quick update

Hi Everyone,
Hope you're all doing well! I miss you all very much. I have some updates in the technology realm. My dad is going to purchase a new mac (one of those need dual core ones) and he is giving me his old fifteen inch power book) hurrah! I am more of a mac person than I am a PC though I have gotten strangely attached to my thinkpad. Anyways in formatting the sweet ipod nano that y'all gave me for my birthday to the powerbook, I ran into a lot of glitches. I'm still working hard at trying to hear all the neat songs you've donated to me on the flash drive. It's the gift that keeps on giving. I'm thinking by the end of the year, I'll finally have my nano up and running. As you may have guessed I'm not necessarily having the most "spiritual" of vacations, particularly if my main update has to do with macs and nanos. note to self:) nonetheless, in the spirit of sharing what I've been reflecting on or learning - i'm just learning how great it is to "just be" whether it is spending time with the family, catching up on sleep, watching old reruns of Veronica Mars (don't ask) or fiddling with technology. one particularly sweet tradition we've developed is going to Saddleback for Christmas Eve. usually they have a candle lighting at the end of the service which is a real high light for me.
