this is so not me.

i've been meaning to do this for a while, start a blog, for years to be exact. and it's ironic that the thing that got me to finally start a blog is not having a computer. you see, my computer died. the nvidia chip is bad, the logic board is $1000 to replace so... done. i managed to get my 12 year old g3 up and running (after resetting the PRAM, a kernel panic and having to erase the hard drive and reinstall os panther) but it's kind of slow. lots of spinning rainbow circles.

i am asking everyone i know to donate $1.00 to help me get a new computer. i am not good at asking for help, so this is a huge stretch for me. i know i am lucky, i am grateful for everything i have, my health, my job, a roof and food, friends and family. i am lucky to have the g3, no matter how slow it is, but it's a stopgap. i need a new computer (or a refurb) to follow my dreams and start my etsy business, write parent newsletters, etc...

so help me get a new computer! please! you get to feel good for helping me, a good person who needs help, and you'll get karma points too. and i will be forever grateful to you, for your help. there's a paypal donate button to the right... left? i'm directionally dyslexic, i don't know; it's over there on the side, and you can donate the dollar through that. thank you!!

this blog isn't going to be all about that, it'll be other stuff too, life stuff, crafty stuff, fun stuff. and if you can't help, or don't want to, no worries. i appreciate you just reading!! so take it easy and i'll see you back here real soon.
