I got it in my head to make cookies yesterday (I'd been having a craving for peanut butter chocolate chip cookies forever but making cooking takes so much more out of me than bars so I hadn't made any in ages) and while they turned out delicious, I was really paying for it by the time I was done and I sat down to relax on my computer... only to find it busted (it had gone to sleep and wouldn't start). Ugh. Son has offered to take it in for me later today. Hopefully it's fixable and not toast. Frustratingly, I thought briefly about backing it up a few days ago, but had been too tired. I have dug out my old laptop for the time being but it had been retired for a reason (it runs Windows 7, lacks updated everything, overheats massively and the motor is headache inducingly loud). I'm going to have to decide if it'll be worth it to try to keep up with the various money making sites I do everyday (swagbucks, tellwut, bing, etc), I usually only earn $2 or so a day but it is nice to earn something... ugh, I dunno. Maybe I'll just run the SB apps and then call it a day? I also had so many bits and bobs started for chocolatebox treats (including almost 3k of one started) which luckily were done in gdoc so I didn't lose, but I did lose the prompts/letters I'd favorited in the app which is annoying, but hopefully I'll be able to figure out what was for which? Also, there's just the general 'what sites do I usually go to and what are their logins' typical frustrations of being on a different device. Ugh.
The cookies came out great, so that's something at least. I froze a bunch but should take a picture of some and post the recipe, as far as cookies go they're actually pretty easy to make and they don't spread at all when baking so you can get them baked in only a few batches.
