Trying To Get Back.......

Helloooooooooo Friends....
Eegads....I knew I'd not been here for awhile....just didn't realize HOW long it's been.
The Spouse and I are doing fine....we're in the midst of the

Life since the end of June has been...
eat...
sleep...
cut kits...
repeat....

I'ld mentioned several posts back that my dear little red lap top computer was nearing the end... 
we did manage to keep her on life support for several more months....

She finally gave up the ghost and now I'm dealing with trying to make friends with my new/old Dell...
It's a love/hate relationship... 

And then today this happened....
Sharing a post I just added to Facebook....

And so it goes......
"Still in mourning over the demise of my longtime assistant Ms.Della 
(my little red Dell Studio LT)
....relations with her replacement have not been all that amicable.

I have used Print Shop - 4EVER...don't judge...
it's what I KNOW!

Trying to load the program since last evening...
only to realize how really antiquated it is 
(then again...so am I...perfect match)...

Error messages that some "Framework" NEEDED from Microsoft 
is NOT compatible with my 'platform' 

(that in itself sounds rather personal...how dare they judge my platform!)

Did some googling...
found advice that I could in fact download said "framework"....
learned how to fool my 'now' laptop' into thinking they were just made for each other......

....I read the steps

.....and decided to visit our computer geeks next door for help 
(I know I'm a quilter...NOT a computer gal...I'm ok with that)....

.....they offered to help but not until next week...
maybe...
 (that's ok I know they stay very busy)

Decided to give it a whirl and try on my own...
after all the worse that could happen is that I'd just uninstall what didn't work 
(computereze peeps...I hear you snickering)....
but guess what?

I DID IT!!!!!!!!!!!!
I.AM.AMAZING!
(lol...still humble but everyone deserves 5 seconds to be a Rock Star)

I still have to upload a ton of files from my old gal...
sadly they are being held hostage in Ms Della's oh-so-hard-drive

We will need the aid of our computer neighbors with that one.

Meanwhile...
Really Trying To Get Back!
Have missed you all!

And now....we return to our previous scheduled program....
