The past few days have been rough for me. A terrible thing happened--my laptop screen is not working!!! Don't laugh. You must remember that I have absolutely no social life, so I spend a lot of time on the computer surfing the web, reading blogs, etc. So you can imagine how frustrating it is to turn on the computer and See that the screen is black... It all started Friday night when my power cord shorted out (the result of children messing with it). The cord made a strange buzzing noise, and moments later my screen went blank. I think that the back light inverter was fried. Actually I can see the screen if I hold a flashlight up to it-- the screen is just incredibly dark. In fact, I am on the laptop right now with a desk lamp shining over the screen so I can see to write... How lame is that? I do have an old desktop, which, fortunately, I just had repaired, but the screen on that one is not working well either (things are fuzzy on that screen), Hopefully, I can find a place to get the part and get the problem fixed soon.
Yesterday was a busy day for the kids. Big A and D had their first soccer game. They seemed to have good time--well Big A had fun. D complained the whole time about being hungry... I have photos of the game, but I can't post them yet because I can't see the screen well enough to see which photo is which!!! Saturday evening, I took the kids to the Circus. I told them I had a surprise for them. They had no idea what it was until we actually got there. They really had a great time! Now Big A wants to be a Circus performer--specifically a Circus acrobat. D wants to ride the Elephants--so does Little A. It was a long, but fun day. I hope to post photos later...
