Computer problems!!



Yea for Patty!! She was in the top 100 fundraisers for the Race for the Cure. She attended their celebration dinner the other night in Columbus. Unfortunately the "guy" who always comes out of nowhere at the last minute to beat her out of #1 spot did it again so she was officially #2 but that is still terrific. Congratulations Patty!Great pic by the way.

It has been awhile since I posted. Computer problems here at home. About a week ago, we started getting knocked off at random. Both Pat's desktop and my laptop were experiencing the same problem. We fiddled with it and got either the desktop or the laptop to work but not both at the same time. GRRRRR~frustration soon set in. Called Time Warner and our connection was fine so it had to be on our end. So off to Wally World we went to get a new router thinking that had to be the problem. NOT! So after a day of trying most everything, we thought the 10 yr. old modum might not be compatible with the now new router so off we went to Wally again to get a new modum. Pat installed that and again...no go!! He worked so hard for hours trying to get things to work. After talking to some tech support for nearly 2 hours they concluded that his desktop was not working properly and he thinks during a recent Microsoft update some files were lost. We finally got the desktop working but not the laptop so we decided to share the desktop for the time being. Pat had been wanting to purchase a new desktop but was waiting til fall when the new Mac operating system comes out. (He is fed up with PC and going back to MAC) Well now he will HAVE to get a new machine so we can get back to being a two computer household.I can't do much crafting without my laptop working but I will survive a few more weeks...lol

Jeremy goes to Port St. Lucie tomorrow to take his final checkpoint on Mon. and Tues. He has worked hard to get this far in his career. Taken a while but he is near the end now. Wishing him good luck! Love you Jeremy and miss you sooo much!!
