The cable guy was supposed to come today between 10:00-12:00 to hook up our phone line and install cable in our new bedroom and in Sarah's room. I'm sitting here at the computer this morning at 9:00, sorting through my work for today and I hear a knock on the door. Lo and behold the cable guy is here early! Our cable company is offering a digital cable/cable modem/phone line bundle package that will save us around $30 a month. Little did I know it would take the guy three hours to switch the phone line and install two lines. I thought he would never finish. He finally left a little after noon.
So of course now that everything is done I decided to move our furniture into our new bedroom, move Emmas stuff into our old room/her new room. All by myself. I know, I'm stupid. I should have just skipped my workout this morning because I am TIRED. It took me around two and a half hours to get everything moved and settled. Actually not as bad as I anticipated, just some of the furniture was heavy. I'm SO glad it's done, though, and Emma is beyond thrilled to have her own room. I need to finish painting it this weekend.
So after all of that I finally sat down at around 3:00 to get my work done for today, luckily it was a light day. But I was sitting there typing away and all of a sudden the Word screen started flashing at me and I couldn't close the program or save anything or even shut down the computer. Finally I managed to shut it down, but when I rebooted it all of my AutoText stuff for work had been wiped out. ARGH!
You see, with my transcription program I can program things in, like doctors' addresses, frequently used words/terms/phrases, etc. I key in the code I have assigned, hit F3, and it is automatically typed out for me. For example, I type a lot of letters from one doctor to another and they're all local so I address letters to the same doctors over and over again. So if the doctor's address is something like:
John Doe, M.D.
123 Main Street
Nowheresville, OH 43613
I can just type "Doe" and hit F3 and it will insert the entire address for me so that I don't have to look it up or type it every time. It takes a LOOOOOONG time to program all of the names and addresses and words in and that is what disappeared from my program. Not good, but frankly I am too tired to be mad.
I am taking my tired self to my new bedroom and going to SLEEP.
