FUBAR
Ok. Back at school once again. Looks like this semester is going to be a lot harder than last semester. Harder classes, harder teachers, Much longer days, at least on Thursdays. Oh well, this is what I wanted.
Tom has been dizzy for 2 days now, and thus has missed 2 days of work. Never a good thing.
Computer is FUBAR again! Now not only do I have to do all my work on the computers at school because that one doesn't have Word, but we may not have that one at all! Looks like we need a new one, if we can figure out how to afford it. Plus one of my professors insists that everything turned in be typed, so looks like I will be spending a lot of time at the library. I have no clue how I am going to do that! Ah well, such are the joys of computer ownership.
James won't stay in his own damn bed. Every night once Tom and I have gone to bed, here comes James. And he's so quiet that you don't hear him coming in time to head him off. I put him back to bed twice last night before I said fuck it and let him sleep with us. By that time it was 3. Such are the joys of parenthood.
Well I called Ade and told her I needed the money, so I will be calling her again later tonight with the amount, she'll overnight it to me tomorrow. So mortgage will be paid Saturday or Monday. What a relief. I need to sit down again and come up with a budget to make sure all bills get paid on time, so we know how much money we have and where it's going. Put that at the top of the 'To Do' list.
I am going to head home to see my rugrats before bed, cause I know Ellie hasn't gotten the boys in bed yet. But at least I have internet access at school. Maybe Tom can figure out the problem when he feels better.

Ouch, Puter probs.
I can help a bit though, hun. You can download OpenOffice, which is all the office programs you need. Compatible with Word. Go to OpenOffice.org and check it out when you can get yours up and running.
There's also a thread in the Computers & Networking section of the Box about it, if you have any questions.
Love ya! And give Tom a hug and squeeze for me, ok? hehe
