See these computers? The one on the bottom was the major high-speed box of awesomeness that my brother gave me. Well, that's the one that exploded. It has its back to us in shame. We tested its parts individually in the computer directly in front of it (with the white disk drives), and we think it's the hard drive that crapped out. Which is a shame, seeing as it's 80 gigs. We thinking of reformatting it and reinstalling Windows.
Anyway, the computer with the black drives is my old computer. It works all right, but it doesn't play games.
With a toddler who is addicted to Roller coaster Tycoon, this is not an option.
So I'm on the compy with the white disk drives, my husband's old Frankenstein. It works all right, so at least I have a semi-fast game computer.
All this computer shuffling initiated spring cleaning.

This was our living room. Now picture the two munchkins frolicking about in the mess. I took them down to McDonalds and the grocery store while my husband worked on cleaning it.
We went down and bought some new storage units, too.

We could have done with two or three more of those shelf-towers, actually. One was not nearly enough!
And now .... drumroll, please ...

Ta-da! All tidy and spiffed up! It makes our living room feel so much bigger.
So yeah, it's been a heck of a weekend.
Coffee, you are my greatest friend.

Not my photo. I can't take photos this good.
