Diary of a Woman Learning

It's still been a lot of ups and downs around here lately as technology seems to be refusing to work/run reliably. It just wears me out, but I know that these things are certainly not necessities and are just to make our lives easier. As I come to adjust to that fact and also to the fact that what I have works at least part of the time, I try to work around things and just be thankful for the times that they do work. That's tough this late in pregnancy and trying to start homeschooling and praying for funds to pay off bills and so on and so forth...but God has not let us down yet - and I don't believe that He will ! I have another doctor's appointment tomorrow, late in the morning, and I am so very anxious to know if I have dilated any more. I am pretty certain that I have because Baby Girl is so determined to get outta there. I told Hubby the other night that I didn't think she was going to wait for me to dilate or start having contractions - she was about to cr...

I cannot express to you the way that this blog post title sums up the entire year of 2010 so far! Ugh! There have been a couple of redeeming experiences - namely Baby Girl and my gallbladder being done away with, however, for the most part it has been a very tough year. The past few weeks have been some of the hardest, for sure. I expressed in the last post that we had been having computer issues - well, they got even worse. My PC still randomly reboots and my live-in technical support (a.k.a. Hubby :) has tried just about everything. The only thing left is to replace the motherboard and that would cost nearly as much as just replacing the computer altogether. My monitor already freaked out and died on me, so really there is not much left on this computer to keep us up and running. I had been using Hubby's computer in the interim and last week I walked in the office and went to turn on the monitor at his PC and there I saw the "blue screen of death". Really?!? Well, lo a...

After quite a hiatus from my blog, I have returned to update you all on the goings-on. The break was not at all intentional, though, my monitor died and I had very limited computer usage during that time. There is still a possibility that there are some fishy things going on with my computer, but my in-home techie tells me that for now it is safe to use...and it has very recently been "backed up", praise the Lord! :) If it does go out, it will likely not be a cheap fix - Hubby thinks my motherboard is about to crash - and that would mean that I would likely be on the other computer for some time until we could afford to get mine fixed. That would stink. But we do what we have to do, and in the meantime, I'm just glad to be back on here. I'll start with Music Camp: we had a blast! We had about 32 kids come Monday-Thursday morning and then on Thursday night we put on a performance for the entire church and families of the kids. The kids learned a whole musical called ...
