THE TIMEKEEPER CHRONICLES

I recently shortened and updated the earlier version of this video in which depicts Mikayla's journey with Osteosarcoma. I added a few extra pictures near the end, and took a few out in order to cut it down to one song (slightly extended).

Plans are to share this video with folks involved with the upcoming Relay For Life in April. Susan is on the Mulberry board, and think sharing this video would provide our experience..the bad and the good. God Bless.

*Update for techies: I switched from Youtube to IMEEM - I like the look and performance of this player better. CYA

I yanked the hd out of the corrupt pc (on the floor) and stuck it in an old computer I had in order to retrieve as much recent data as possible. This was fun.
Here I am considering a final fate for the PC
Here is it getting formatted


Hello folks. Nice to be here. There has been some much unexpected technical difficulties at the Miller's house. One big enough to have to do the ol' FDISK! I will take some of the blame for this failure, but I give most of it to STUPID NORTON INTERNET SECURITY.

You know, I'm big into keeping our computers/home network safe from all the crap that's out there. And I have been updating and giving my money to Norton for the last 6 years to do so. And overall, everything has been fine until.....they recently wanted me to update my Norton to the latest NIS2008....for free! How could I not do that? Well, I shouldn't have, because the next thing I know web pages wouldn't load, you couldn't print from either IE7 or Outlook Express. And here I go, searching about a million forums, Windows updates...every where in order to find what what happened, and to get a fix. In my journeys, I did find enough information to get the thing to where it would work, but things still weren't quite right. In another forum, I discovered that the problem could lie in the registry. Our computer *had* two admin accounts, one being mine, and one being Susan's. It was her account that had all the problems (now why is that?) Anyway, a long story short, I went screwing around with the registry to see if I could get it to work, and WALA!.............IT DIDN'T! Not only did it not fix the problem, it completey CRASHED.

My head hung low. I've been defeated. This piece of crap. Like alot of people nowadays, the home computer is almost a necessity because we now do so much with them. My biggest thing has been the videos, pictures, all the editing software, financial stuff, etc. But, I am at least half way smart, I did have a bunch of backups...actually one as recently as January. How about that.

The Dell had to be formatted, and a fresh copy of WinXP Pro installed. And there is NO Norton on my computer. (I recommend AVGFree for all you cheapo's out there - it works perfect). Other than all the work that I had to do get this thing up and going again, it actually has been a blessing because the thing runs as good as it did when I got it. And Susan is happy because I can now stop talking about getting a new computer (at least for a while).

Just in case your interested, there's a WOOT-OFF happening now. Also, if your an avid Woot Checker such as myself, here's a neat little tool made just for woot checking so you won't miss any of those deals. Pretty cool.

Some pics from the old days when my daughter actually liked me :-)

I printed this out, and put in on the fridge. Yeah, you know. The way things 'oughta' be. What is up with these liberalized women?(Again, I'm in the dog house)



You married dudes out there should click on this pic, print it out, and put it on your fridge too and see what happens.

First, you should get this nice note...

Then, you should have this newly designed toilet paper to use.

At least, that's what happened to me.

Geez. I was only trying to be helpful. You know...give out some pointers.

LOL
