Its been a long hard day and I'm only now getting a chance to unwind. Going car hunting and looking at the (not very good) selection of what we can buy with the insurance money did not do any good for my stress levels. We knew we were getting a real bargain with the last car, but its just now sinking in how much of a bargain it really was.
In other news I finally re-assembled the machine I want to turn into a server machine. All of its parts have checked out and are working. The dining table isn't quite clean yet, because I still need to put in the old disk from Linda's old machine. Its currently standing in as an emergency backup of itself... Once Linda has taken all of her important files, software licenses and the like off of the backup drive, and successfully backed up her machine to the backup drive, we'll be in a position to format the emergency backup and use it for other things.
So, all in all, I shouldn't complain about how today went, but note that I still reserve the right to gripe about it anyway!
