Pooped 231/365

Well I got my Student of the Month bulletin board done but I forgot to take a picture...I was WIPED OUT by physical labor by the time I got it situated by these:

370+ laptop computers that will be passed out to all freshmen at Wasson HS soon. I helped unpack, open and assemble a fair amount of them. Ugh...after walking to the school because Jack needed the car as his juvenile delinquent of a son got kicked out again. Do not get me started.

Jack's New Toy 340/365

Jack came screaming into the tech age today. He got an iTouch 4G from the Apple Store on Powers. We almost pulled our hair out trying to figure out how to get music from my computer on it. It's all good...his play list has 127 songs on it and I will be adding all our Cds to this computer over the next couple of weeks.

It's a mini computer, it really is.

Well that was Fun (NOT!) 266/365

*sigh* Finally back online thanks to my most excellent little brother, Shane, who sent me a computer he bought from his friend Cory in Illinois. No thanks to MrTechead here in Colorado Springs, That guy made me so mad I could spit nails. After the run around followed by a lecture like I was Granny-never-been-online-in-my-life I made Jack go with me to retrieve my old computer. It is safely in my  bedroom now awaiting the money to have old hard drive put in this computer (as a slave drive...yeah I know what that is Mr Techead DUH!)

So what did I do in my one month and two day downtime? I read, gardened, knit, and cut a TON of crazy quilt fabric (while listening to Outlander and havin my blood boil ya ken)

I am glad to be back. Now if I can somehow persuade unemployment to actually pay Mr. Jack maybe I can keep the internet turned on.

Moving Forward 265/365

Dropped the computer off to get fixed and also got word my brother, Shane, is sending me one. yay! I wll be computer rich and maybe not in a bind next time disaster strikes.

 Hopefully by this time next week I'll be sharing all my new cool pictures I have taken since the computer failure.

Here's my mother's quilt depicting my kids' birth months

Withdrawls 264/365

My computer is down down down. I am looking at the possibility of having another one built but until then I have to rely on the library and friends. Way to throw a monkey wrench in things life!

Internet Woes :( 256/365

Fighting with either my modem or internet service. If I disappear for a few days that's why

A Close Close Call 188/365

I almost didn't make my post today. My monitor had been trying to go out for about three weeks. Today it succeeded. PANIC! When Jack got home we went out for supper and then shopped for a new one. I can now shoot chickens in space in style.

I sprung for a new keyboard and mouse also. My old keyboard was full of food crumbs, jewelry findings and beads.

Pondering Life 118/365

Today I ponder ....why oh why did I teach my husband how to use email and other applications thus setting myself up for having to share my computer?

Ugh...I'd rather POKE needles in my EYES!

My computer decided to take a dump on me. Please excuse my absence until I can get back.

Quick update...Jack's nephew Kyle is staying with us. Dakota is at Mommy Kim's until the end of the month. I am going to Illinois again with Cheryl Aug 6-11.

Carry on.
