Oh, just the usual. But I admit, I was constantly checking in to see if the boards were up again.

I sat poking at Facebook, waiting for something interesting to show up. Nothing did.

Buried up to my ear lobes in Cisco homework but popped in every now and then to see if things were back up.

You mean the boards were down over the weekend????
Weekends are not spent on the computer they are spent on remodeling the house, sheep chores, working the dogs, farm chores, etc.

I'm trying to get to the point where I can unchain myself from the computer and spend weekends doing the much needed work around the farm. Alas, I can't do some of that needed work without some monetary input, and right now gaining monetary input means meaning tied to the computer every day of the week. Bleh.

Julie, I'm lucky in that I have a full time job AND until my employer builds a lab at my farm I can't take work home.

I've always thought our 3 silos would make good places for reactors (bio diesel) or distillation apparatus (fuel ethanol ;) ).
