Return

I think it has something to do with the extra daylight or something, but I keep wanting to get back to my different projects and get something done with them.

I noticed that this appears to happen every year at about the same time, it just that I have never in the past bothered to note down and record the fact, so here am I recording the fact that I feel an itch or even a compulsion to do something to each of my projects that have sat now, some of them for months.

The big and burning question is which project should I have a go at first?

At this time I do not know which one would be great to start with first.

I must admit that one problem that I have not yet solved for some of the projects is that I am now on a new computer which runs a new operating system, which is called Vista, now to me XP was better and you knew where things where and how it worked.

For some reason stuff has either been renamed or even moved and for what I can see I can't fathom why some of the changes have been made. It also appears that I am not the only person who also thinks this, but this is all a side note to the fact that some of the software that I used on my old machine was already old on that so you can imagine just how old it is and so when I tried to install it the end result was, well no result in that it did not install. As you can probably tell this did not make me happy, to add to the fun? some of the software I use has suffered in that the company that used to make it have been taken over and the new company does not offer any patches to allow their software to run on the new operating system, in fact I think they want you to buy the latest software at their very latest price.

Now some of the software I used was brought cheap, I mean Knock down prices, because at that time it was old and near end of line and there was a new version of the software out which had the latest bell and whistles and all that sort of stuff.

So as I can't affored to spend 600 uk pounds on software that I only use perhaps once a month or so I shall have to spend some time on Google and find out how other folk out there got there old software running on new hardware and operating systems, I mean I can't be the only one with this problem surely!

Anyway I think I have ranted enough, I am also sure that I have said all of this before in an earlier Blog, but as this is my space my words I can repaet myselft as much as I want.

Mind you if I keep doing this I will not get on with the projects will I?
