Dear Mom,

   Posted by: Sandra   in Dear Mom

I finally got my desktop computer back, it seems to be working good so far, had a glitch when I first got it where the technical dudes at HP did not finish setting it up before they sent it back, so I had to call HP and spend nearly an hour on the phone sorting that all out and getting it finished.  Now I have been reinstalling programs onto the computer so I can get back to work.

Dad has a blood test tomorrow, check his coumadin levels, but I am uncertain if we’ll make it.  My cell phone’s battery was not charged, and that is the only place I have phone numbers stored, so I was unable to alert the person giving us a ride to it.  ::wince:: Phone is charging and I am calling her as soon as it has enough of a charge on it.

Otherwise, I’m just stressing out.  Trying to keep stuff together and pretty much getting by day to day by telling myself you’re asleep in your bedroom or down in the lower 48 every time I start to loose it.  Bad way to get through the days, but a neccessary evil.  I’ve been watching Prison Break – a TV show – on DVD, sort of a addictive watching of the show.  I’m watching 3 or 4 DVDs, each with 4 eppisodes on it, every night, then rewatching them if I can’t get the next set of DVDs from the rental store.  I need to just go buy the series, maybe for Christmas.  It is a sanity saver for me, the plot being intricate and complex and the characters ones I really really like, so when I can’t sleep at night because trying to leads toward breaking, I sit up and watch Prison Break or something like that on TV until I am too tired to be able to stay awake any longer.  That way I can sleep without having to think before I fall asleep.

I was sitting here trying to think about what all I needed to get done and realized that my taxes need to be to the IRS by the start of October.  ::cringe:: The extension I had got last April is about to expire and I am so not in a mindset to be working on taxes.  Where the heck did that copy of Turbo Tax I got go?  When my computer malfunctioned on earlier this month and I had to reset it to factory standards, I lost the copy of Turbo Tax that was installed on it – now I need to find the original program so I can access the work I had already for finished on my taxes.

I soooo do not want to have to restart that all from the beginning.  Particularly not when it has to be finished within the next few days.  :::wince:::

I’m so going to fail getting those back in time.  Tonight and tomorrow will be spent working on my taxes, getting everything I can done.

I love you, Mom
Sandra
