I forgot today was Monday. Adam had the day off because of Presidents Day and even though the kids had school, the stuff I always do on Monday, I couldn't get done because the bank and post office were closed. Gosh, it drives me crazy. So ... looks like my Mantra of "I'll do it Monday", turned into I'll do it Tuesday ....
So this weekend was kinda ho hum, all seemed to be oddly quiet around here, and not too many people were around. My page seemed to be acting all weird, I was thinking it was just me, but am now noticing that maybe it isn't as a few others have mentioned it as well. Our Valentines Day was really nice, we don't usually celebrate it, but Adam went out of his way to make it nice this year. (pictures soon)
I was REALLLLLLY looking forward to the race this last weekend tho. Yayyy for that being back on - atleast I think. For those that know me - ya'll know I was dying without it being on every weekend. The race ticked me off yesterday though. Rain Delay my butt. I swear someone in Nascar needs to be kicked in the head.. what is wrong with these idiots anymore ?! Matt Kenseth "won" but not because he deserved it, only because of some "rain .. that wasn't even there !
Like I said ... I had some photos I wanted to share .. BUT .. SIGH .. I can't. Why ??? You ask ?! SIGH .... Adam has given my laptop a virus. Bad news. It won't let me do anything. Good thing I had everything saved this time but I am still mad. Seems as though he got a virus attached to a song from iTunes or something. I know nothing about computers, so he will have to look into fixing it, he can figure it out. I did try to do a system restore though, but it won't let me. Whatever. GRRRR !
This of course makes me want to give him what is now "my" laptop and get ME a new one ! I want that little paper thin one, it looks cool and has a touch screen and I can take on the road with me when we go on vacations. Yea, I know that might not be happening for a while as it used to, but ... that's ok. We finally got word on the tax return and let's just say I was shocked ! What we are getting back is such a pleasant suprise and will cover everything it was intended to and we will still have some left. :O) WOOO HOOO !
We went over to that other house today and some kids broke in AGAIN and stole a few things and wrote graffitti like stuff all on the windows.. again. We called the cops and they tooks pics and wrote a report. They think the high schoolers are doing it during lunches and have had alot of people complaining about things like this. Seems to me they should stop letting the high schoolers out for lunch, if you ask me.
This reminds me, I STILL cannot get a hold of our Landlord... he was supposed to be here JANUARY 21st .. and never showed up. He still hasn't been over. I am worried. Here it is February 16th today and he still hasn't been by to get last months rent or this months rent. I drove by his house and no one is there ... What the hec?!
The teacher thing the other day at the school ended up being cleared today .. the teacher appologized to Brittany over the loud speaker and admitted she was wrong. I was so suprised that Adam did not lose his temper that day, because he does have anger issues. But that is exactly why he said he had to leave. I was glad that they had the teacher appologize to her publically. Had it been me that day, I don't think I would have been so nice. Guess God had his reasons for sending Adam in that day .. it would have normally been me.
Ah well .. I got some things to do around here, Adam and Jordan are back at the other house still cleaning it. We are going to ask the LL about painting if we can ever get a hold of him, this will help with money here, which is nice to have.
So hope ya'll have a good rest of the day. I will be around, but looks like on one of the kids computers till I can get mine figured out. SIGH.
TAMMIE
first off...YAY for the great tax return! WHOOT! Might be getting that new laptop after all, huh? hehehehe
ReplyDeleteSecondly, I'm glad that Brit's teacher apologized, and over the loudspeaker no less. That is a pleasant surprise! You, know, when you blogged about it before I was thinking how amazing it was that Adam did NOT lose his temper. Maybe he's making some progress? Good news!
That is SO odd about the landlord! I hope everything is ok with him.
and the school kids? They can leave for lunch??? That is the stupidest thing ever. I'm telling you! Kids are way too immature for that!
Hooray for getting money back.
ReplyDeleteI went to the Post Office, got out of my car package in hand.....walked in and was stunned to find it closed...LOL I totally spaced off President's Day!! I did not feel so bad when 3 others did the same thing while I was there!!
ReplyDeleteI love NASCAR!! Go JR!!!
So, what did you get for Valentines Day?
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the computer:( I can't figure them out either.
I'm glad the teacher appologized:)
Sorry to hear about your computer virus. Hope you get it fixed soon.
ReplyDeleteThat's great about your tax refund. We haven't gotten ours done yet.
That's strange about the landlord. Hope everything is ok with him.
Have a great night!
Ugh on the comptuer virus! Oh I saw the pictures in your blog about Valentines but haven't had a chance to read it but heading there next!! Oh that is awesome about your taxes! YEAH!!! Oh I am sorry to hear you can't seem to get a hold of the landlord. I sure hope all is okay. Let us know when you find out something!! OH I hated that the banks and post office was closed today too! I couldn't do half the stuff I wanted today either. Yikes!! Hugs to you!!
ReplyDeleteIs your landlord snowbirding? That is really odd.
ReplyDeleteI am so glad the teacher apologized like that. I wonder what in the world got into her to act that way.
Good luck on your computer repairs. I don't think we realize how much we use them, until they aren't working>
I'm not a fan of winning races on rain delays but then again. I did see that the weather bands were pretty bad for that area. I"m beginning to think they have taken racing out of NASCAR!
Are you talking about the house you guys had to move out of is being vandalized by kids?
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your Tax Return! We still need to get ours done..should get a decent amount back for a change now that we got the house. That's really weird about your LL! It's like he fell off the face of the earth. Oh and Congrats on the Brittany Apology..that's cool that she had to do it over the loud speaker!..Hehehe! Don't feel bad..I didn't get much done yesturday either..need to get my butt in high gear today!..lol
ReplyDeleteOh - no, no, no ... we are cleaning a house that our LL owns for him.
