Short term memory glitch - photos found

Isn't it amazing, I'm now wading through a serious amount of pictures from August and that means lots of processing as I shoot RAW unless I pick up a camera that's set to JPEG by mistake. As I file my pictures by shoot date when importing the images to the computer I get folders like 2008-08 and 2008-07 in a 2008 master folder. Just a few days ago I clicked in to the 2008-07 folder instead of the 2008-08 one, and I found some more pictures I hadn't looked at almost since I'd shot them - I told you August was mad. What I found was a real nice selection of shots from my trip to Finland and the colours are also Finnish, blue skies and white sails.

My computer system is also struggling under the photo onslaught. The backup system for my pictures has been upgraded again, a new 500GB drive was called for as a backup to the Netgear ReadyNAS. I'm looking for a new monitor as a thunder fly seems to have crawled in to my monitor and died between the top surface of the screen and the LCD panel beneath. I now have a little black speck on my display always and no amount of photoshop is going to move it. Monitor wise I've been pointed to the Hazro 24inch model by a friend, and now I am struggling to find a way to resist.
