it is so terrible how i have let every device other than my phone become unusable trash. my own brain for computers has reduced to what i can optimistically call a blank slate. i had to use google to remember how to uninstall a program from windows. every few minutes this laptop will sputter and struggle to display a "not responding" message and i think that has less to do with the volume of stuff on my hard drive and more to do with what i have just let sit and fester for so long. the sims 4 was taking up over 18gb of storage alone and i haven't played that in at least three or four years. i couldn't bring myself to delete simcity though! i would really like to make fl studio more useful to myself again. someday i will upgrade from my trial version, and i have been doing a lot more home recording lately, so maybe that day will come soon; for now, just being able to use what i have effectively with the tools that i have can be enough of a win.
i had a really nice week off of work! got lots of sun, spent some time with my husband, played music with friends, got a new tattoo that i really love, walked in the woods, made tasty food, saw loved ones. really just kind of all over the place with good stuff going on! i'll have more to update soon maybe
