Weather and Computers

Weather and computers have one thing in common- they are both unpredictable.

Today I woke up expecting to see the sun. Instead I woke up to a blanket of snow covering everything. What is the deal? On Saturday it was well into the 50's and we were working outside. Sunday it was rainy but still warm, and today there is snow. Ah, spring in NY. It will all melt tomorrow, but still, come on! I was enjoying the warm weather.

Our computer unexpectedly died last Thursday so we brought up our old one from the basement and hooked it up to our monitor. The guy fixing our computer needed the keyboard and our mouse, so we're using the old ones. The keyboard feels really weird and the mouse is so slow it hardly works. But at least we have some back-up.

Some of us are feeling under the weather at our house this week. First Anna got sick and then Emily. They're on the mend now which is good, and I didn't get sick which is even better. Yeah for Charcoal! (That's what my mom makes us take when someone is sick, it seems to be working.)

Have a great Monday everyone! (despite the snow)

That is bummer about your comupter. Hope you all recooperate soon!

Ok...back to the questions!!

Do you bring your pillows on trips and how many?

How do you respond to the question 'how does it feel to be (insert recently turned age here)'?

Would you rather rake leaves, shovel snow or mow the grass?

Have you ever chosen to stand instead of sit on the metro and then wobbled all over like a tourist while you were trying to look cool?

When you play games do you like to be the captain, leader, etc. or would you rather be a follower?

Have you ever had an epiphany in the bathroom?

What would your memoir be titled if it was ever written?

Random health question...do y'all take charcoal for tummy-sickness, or any sickness in general?

When someone in the family has a stomach virus then the rest of us take charcoal to prevent anyone else from getting sick. It works great that way!
