State of the Union

Well, here is the story. It all starts with the computer crashing (don't all stories start this way) and having to get a whole new computer. The lovely people that sell you computers say they will transfer all your files and programs seamlessly, but they lie.


I sat down to edit some Easter pics only to find that my editing software is gone. Now, downloading Photoshop is easy peasy. But, finding the 4390 different sites that I downloaded various actions from throughout the years.....not so much. The last time I had to do this took me about 6 hours and I have a straight highway to hell due to all the swear words I used. I rarely use the actual photoshop program to edit, I always use these FREE actions. But, you have to have Photoshop in order to have a place for the actions to go.


The bottom line, I don't post any pictures I don't edit. Plain and simple. I am kind-of obsessed with pictures looking better and nicer if I am taking the time to post them. These are the ones I save to my computer and I get rid of the others. I can't blog without an edited picture so I just haven't blogged.


Then on top of that, the program I use to write my blog isn't installed either. No biggie, you say. Just go to the Microsoft website and download it again, right?  Um, no. I can't figure out how to do it without starting a whole new blog.


So, here I am back at Blogger creating a post. Did you know Blogger has changed completely in the last few months? Who knew? As I type I have no idea how I am going to post this. In fact, I should probably just stop here and see what happens.


My goal is to get around to finding the actions, getting Photoshop loaded, and be up and running by the weekend. Lots has been happening and lots is coming up (including a brief visit from my BFF!) so I need to get this figured out.


Until then, stick with me....will ya?
