She's Back!

My laptop actually came home on Monday but this has been a pretty busy week. I've wanted to blog so badly all week but just couldn't find the time. Now that it's Friday night and I can slow down a little, I figure I should give you the news.

The FedEx man giggled at me because I was so excited to see him. I danced a little jig and clapped my hands after I opened the front door. I should have asked him if he'd ever gotten that sort of reaction before.

Guess what! I reinstalled my own hard drive! It took a while for me to figure out just exactly *where* it went but I did it! I was a little frightened as you might expect because I don't work on computers, obviously. After I replaced it, I hesitantly switched on the power button and held my breath. There was a part of me that expected it to blow up or screech at me. I'm happy to report all is well and I am thrilled to have it back!

Welcome Home Miss Laptop!

Sniff, Sniff, I Miss My Laptop!

Arrrggghhhhh! %&$*^$$!!!!#!@ I really want my laptop back. It's driving me crazy! I can only check my email in the evenings when the hubby gets home. My mailbox is always full to the max and I can't pay bills or conduct any kind of business during the day! There were so many times this week I actually wanted to blog and couldn't. I have to say I am a bit frightened at how attached I am to it and how much I miss it. Repair Dept. PLEASE send my laptop back!!!!!!!!

Happy Holiday Update and A Little Bummed!

We had a wonderful holiday season! There were sooooo many parties to attend, presents to open and people to spend time with! It was absolutely amazing. Spencer had almost an entire week of vacation time to "use or lose". It was so wonderful for the kids and I to spend so much time with him. He treated us to a holiday light festival, a pizza party and even took us to see The Bee Movie! Cute movie by the way!

It was so nice to be able to see most all of our family. We received some really special gifts this year. Honestly, the best was just being able to share so many laughs with each other and our families. I just felt so incredibly blessed this Christmas, in every way. I have to say sadly, this was the first Christmas I haven't felt completely stressed out. We were also introduced to some really fun new board games. Would You Rather and Wise or Otherwise, are extremely entertaining and I highly recommend them. Wise or Otherwise is a little pricey but worth it. My BIL and SIL found it at a specialty store but you can order it online. We plan to purchase one.

Now for the bummer section of this post. On New Years Eve, I let Brock use my laptop and afterward realized that somehow my power cord prong (the part you insert) was broken, completely busted off and stuck inside the computer. Needless to say he is banned from using Mom's laptop ever again. We're not sure if it's going to be covered under warranty and I can't use my computer at all right now. So sad!
