouse wants to freeze on me which causes me to have to restart the computer. The CPU still runs though when these freezes happen so I'm not sure if it's a power supply issue or if it's a motherboard issue or hell maybe the inside of my CPU is just really dirty and in desperate need of a cleaning. So that's where I'm going to start. At some point this weekend I'll unplug everything from my 'puter and pull the cover off to hose it down ( not literally but yeah) with a can or two of compressed air. Yes, I have even gone through my desktop and deleted stuff they've downloaded and ran virus scans and whatnot. Disk cleanup, disk defrag, etc. I even updated my drivers and stuff. The only other option I can think of is to do a complete reinstall and see if that helps. I hate doing all this junk but it's gotta get done if I want my desktop to possibly start working as it should. Granted I'm planning on updating my desktop...but not until like April of next year.
Currently I'm using my laptop and if all else fails this will become the family computer. Ack! I don't like that idea because I hate when my kids download junk. It always seems to cause some issue.
Now..onto the
Saturday meme called Weekly WrapUp...
I refer to music alot in my blog. I'm also a big fan of not only music but the lyrics in the music. I can relate to alot of music and I find that it often times fits my mood or expresses how I'm feeling, etc. when I just can't seem to find the words. So...as I was sitting here wanting to blog about something but not sure what to blog about..I started going through the memes I've done in past. So here's what I found.
What significance, if any, has music had in your life over the past week? I've been a music hound all week. Whether it's just for fun to listen and watch my kiddos sing and dance or to reflect on my life as it is in present time.
How do you usually listen to music (CD, radio, MP3 player, elevators, computer)? My ipod or on the computer.
Are you a casual listener or a more serious music fan? I'm a music...fanatic. I love music and a variety of music. I listen to everything from classical to country. I can't do opera though. I've tried but it's just not my thing.
What are a couple of your favorite musicians or songs? Where do I begin? I like a variety of artists and songs. Let's see... Linkin Park, Muse, Pink, Paramore, Johnny Cash, Lonestar, Colbie Caillat, Nina Gordon, Taylor Hicks, Daughtry, Kelly Clarkson and I can't leave out the big hair bands of the 80's...see what I mean? I wont even touch on my favorite songs. I have way to many to list and I can't just pick a couple.
