Microsoft Lawsuit Opinion

 In the early days of working with Microsoft they would help you so much, one agent spent 45 minutes with me make sure I knew what I was doing.  Of course, things changed as they got bigger but I always felt they were working for us and I loved their products when I was up and them and using them all the time.

Letter to Sen. Barbara Boxer, Sen. Dianne Feinstein, Rep. Wally Herger

I feel anger and disbelief at the comments that the judges findings today on the Microsoft lawsuit are good for the consumer.  I have worked on computers for the past 20 years in the mortgage business and never has there been a company that has been more consumer oriented than Microsoft.  Their programs are magnificent.  Their service s unbelievable and the costs low compared to what I have paid for other programs that have not been able to perform.  I believe Microsoft wants services and programs for the consumer that work and continue to get better.

I want the government to leave them alone and let free enterprise that leads to success be successful.  I doubt any of those government officials that are making judgments have near th experience on computers as most grade school chidden and so do not have the expertise to judge Microsoft and what they are doing for the consumers of the world.  

If anyone could be doing it as well, they would be doing it,.  And I do have a choice now, so why do you say I do not.  I can buy something different.  Th  truth is I want Microsoft all the way because I know that they are there when I need them and will stand behind every product and continue to upgrade it and provide that upgrade to me.  The consumer wants service and performance and with Microsoft we have it.  

Please don't let the government mess with that.

A Disturbing Dream in Early Days at Lake Almanor

Certainly being alone in Lake Almanor was a challenge and I had a lot of disturbing dreams which showed the inadequacies I was feeling.  I think this was an interesting dream and Jeanne's interpretation was especially thoughtful and reflected experiences she had had.  We tend to relate to others situations by what is going on in our life and challenges we are having.

I was still working for James doing online work and I had been called as Relief Society President in a Ward I had just moved into in March of 1999.

I had so many disturbing dreams that Maria bought me a Dream Book that interpreted your dreams!!!

Tanner was 5 1/2 When Linda Sent This Poem

 This is such a cute poem, I hope she shows it to show Tanner someday when he is very distinguished!

He is about 5 1/2 when this was sent.

Thoughts from a Mother to a Daughter

I used to have a lot of hang ups about motherhood.  Never felt quite adequate in all I was doing.  This is a pretty typical feeling of most mothers.
