i finally got my new computer online. i had a friend transfer my  files, music and pictures from my old computer to my new one. he added microsoft office pro 2010 to the new also. i also have windows 7.  since i had my last computer a number of years i will have this one for a few. so i want the latest software. i am still getting used to it though. i will figure it out. i remember years back when i worked on computers in the service. it was a room full of equipment. it had punch cards, tape drives and rows of equipment. that is all obsolete stuff. its basically all the same thing though. the technology keeps improving. i try to keep up with it.

i am going to pass on the gathering this year. at the summer dance my brother gave me vip tickets to see george jones at our casino that weekend. the gathering will be around for more years, dont know bout ol george tho. hes getting up there. may be my last chance to hear him sing. i like old country but dont care for the new country. it is mostly fusion anyway. its part  rock with country and alittle pop thrown in. so it comes out sounding like something different.

glad today is friday. i like my job but am glad to get off for the week. i am picking vegetables every week now. all the rain we have had is making things grow. i had doubters that are now asking ‘when am i gonna get mine?’ thats fairly typical of some njuns. they dont believe anything til you prove it. then they want to cash in on your hard work. i have been giving tours of the gardens every week. i like doing that. others have told me they will come see the garden.

gotta get to work. just wanted to say i am back online.
