Aretha Franklin :'Pride a Deeper Love' (C&C Tribesman Mix)

Hmmm...  Where to start?  lol!  I guess going back a few weeks is a good place to start?  :o) 

 

O.K.  I guess I will start there.  Seems my computer had an issue a while back and we had to send it in to be fixed.  They kept it for about a week.  I finally got it back a couple of Tuesdays ago, thinking it was fixed.  I was happy to get it back in a week.  Needless to say being happy didn't last long when I found out that it wasn't fixed properly.  I spent about 4 days on the phone with different people from the computer company trying to fix it.  I finally got someone who seemed to know what the problem was, and walked me through what we thought was a fix.  Well, as you can guess, it didn't work, and I ended up having to send the computer back yet again-for another week! 

 

I must say though, this time when I got it back, I was surprised to get a call from the Tech Supervisor that tried so hard to help me before I sent it back.  He called and said:  "I received notification that you received your computer back today".  I was surprised to get THAT call!  I mean, how many companies, have tech people, that want to be notified when a customer gets their computer back?  He called to walk me through setting it up again, and getting the necessary download I needed to keep it from messing up again.  Seems there was an issue with the USB port or something that connected my printer to the computer.  When we hooked up the printer, it caused a malefunction in the computer.

Anyway... He walked me through the entire set up procedures.  Every little thing that needed to be done, he helped me with.  He just sat quietly on the other end while everything loaded, just to make sure there were no problems.  I was extremely thankful for the help.  I just couldn't believe that there was a company or a person, that still cared to help out a customer to that extent.  He even waited when everything was loaded, the computer was restarted again, just to make sure everything was alright.  He also told me that if I ever had any trouble with this computer again, just to call him.  I have his direct line, and I don't have to go through the explaination over and over again with other tech people.  THAT makes fixing any problem alot quicker.  I think I will buy this brand of computer again if the tech people are this helpful in the future.

Of course, the computer issue was only 1 thing that was going on while I was away.  A few different things also went on around here.  (I know, no surprise there...lol).  I don't think I have too many updates with just one issue written on it?  Hmmm...  Methinks I will have to go back and check that for accuracy though.  I guess I could have typed an entry with only 1 update...lol

Anyway...  During this time, my youngest decided to follow in her big sisters footsteps, and break a bone.  This one however, broke an ankle, not a wrist.  She decided she wanted to try and jump over bushes--at night--with very little outside lighting.  She was having fun with some other kids until she fell on her ankle wrong.  She ended up having a fracture almost within her growth plate, and will be in a cast for 5 more weeks.  (Six weeks total).  After that, she gets to go through physical therapy to help build it back up.

 

Another one upset about missing some of a volleyball season.  I think she was so upset because try-outs are the 8th, 9th & 10th of this month.  She was afraid she wouldn't get on a team for this fall season.  I assured her that the coach has already seen her play, and will put her on a team.  She just has to show up for try-outs and just sit and watch.  She tried to be strong at the doc office when he told her no volleyball for a while.  She sat quietly, but I seen tears roll down her cheeks.  No noise, just tears.  I felt so bad for her.  My eyes welled up just looking at the poor baby.  I kept my composure though.  One of us had to pay attention to the instructions from the doctor.

Oh well...  I think I am just about out of room for this entry, and will have to write another one later on today, or another day.  I have to get myself showered and to the store for some more milk.  Seems we went through more than usual this week...lol!  Besides, being without the computer for a while, has my oldest going through online withdrawal.  Heehee!  :o)

Take care and have a most wonderful day!  Love and light and blessings most bright, this day and everyday to you and yours!
