True Friends

Do you know who your true friends are? I know mine. After what I went through, I can honestly say I know exactly who my true friends are. They are the ones that give support and friendship even when I've been absent. Wow! I can't tell you guys enough how much that touches me. I am ashamed that I've been away for so long. I know that I've lost a lot of time and missed a lot of stuff, but it doesn't feel like it. We can spend time together and not lose any of the connections.

That says a lot! These are my true friends. I love you all.

The Word is Out

It feels bad and good. I had to do it. I couldn't stand it anymore. After I realized that the decision had to be made, it felt good. I'm finally taking my life back. I sent the email today. Almost immediately, I got emails back from people and I'm glad to call these people my friends. They made me feel a tremendous amount of support and I realized I made the right decision. For that, I owe them all a huge thank you!

I know that I made mistakes. I'm at the point of trying to learn from it and move on. I cannot dwell on the past; I cannot change it. So why waste the energy. Instead, I need to take back my future and my life. Today is the beginning of the rest of my life.

I was driving down 101 and I saw this. I had to pull over. 

Asus EEE Laptops

Asus 1000HE: who would have thought that for $400 you can get a light laptop that runs for 9.5 hours on a single battery charge? It is nice to see that technology is getting cheap enough to put into everyone's hands. Most people don't need a large, powerful laptop. They typically want to get to the web and run a few programs. For those that want or need more powerful machines, they're not likely to use a laptop for that purpose anyway. So this definitely makes a lot of sense. Remember when the $100 laptop for kids project seemed like such an impossibility? Now it isn't. I can't wait to see what kids can do when they're growing up with this technology.

Upgrade?

Can you tell what's new?
