Blogging from the new laptop...

So, we went on vacation in July/August & when I came back, my laptop had died.  I took it in and it was the "logic board", which basically meant it would cost $700 to replace.  On a 2 year old laptop.  I think not.  But, being me, I drug my feet on purchasing a new one mainly because I hated to spend the money on it.  But with three people working at the studio all trying to use one desktop, I had to give in eventually, and earlier this week, I became the owner of another MacBook Pro.  Supposedly I should be able to get my "stuff" off the other hard drive still, but that hasn't happened yet.  All in due time, I guess.

However, after spending the past two days installing programs and hunting for license keys, I am beginning to enjoy having a functioning computer again.  For one, I was finally able to download and play with the pictures from my vacation.  Yay!   I did some quick tweaking in photoshop/bridge, then loaded them into iphoto, made a cool keepsake book, and even ordered it.  Can't wait to see how it turns out.  I'll have to give a report when it does.

So, I still don't have access to my old hard drive yet, so I'm not sure where I left off on my Project 365 or when I'll be able to retrieve the pictures.  For now, I'll just share some favs from my trip:
