Bad News Bears.

Aug 2009

A cup of water was spilled on my laptop today. I will not go into details, as I know the person responsible feels horribly, but needless to say it is a sucky thing. I am typing now on an old computer we have that runs ridiculously slowly, it is also sits on a desk and I usually prefer to do my blogging sitting on the couch watching bad reality TV. I will try to make this blog interesting none the less.

It is amazing to me how attached I am to my laptop. Everything I need is on it, my address book, my pictures, email, calendar (which I never use), tons of documents and lists. What did I do before I had a laptop? And a bigger question, what did we do before we had the internet?

My parents just got high-speed internet last month and they love it. Atleast, we think they do. No one has actually heard from them since that day, but I do get occasional notices on Facebook that my Mom has harvested her crops in Farmville, so I assume they are okay. Mom and Dad, if you are reading this, we love you and we will talk to you again once the excitement wears off.

When my Mom first got an email address at work she started forwarding me every single one of those chain emails people usually delete. You know, the ones that say “Forward this email to 9 friends or your dog will bite you” or something along those lines. Only, my Mom did not have nine friends that had email, so she just forwarded me the email 9 different times. Needless to say, she is yet to get bit by a dog.

Now, just because I usually use this blog to vent about a lot of things that have me stressed, tonight I have 5 things for you that I am Happy about!

#1-My daycare has the perfect number of kids that allow me to make enough money and still be able to transport Zane to and from School and Gymnastics! They also all get along and are around the same age and Super Fun! Yeah!!

#2-One of my dear friends is getting married next weekend and I found a dress that does not make me look like a huge beached whale!! YEAH! Plus, I get to go to Lockwood for the wedding and see my Family, including my wonderful Sister! Double Yeah!

#3-Rocky will be here in 12 weeks!!! Triple YEAH! Zane and I made a calendar to count down the days, 82 and counting…

#4-I don’t have anything to do this weekend except relax! Yeah!

#5-Zane’s new teacher told me today that he is Wonderful and she loves having him in her class! I know she probably says that to everyone, but it made me smile! Yeah for Zane! (who also did a headstand for over 2 minutes today, but I made him stop, that cannot be good for his brain..)

Lots of Happiness here, even with a wet laptop!

Hey there Heather Mae! Melissa told me about your blog so I checked it out this morning - hilarious! Great job - it's making me excited/nervous to have kids! Anyway, it's great to hear what you're up to... I noticed on your blog today that you're coming home next weekend for a wedding... Would that be Jon & Sarah's at the Mission? We are going to that one, and thought it would be too much of a coincidence! Sorry for the novel! Glad you are doing well! Love Paula

Thanks, I always get a good chuckle when I read heymae. Of course Zane's teacher thinks he is wonderful, he is and she must not be a dummy. Good luck with your laptop, maybe if you stick it in rice!! Chelsea's phone actually started working again way after she got a new one and that was a dunk in the river.
