Bad Tuesday

Have you ever had one of those days when you woke up and knew you should not have gotten out of bed? That was the last two Tuesday mornings. I woke up and just wanted to stay in bed. Last tuesday work was calling me and so at 6:15am I hopped (well not really, more like dragged) my happy(un-happy) self out of my bed. Two steps across the room to my ball and chain ie: desk and computer. Plop myself down and turn on my can't live without technology. Only to have it refuse to log on! What! How can this be happening. It has turned on everyday for three years now with no problems what so ever.







I am not sure how within 7 years this thing called a computer has become a necessity instead of
a luxury, but it is at my house now. Especially seems I work from home and sign in on to this contraption everyday. Frustration does not even come close to describing the feelings I had at that exact moment. And I am sure the air around me was black with the words I had to say at that exact moment. So being the computer dummy I am I call my husband in a panic to see if he has any save the day ideas. He being the computer genuis he is says, nope sounds like your screwed!!





Screwed! That is how I am going to refer to Tuesdays from now on!




So to make this long story short, 2 days no work =2 days no pay = 1 soccer payment short this month. My genuis of a husband had to reload all my programs (bye bye 6 months of pictures and documents I did not back up!) Big THANK YOU to Carrie for saving the day with the cd of work
programs I needed. And finally thursday morning I was back in business to work again.







Whew! That was some major life drama and to top off the whole week my 2 youngest have come down with swimmers ear.





Life just keeps getting better! This tuesday the same feeling, pull the covers over head, do not get up. But nooooo! I do not listen to my self preserving instincts and up I go. Only to have one more great day!




Mid tuesday morning this week my middle child Colton, in a near panic waves to me to come quickly mom! Something has happened! (I love when they use those words in a panic!) So with the quickness of a mom starting to panic I rush to the front room to see the spider cracks going up the very large front plate glass window. SWEET!!! As the lines go further they look just like dollar signs......Next week I am skipping tuesdays all together!
