Computer Woes + a freebie

Hello Dear Readers! I've been so busy with working, family and my latest challenge of dealing with computer woes. In the last 9 months, I've had so many computer issues, including 2 failed EHD's, trying to set up a new computer and then having that one fail. Last week I was seconds away from doing a full system wipe/system restore to original factory settings. I could go into detail, but I'm so short on time! I missed this month's blog train, participating in my store's last 2 collaborations, not to mention making anything new or scrapbooking a single thing. I'm extremely frustrated. 2 weeks ago yesterday, I had an actual temper tantrum over the computer, complete with tears and a lot of swearing! At the age of 47, nothing much fazes me anymore, but I lost it with this stupid computer! This is a new computer that my husband bought me as a surprise for Valentine's Day because of all the troubles my old computer was giving me! LOL At the ripe old age of 6 weeks, the new computer no longer worked properly. I am still looking at the system restore, (as of wipe the computer system restore), but for a few days, I found a temporary relief.

Frustratingly as well, I couldn't get Photoshop to see any of my plugins. I downloaded and installed the trial version of Photoshop CS4. It has both a 32 bit and a 64 bit version that install simultaneously. I'm told then I can use my old 32 bit plugins/filters with the 32 bit version. Yeah, right. No matter what version I click on, it's the same one that appears to open up and I can't get it to see any plugins. I haven't done much research on the problem as I've been busy just getting my computer to even function. Now Photoshop CS5 is about to be released, so I figure I'll just wait and get that trial version and see how it goes. I haven't decided if either is worth the big bucks to upgrade.

To make up for my absence, I'm sharing an old Fontalicious Fun font challenge posting bonus mini kit I made a couple years ago. I hope some of you will like it! The preview is the original one that came with the file.
