The 'Pewtah'

I've spent the last few days making a start on transferring all our old VHS home movies to my hardrive using Pinnacle 12, which after editing in Windows Moviemaker, I will then burn onto discs using Nero 7. I estimate I should be finished sometime within the next six years....
Why not do it all on Pinnacle? Because I get sound but no image in the editing window. Why not just use Nero 7? Because I can only transfer audio from the VHS, hence I'm resorting to using all three. I'd prefer not to, but I'm no Bill Gates, so it'll have to do.

The fire walk

Well, not really, but it was tense all the same. Short version...it wasn't cancer as the doctor first thought, but a blood clotting deficiency instead. Months of waiting, weeks of tests and hospital visits, but the outcome is that Karen is fine. Completely unavoidable, but I wouldn't want her to go through it twice. We were both nervous wrecks for some time....
