Lazy Afternoon

Remember when my computer died shortly before Christmas?  Well, I don't know all the computer jargon, but apparently the only way to salvage it was to wipe it clean and start over with a non-Windows operating system.  Craig has been trying for years to switch over to Linux, because that's what all the computer geeks use, and he's a computer geek wannabe.  I have always protested, but apparently I'm stuck with it for now. (I think maybe he saw this as an a opportunity, and might be exaggerating about the "necessity" of it.)

So far, what that means is that a) I can't print coupons, and b) I can't use Windows Live Writer.  Blogger has improved their photo uploading procedure since I first started blogging, but I still prefer WLW.  A lot.  You should check it out if you haven't already.

Today is the last day of Christmas break for the kids.  Everything is back to normal tomorrow, although Firstborn has a sore throat, and hopefully I'm not in for a week of sick kids at home. This afternoon Pinkerbelle and I are going to watch the American Girl Samantha movie I got at the library.  She doesn't very often get to watch purely girly shows, because movie night must appeal to all the kids.  I'm making an exception today and the boys can either like it or lump it.

I'm off to snuggle with my girl!
