Well, I missed my Tuesday blog because my computer went KAPUTT! This has been a long time coming. My computer started acting weird in November and at first I assumed it was the hard drive so I was planning on buying myself a new one. As usual, however, I can never justify spending money on myself when there are bills, kid's clothes, and many other things to pay for, so I never bought one. Now I'm not sure it actually is the hard drive and it would suck to buy one and then not have that be the problem.
The computer has really gone on the fritz the last few days and Kyle and I keep talking about how I really need to back up all my stuff before I lose it all, but of course we haven't got around to it. So now, my computer will turn on, but it can't start up. Kyle is hoping there is still a way he can back up my stuff. There are so many pictures of the kids, music, movies, documents. I know, I know; I'm an idiot for not backing up everything in the first place.
Anyway, because of this I couldn't write my Wednesday blog entry last night. Today I am doing it on Kyle's computer. So, let's see; what did we do yesterday? I went to the coffee shop and read again while Mimi was at Do Jump. Graham stayed home this time. I have SO much to say about the Phish/Juggalo book I am reading, but more about that later.
After Do Jump we picked up Graham and went to Barnes and Noble. My mom recently sent both the kids gift cards so they wanted to use them. I also bought myself two YA books while we were there. We also went to Target because I really want an umbrella for our patio table so we can have shade back there when we want to. Of course with the weather lately it isn't really necessary.
So, after our retail adventures we went swimming at the community center which is always fun. Graham is on hiatus from swim classes because we just couldn't fit them in with his busy summer schedule so I want to go swimming as much as we can so he can practice and not lose his skills. Due to her swimming classes, Mimi is also getting much more comfortable and independent in the water. We are all always exhausted after swimming.
At home I worked out while Graham read and rode his bike and Mimi was so exhausted she fell asleep. This is not good. When she takes a nap too late in the day she really struggles with going to sleep at night. Sure enough she didn't fall asleep last night until 10:30.
Alright, I really, really want to talk about the book I am reading but there is so much to say and I really need to organize the information or I will just be rambling. So, I'm going to stop for now and come back later to finish the blog.
