Computer Woes = Late Post

When I got downstairs this morning to post, having already booted up the computer hoping to save time, I sat down and saw I didn't have internet connection and needed to restart my computer. This is never good when I'm on a timeline because my computer takes FOREVER to download updates and restart. Of course I immediately texted Maggie that I'd be late, knowing otherwise I'd get a text demanding "What?" "Why?" and "How dare I!" So here I am at school and now you know why I'm late. 

This time next week will be my Friday and I'll be excited (more excited than I am now) about my first trip of the year to PIB! I can't wait. It will be Eva's birthday weekend and she's bringing up a couple friends. They won't get there until after school with Charlie. Maggie,  Jim and I will get up there in the morning and get the place up in preparation for her birthday. Maggie's getting a couple special things for the loft/clubhouse where the girls will be sleeping. I think we'll also bake a cake and I can't wait! 

Yesterday, I bought a box spring for one of the queen sized beds up there. The beds are nice and comfortable but they sit really low to the ground without a box spring and it's weird. The one I bough comes disassembled so it will be delivered here and I'll take it up and put it together next weekend. I want to make sure it's a good one before I buy a second one for the other queen bed. I'm sure it's fine but you never know. 

I took a lovely bike ride yesterday. I hope to again today before the rain hits, of course, over the weekend. That's getting annoying! 

My stupid computer here at school is driving me nuts! Every now and then, my mouse will suddenly and without reason switch from left-click to right-click so when I try to use it and I left-click something it goes all wonky. It usually takes me a minute or two before I realize what's going on which is so annoying. Arg!

Dinner tonight: I'm making jalapeno popper chicken with rice and broccoli or cauliflower...I don't think I have any broccoli. 

And that's about all I've got. Time to prepare myself for the kids...try to put on a happy face. It's getting harder, I'll tell you. Happy Thursday! Later!
