So, Fedex finally shows up about 2:15. I hand him the box with the hard drive. Just like I handed the box with the hard drive to the delivery woman on Tuesday. With the same result. “Oh, that’s ground, I can’t take that.” What? What!
I take the envelope in one hand and carry the box and the envelope into the house. I went back into the office and told Brian we have to get this box out today. Otherwise, they’re gonna charge me for the new hard drive. They said to get it out in three days. Well, yesterday being a holiday, I’m sure that would be forgiven. After all, I didn’t get my disks yesterday and they were sent “overnight”.
I found a place to take the box, not that far from here. I was back in the office, I bent over just a little to pick up the box and got extreme shooting pains through my mid-back. Gah! I don’t need this right now. I want to get my computer up and running!
Brian drove down to the shipping place, I took the box in and left it. On the way down, we were right behind the kid who said it wasn’t his job. Heh. Anyway, the back spasms weren’t too bad. Brian wants to take me to the chiropractor, but we’re not sure if he’s even open today. If he is, they’ll be back answering the phone in five minutes.
If he’s not in, I’m going to see about getting my computer back up. We have lots of Aleve. And calcium. Maybe ice cream might help, too. *lol*
I think I threw my back out yesterday cleaning the shampooer. Remember I said I washed the garage floor yesterday? I also cleaned the shampooer, I took it outside and when it didn’t roll on the grass, I carried it. Bad idea, I’m thinking right now.
Ouch.
But I’ll tough out the pain for the love of my computer.
(I don’t think the chiro will be in, I really don’t.)
================================================4:00 PM
And we’re on the road to recovery! Hard drive is erasing right now, when this is finished, I’ll push the “R” and recovery will commence. Yay! I’m hoping my backup of the C drive will be a major help to resetting the system the way I want it.
