The Computer Is Up and Running!

Thanks to Rafe’s counsel, largely, my computer is up and running.  Doing the fresh install myself would have been possible, if it told me WHICH partition to delete.  How did I know all my drivers would go away if I removed the first one? :)  R helped me get them back yesterday.

Today I downloaded more updates and imported all my old bookmarks.  I can access my Firefox bookmarks for the first time since August!  :)   I’m so excited.

Other news: I have SOOOO many self help books courtesy of work.  I read 2.5 last week.  We’ll see if I can get through them all.  I feel a need to since everyone from works says I won’t.  I like to prove people wrong…sometimes.

    Didn't see this pop up on Disqus for some reason....

    Yay your computer is fixed! How exciting! I'm sorry I couldn't be more helpful...

    Check out Foxmarks- they're a way to store your Firefox bookmarks online so you can sync them between multiple computers. Might be helpful in your case.

    What kind of self-help books? I'm currently stumbling through When Things Fall Apart by Pema Chodron:
    http://www.amazon.com/When-Things-Fall-Apart-Di...
    which is arduous but helpful.

    What's the point of getting through so many self-help books a week if you don't implement them? Read anything helpful?

    Yeah! Disqus isn't working for me either. I'm not getting comment emails
    until y'all respond. I have to respond manually from the site.

    Hmm. I should definitely check out Foxmarks. Thanks!

    All sorts... They are from the self-improvement books awards we do. You
    can peruse them anytime. One of Pema's books is an Audiobook finalist this
    year. :)
  • jsmall
    Sweet! Do you have the Audiobook?
  • sarahdenise
    It wasn't that exact title and no... If they book is a finalist, I don't
    get to keep it unless it was entered in two categories. I do have random
    finalists from the last three years though. Ha.
  • jsmall
    A finalist for what?
  • sarahdenise
    The self improvement book awards we host each February. I don't want to be
    more specific or this could come in someone's internet search. :)
  • sarahdenise
    Btw, good choice on the book. :)

    I just like reading them. I've found that frequently a lot of them have the
    same advice...

    Mainly I've been reading the Inspirational Memoirs, which take less time and
    don't have steps. Easier.
