Good evening, Dave.

So now I'm back up and working.  My machine is running, with some slightly adjusted software, ( I had to download OpenOffice to be able to open my wps files) and I'm back on the treadmill.  My first draft is up to an 82k word count, and aside from having lost a TON of stuff, like all my demotivational posters, the life has resumed.  Onward and upward.
