Condolences for our computer

As I mentioned yesterday, our computer at our house has died. We are in the process of obtaining a new one and hopefully we will be up and running on Saturday but as of today, I am lost at home without my PC friend. It all started a while back when we noticed our computer was running really slow. Monkey Boy said that we should to to finallyfast.com because Club Penguin (CP as he calls it) wasn't working how he wanted it. We had a couple of minor issues but nothing big but we decided (after talking to a computer tech) to add an addtional virus protector and it found lots of bad bugs. We got them all cleaned up and it had been working decent since then until yesterday. My hubby was in our room when he heard a pop noise in the computer room. He assumed that it was one of our 4 legged babies who is infamous for knocking stuff off the desk so he went to see what fell now. To his surprise, he found our computer smoking. He sent me a text message and I thought he was kidding but no, it was true. He took it apart and hopefully it is just the power supply which all the signs point too but it could be the nasty mother board has given up. I am hoping for the first because that means I will be able to recover all my pictures (which I always said I would back up but never did).

In the mean time, Monkey Boy is having fits because his friend is on and today the new stuff came out and he cannot get on to see it. Life of luxury for the kids.

Getting Started

I have been reading many of my friends blogs so I thought I would give it a try. I am not sure where to go with it but I am looking forward to getting it set up and will have fun doing it.

I have titled my page for each of my 3 kids because essentially they are my life and focus. I will do a bit on each of them when I can get some pictures added. Our computer at home died today and we are now researching on getting a new one. I am hoping that we did not loose all our pictures from the last couple of years :(

Check back later for another update and hopefully pictures.
