Ok, that was stressful! I decided that before I wrote a post this morning, I would real quick upgrade my blogging platform (WordPress) to it’s new version. Well, as soon as I did, it locked me out of my backside of my blog, which mean I could do anything with it! I was so frustrated all day, but I finally got my answer tonight. And now I am too tired to write anything. I will say this though, if you get locked out of your admin page on WordPress, clear your cache (or history). Worked for me!
I have a few posts planned for next week, including a review of the movie “Bride Wars”, some thoughts on being a good help meet, and a few other things that have been rambling around in my head for 2 weeks.
Aren’t you excited?!?! ( I am, that my site is working again!)
Well, today is the last day of my kiddos being gone. Oh right, I haven’t been blogging. The kiddos have been on “vacation” with their Grandmother. She took them to the Zoo and to MOSI, they’ve been gone since Monday! It’s been a bit odd, but the Lord has been using this time to teach me more about how to be a good wife (more on that later). The kiddos sound like they are having a wonderful time, and they really don’t want to come home. Which makes me sad, they are getting old enough not to need me so much….oh well.
For right now, Mr. OverKill is letting me use the laptop at the house, since we were able to patch together our 2 broken desktops into one working machine for the shop. I am not 100% comfortable with him giving me this laptop, and for right now, I am still considering it his, on loan to me. I didn’t want him to spend money on a computer for me right now…but he is a good husband and knows I do need a computer for some of our school things. And now I am rambling again.
Well, I have a long “to do” list today before the kiddos come home. I am going in a bit to meet my Mom for breakfast and I am going to attempt to help her with some design issues for the pregnancy care center. The first day that the kiddos were gone I washed ALL of their dirty clothes and have about 6 piles of laundry (there’s, mine, and ours) to fold. I really want to go through the clothes and get rid of a few things that they have outgrown, out-stained, or out-worn. I would also like to get the house cleaned up. Plus, a good friend is in town and all the “old gang” is getting together.
I am thinking I might like to just stay in bed…but no.
So, Mr. OverKill bought a new laptop for use at our shop. His computer also died. Hmmm.. five-year old Dell’s dying everywhere (AwesoMom’s died too!).
I was saying, Mr. OK has a new laptop (on which I am typing now). I really like it and I hope it works well for him. He is going to attempt to use the pieces from my old desktop and his old desktop and make one working desktop for me. Until we can afford this….
Should only take about 5 years of baking bread and doing evaluations…right?
and I am wide awake. I was planning to get up at 5:00, but a little while ago our dog started barking, and wouldn’t stop. So, I got up to see what what wrong. Our neighbor had an ambulance sitting in front of her house. I hope all is well…
Anywho, I figured since I had [...]
Well, Mr. OverKill confirmed it, my computer is dead. Lightening hit the motherboard, and since it is such an old computer he doesn’t think it’s worth putting more money into. On the up side, my hard drive is fine. It’s actually sitting here keeping me company. So, I am waiting to see what we will [...]
So, Tuesday night my good computer was struck by lightening (through the modem). Last night, my back-up laptop decided it didn’t want to work any more either. So, posting will be nearly impossible for a few days. Thanks to my good friend, Mrs. Doodle Bop for letting borrow her computer for a few minutes this [...]
This week is Vacation Bible School at our church. Somehow, last year I got roped into being the “on stage” person. That means that I get to get up on the stage (they even give me a microphone), act goofy and try to get the kids excited about VBS. This year we are doing Crocodile [...]
A few weeks ago I mentioned that we went fishing for the May birthdays. Well, believe it or not, The Frazzled Mama forgot to bring her camera! Shocking, I know! So, I have been patiently waiting to get pictures from my friend Mo, who went with us. Sadly, her internet has been down quite a [...]
I have had this taped to my fridge for at least 2 years now. It got moved to the side of the fridge a while back, but I saw it this morning and thought I would share it with you. I believe it came from Beautiful in God’s Eyes, by Elizabeth George (but don’t quote [...]
Therefor humble yourselves under the might hand of God, that He may exalt you in due time, casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you. Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. Resist him, steadfast in the faith, knowing that the same sufferings are experienced by your brotherhood in the world. But may the God of all grace, who called us to His eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after you have suffered a while, perfect, establish, strengthen, and settle you. To Him be the glory and the dominion forever and ever. Amen.
