Still at home...

...and getting bored now.

I'm supposed to be resting and so Mendi issued and Edict to [livejournal.com profile] gardenpixie telling her that I needed to rest because I was tired out from doing stuff in Melton and Oakham on Tuesday and Wednesday. She was right, but managed to issue her edict in a very Aspergic way and upset a Pixie - Hey ho.

I know I was supposed to be resting, but the drift of PC bits on the desk in the office and the incessant grimblings of Alexi and Ivan meant that I spent my morning rebuilding my PC. I made resonable progress and I have caninbalised [livejournal.com profile] chaoshedgerow's old server Rog to provide a chassis and motherboard to my disks and drives. I've still got some stuff to configure - but that involves finding driver disks from amongst the kiffle in the office. Its so bloody tempting to realy tidy the place - but I think that would necessitate ordering a skip or two!

Things to do:
Scrounge a sound card/graphic card for the PC
Configure the modem
Configure the PC for the Network

Things to do (longer term)
Buy another PC for the boys to have as a game PC
Wire up the house for a proper home network
- Must decide if we're going to go wireless
- Configure a PC as a server

I'm still feeling very tired and feeble which is another reason why I won't be doing any travelling this weekend. Hopefully the boys and I will go round to TGT and Sandra's for a quiet Solstice (if there's such a thing - especially if Pixie and Ginger Jen will be there)
