Hey, I'm BACCCKKKKKKKKKKKK! At least, I hope so. My best friend
loaned me her 386, with Windoze 3.0, no less, and I was LOST. I bought a new
fast modem for it, couldn't get it to work, so I swapped the new modem for a
USR Sportster 14,400 that I could not get to work. All three programs that I
tried to use (ProComm, QModem, and Telix) showed that it was online when it
wasn't. So I did some swapping with Dean and ended up with his old 486 that
at least has OS/2Warp on it, so I am starting to feel back at home.
I am staying with my aunt; she is very nice and it almost feels like
home but I found the place that I want and made an offer on it. It has horse
privileges but no horse setup, and right now I am pretty happy with where
they are so I am in no great rush to move them. It is a lot that has almost
1/2 and acre, with irrigation, and is very centrally located. It's got TWO
houses on it, a 3 bdm., 2 FULL bath house with a dining room, etc., as well
as a guest house with 720 square feet. Which is almost as big as the first
house I owned was! It's also got a full living room and full bath - the full
bath part I am particularly happy with as I am tired of HAVING to take
showers when what I REALLY want is a BUBBLE BATH!
I already have mental plans to fence in the whole thing with an electric
gate out front, maybe get a miniature horse or two and a llama so I won't
have to do yardwork! Oh, yeah, the trees there are HUGE! Both houses are
slump block so they won't need to be painted. And both have fairly new
heating and cooling systems.
One problem, on this end, though - I can only get on the modem after my
aunt goes to bed, so my participation here may be spotty until I move. But I
am so excited!
