No Computer? AHHHH!

About 2 weeks ago, my computer turned off and refused to turn back on.  Not good!  I was just about to post preschool graduation certificates and pictures. Now they are lost in the giant paperweight in my dining room. Ugh! That isn't even the worst part. I go to school online only.  With all the drama in my life I have failed my last 2 terms, and now if I don't participate before this Saturday I will be kicked out of school. Not good!  I have divorce papers that I need to sign, scan, and email back to my lawyer.  I haven't been able to do that either.  I have a claim in for my roof to be fixed with he insurance company. I couldn't even access that, and I was foolish enough to sign up for all e-documents with them. I have been totally lost without a working computer that will connect to the internet.  At least I have facebook on my phone (funny to think I had it shut down until a few months ago, and now I would be lost without it).  I never realized how much I rely on the computer, especially the internet, for day to day activities.
Today, I thought of a solution to my woes. My ex-husband has a laptop that he rarely uses. We are on decent terms right now. He knows my situation, and has even tried to fix my gimpy computer.  I sent him a text and nicely asked if I could borrow his laptop until I can get mine working.  He agreed. (Thank goodness!)  It is good to know that in a pinch if he has a way to help me, he still will.
Now, I am able to do the things I desperately need to do and the things I would like to do (thanks to a man that I have a better relationship with now that we are no longer married).

Celine Dion - Goodbye's (The Saddest Word)

Getting past Mother's Day is difficult for me. I miss my mom. I think I listened to this song at least 10 times in the car on Sunday.

The Cutest Dog in First Grade

Sean is a dog for his first/second grade play (I will post pics of the play if I can take any decent ones after it is done). To make his costume, I just cut out spots with regular paper and taped them to my brother's old t-shirt. (Yes, I know Anthony has been gone for a while. I don't know why I still had this shirt.) The ears were stapled to one of my headbands. He did most of the coloring (white is just too boring).  I love this boy!

Eric and Sean About Thor

This morning Sean was telling me that next Halloween he wants to be Thor. I explained to him that as long as I could make it, that was fine with me (heck he'll change his mind several times between now and then anyway).  He told me that he would need two metal plates on his chest. Eric asked him what he was talking about. Their conversation proceeded like this:

Eric: "If you have metal there that would make you a woman."
Sean: "No, it wouldn't."
Eric:"Yes, because only women need to cover up there."
Sean:"Well, Thor isn't a woman, but he is a hippy."
