This, That And A Bit Of The Other

It's been busy as of late.  Well, I don't know if it's busy as much as scatterbrained, which tends to make one think they're busy ;-)

I've settled my Mac addled brain finally, once and for all.  As much as I've gone on and on about wanting a MacBook Pro, I've decided on one of the new iMacs.  After seeing one up close and personal I was totally smitten.  I just cannot justify the cost of the MacBook Pro when I'm really, honestly not very interested in portability.  All summer, I can't think of more than about 3 times I had the Vaio outside.  When going on holiday I never, never take the notebook as it's one of the things I'm happy (for a period of time) to get away from.  BH always takes his so that we have something to offload photos from our cameras to, and we just don't 'do' the internet on holiday.  With the iMac I'm able to afford more memory (4GB!)and a much larger hard drive (750GB!), and still pay less.  I really like the idea of the iMac's "all in one" concept and it just looks soooo lovely!  For me at least, the main selling point of the MB Pro is portability . . . something I just don't need, or really want.  And to share my joy with you all, I'll photo op it's arrival/unpacking when it gets here.  I'm hoping to order in the next week or so and will be on needles and pins until it shows up, lol.

I have been doing a few other things besides sitting still and debating the wonders of MacBooks/MacBook Pro's/iMacs.  Below are a few foody photos of recent creations.





I've been neglecting lots of things in my 'scatterbrained' state of late.  There's the forum that I'm meant to be creating for a website I'm part of, I've probably spent a whole 4 hours on that with about 40 more needed from what I can tell.  There's the dusting that's taken a back seat lately.  Our bedroom has two sets of glass shelving (4 shelves each) and the dust is thick enough to give them a decent 'snow covered' effect.  Ewwwww......  I did, however, get the 2 freezers defrosted last week - so  a star on my chart!

I simply cannot stand it one more minute, I'm off to Apple UK to claim my iMac!  Details to follow.  Somehow I don't think you've heard the end of this just yet **very, VERY big grin**
