I’m Back! In High Speed, too.

20 Jan

Sorry all for the really long break I’ve taken. You see, I’ve had a series of computer mishaps.

First, my laptop stopped working correctly.

I took it to the computer guy.

It worked fine.

Brought it home.

It wouldn’t work.

Took it back.

It worked fine…..you get the drift here.

Well, their theory was that I vaccuum too much. Yep, you heard it. I am the queen of vaccuuming. I have two kiddos and do it once a day (on good days, well….once every other day).

The nice guy at the computer place said that vaccuums create static electricity which can fry your laptop……I was willing to go with that theory.

It was soon shot down by a tech support guy who I happened to mention it to. So, who knows? All I know is that it won’t work inside the barn anymore.

So I went and bought a new computer. Got it home. It didn’t work.

Took it back.

Got a new one.

Bought the kiddos gummy worms because I felt bad about being a very grouchy mommy.

About an hour later, I found out that they aren’t going to keep putting dial-up modems on computers any more. Like in starting with my new computer.

So, as Cockelbur Junction is located in the middle of nowhere Oklahoma (and we like it that way), we are left with satellite internet. A few hours into it and I have very few complaints against hughesnet. Um, it’s our only option. I’ll post about the one downside tomorrow.

A week later, here I am. I’m back. Cruising along. And loving in.

I’m sure you look forward to more pictures, more posts and all the more surprises to come.

Because it no longer takes me four hours to post something on here.

Okay, now back to going through the five hundred emails that remain in my email.

Gosh, I’ve missed you guys too.

    Hello from SITS ~ You have a cute blog – I have laptop issues too. Two of them that don’t work and one new desktop that I hate. Oh well… That’s funny about the vacuuming.

      Yay! Technology is so much fun, but so tempermental, too. Just like my kids. Or, as they’d probably say, just like me. ;o)

      Have a wonderful weekend, mama!
