Oh the frustration of it all!




I got a new and very nice computer several weeks back, you might remember I was very happy about it. Seeing as I was in desperate need...my other would die 5-10 times a day. The bad part comes in when you try and copy and transfer everything over. What a pain. It was pretty much done right away, except the Microsoft Money part. We finally got a new version loaded and everything last night, should be fine, right? Until I go and try to backup the file from the other computer and load it on. Some other persons junk came up -not mine. Don't get me wrong...I'd rather have this persons info. In fact it is so good, I'm thinking it can't be real. This person has deposits of $2000 coming in every few days. Nice. I have deleted and tried to reinstall, but something is up. This is now out of my league, and before I do something terrible...I'll just wait for Scott to come home tonight. Today is my day off from the gym so I had the time to get everything all organized too, bummer. I'll just have to go pay bills and hope for the best :).


We got the house picked up AND vacuumed this morning. I can't believe it. It's always amazing what CAN happen when you stay home to do it.


Hunter is off to the skate park with a few friends. He hasn't wanted a skate board, but that might change soon. He goes and does his scooter. He said it's lots easier on the scooter and he can do some fun tricks.



Hannah's big news of the morning...she has 12 pairs of earrings now. Katie, her neighbor friend, just brought over a new pair. Good times!


Hayden is in watching one of the Harry Potter movies. He cracks me up the way he'll watch a movie. We have a little DVD player, and he will fast forward to a "good part". He can watch the whole thing in 20 minutes. So, when he says he wants to "watch a movie" I know it's not for long.


Well, I'm off to go and try and fix my Microsoft Money issue. I just can't leave well enough alone.

good luck with that! i hate computer issues, too. chris has to take care of it for me. why is it when you have the time and inclination to get something done (like pay the bills) that things don't work out. i was all set to vacuum yesterday and my vacuum has no suction. chris didn't get home until 9:30 last night, so it didn't get fixed. grrr. how old was hannah when you let her get her ears pierced? maya is already begging me. i told her when she was 5 she could, but now that's seeming sort of young...?

Natalie, I let Hannah get her ears pierced when she turned 8. My parents made us wait until we were 12! I thought that was too old, and 8 seemed like a good age. She was old enough to take care of them all by herself. AT least I was able to get the bills paid. Where is Scott when I need him? :)

Computers are wonderful when they work but can cause so much frustration, too. I don't venture out of my comfort zone too often. I am going to try to do the Family History research that they need people to do in this month's Ensign. Michael assures me I can do it.

I'm loving the earrings. She is a girl there is no doubt about that.

I like when Hayden is watching a movie on the TV and a scary part comes on and he runs out of the room over by the stairs. With his DVD player he does a lot of fast forwarding and I feel like I get a Reader's Digest version of the movie. Most of the time I have seen it at least 10 times so that is just fine. He likes hs DVDs and videos.

I'm so sorry about the computer and I am zero help in that department! Your kids are so cute. I wish I was more like you, what with all the cleaning and the vacuuming...I'm trying :)
