The old computer.
\nFor the last six months or so, I’ve had two computers sitting on my desk in the living room. We kept the old office computer as a backup when we switched from Gateway to Dell. The Gateway runs on Windows 95 and is a dinosaur compared to the one I use now. I plan to save some of the files to disk, and then move them to the new personal computer. Then I can clear off the clutter where I work in the living room. It will be nice to have the wires out of the way. A little elf told me that there are devices that you can use to corral all the cords, to keep them tidy. That sounds like a great item for my Christmas wish list.
\nI left the computer running the other night, when I went to sit with DH and watch a TV program. The new computer fan really makes a racket, so I’m thinking about what I could use to create a short screen that would block some of the noise. I don’t want to box the computer in, or it will overheat, but maybe I can redirect some of the noise. Maybe I can cover a square of rigid insulation with fabric, or a quilt pattern that would fit in with the rest of the decor.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
