I've just about completed the chore of encoding our home videos and storing them on DVD. While watching this footage roll by I realize how cyclic our lives really are. Every Christmas and birthday seems to be a duplicate of the one a year before. The only difference is the kids are a year older, which may make for an interesting video if done right. However, that will have to wait. I need to collect enough juicy stuff for the wedding video that I am presently formulating.
Had to put that project on hold last night as Dianne's brand new computer just went insane. I suspect a virus or a trojan. We couldn't get anything to work on it all of a sudden. It kept crashing when trying to open any program and was unbearably slow. I reinstalled XP and it worked a little better but is still not 100%. I may have to resort to reformatting and starting again..which may not be that bad as there is not much on the machine as yet.
A trip for an alignment on the Corolla ended up costing a whole lot more than expected yesterday as four new tires were required as well. But the ride with the new Michelins is a lot smoother and quieter, especially on the icy roads which seem to be prevailing here lately.
