A brand new week...SOS



Before I rant, I wanted to post a picture of Rob, my son(36), and my great niece, Kaela who is six. Rob has the patience of Job and is so good with little kids. He sat with Kaela and played Cook Mama and a couple of other games with Kaela on her DS for hours, giving the rest of us a chance to chat. Kaela has had the biggest crush on Rob for the past two years and considers him her personal pal at our family gatherings. They are way too funny together!

Now for the rant. Harry, our main computer, froze up on me this morning. I followed the standard procedure for dealing with this and, instead of it reloading, it just keeps recycling through the Windows set up. We've called the cable company twice and are at least able to jury rig Minnie, my laptop, bypassing the router, so I can get on the internet. Rob to the rescue once again but we'll have to wait until Sunday before he can get over. Thanks to son-in-law, Chris, we at least have access to the internet and E won't have to go through Free Cell Withdrawal.

Chris has also been helping put up a retaining wall for us today.

Rant no. 2: the pavers didn't show up!!! We called and it was blah blah blah yadda yadda yadda...tomorrow! We could have all gone swimming yesterday w/o worrying about getting the lanai pavers wet! Argggggggggggggggggggg.

Ok, off my soap box and off for some scrap therapy!
