I think we’re finally up and running when it comes to our computer. Our hard drive is still too small to run Vista but I can’t imagine that’s going to change anytime soon and to some extent we have to figure out when to cut our losses and just buy a new computer!
I’m not sure I realized that Emmy was giving us the peace sign until my parents pointed it out!
Well everyone will be happy to know that we got our new keyboard in Friday and Margot installed it instantly on our laptop.
So, I should have an easier time posting. You wouldn’t believe how hard it is to type without the A, R, and L keys!
Now we are closing the computer each time so that the animals don’t trample over it and take the keys off of our new keyboard.
This weekend has been really worrisome for us.
My parents are in Houston and I stayed glued to the television all Friday night and Saturday morning. I knew the storm was going to hit but you can never tell how much damage since it seems like the media always blows things out of proportion.
This time, however, I’m not sure the media did a great job of coverage. My parents are in Northwest Houston and it seems like much of the coverage was in Galveston.
My parents were hit pretty hard too. Trees were down, the power and phone lines are out, and their whole fence has been knocked down. Not to mention, trees fell on the neighbors cars and the whole neighborhood is in pretty bad shape.
I wish there was more that I could do from here. I missed a call my mom placed last night from my dad’s cell phone. She said they’re doing okay and that they have to keep calls down to a minimum because there’s nowhere to charge the cell phone and my dad is using it for work.
What a mess.
I just hope that they get assistance soon and that they can get electric and phone service back in a timely manner.
Once again I have a broken phone. My LG phone is unable to keep a charge. I will charge it and within 24 hours it’s beeping at me that the battery is going dead.
Verizon has agreed to send me a new one and I should be getting it this afternoon.
Maybe I should just go with Nokia unlocked phones. Nokias have always worked good for me and my first phone worked perfect and I never had problems!
The ongoing antics of two thirty-something *gasp* mamas raising a four-year-old daughter and an eight month old daughter.
