The bitter recap

My laptop died on Friday. It is now in IT at work being rebuilt. Everything is lost and nothing was backed up. Since Brian has two laptops and a desktop he was generous enough to let me borrow a laptop over the weekend. Otherwise I can assure you things might have gotten ugly. I have a strong addiction to needing a laptop near me and I proudly admit to this addiction. I have no desire to change it.

I left work a tad early to take Brae to the doctor's again; this was the second Friday in a row. The good news was his ear infection in his right ear had cleared up, the bad news was his left ear was infected now. The sinus infection had not improved at all.

When Brae and I got home from the appointment we were greeted by hundreds of ants who decided to move in and take over our family room. Brian set traps. Braeden tried to vacuum them up with the dust buster.

I spent the remainder of the 95 degree weekend indoors and in pain. I think I have a pinched nerve perhaps. I refuse to go to a doctor just so they can send me for x-rays and then tell me there is nothing they can do but give me pain meds. No thank you. Well, I am teetering though because last night the pain was so significant I was throwing up. I'll see how today goes.

The good news from our weekend was we watched National Treasure 2 as a family on Saturday night. Brian and Braeden made the delicious popcorn. It was a wonderful movie night.

Today is Monday, the start of a new work week. It is already 83 degrees this morning and will be 99 degrees by afternoon. The heat index should com in at around 105 degrees.

Pardon me while I continue to delude myself into thinking it will have to be a better day.
