I am very done Christmas shopping. I do not buy gifts for that many people, so it isn’t a terribly big feat. I did a lot online. In fact, I am wondering if it is time to sign up for the rewards program at… Continue Reading “The Christmas Shopping”
My brother looked at my laptop and all of its stuff. He makes some calls. He figures out that the problem with my hard drive is covered under my one-year warranty. I bought it on December 16, 2007. While on the phone with the… Continue Reading “Dilemma”
