Catching Up

Yesterday I got up with the thought that I would start catching up on the things I had been putting off for so long. But first my husband came to me and said the computer was down...could I take a look at it. Windows wouldn't load and all we had was a black screen with bad news on it. After about 1 1/2 hours of poking and prodding and rebooting I finally got Windows to load. Not the way I wanted to start my day of catching up. By now I'm quite agitated and need to take a break (of course lol).

My next thing to do was pre-register our bookings for the cruise we are taking...the family Christmas present this year. The 1st booking went through fine, printed out the fun pass and on to the next. The next one was for the kids. Couldn't get the computer to accept them no matter what. So I emailed my sister and she said this was a common problem they had too. So I called the Cruise lines and they "fixed" it for me so I could finish. OK, that's done.

I was also going to call the insurance company and try and figure out the changes they are making to our policy but wasn't up to it by this time. Was going to do that this morning but was confronted with another problem. Yes, the computer again.

Last night at 10:30 the digital TV, phones and our computer all stopped working. This has happened about 6 times in the past month. Everything goes out at 10:30 and comes back on the next morning at about 10:00. Of course at 10:30 I'm starting to relax and watch TV and catch up on my you tube, my space, facebook etc. Doesn't look like that was going to happen so I went to bed and was hoping it would be working when I woke up this morning. Well, it didn't but it was only 7:30. I called Time Warner and told them the problem so they are having someone come out today and check it out. I laid down until 10:00 and got back up to check things out and sure enough everything is working again. I don't know what goes on between 10:30 pm and 10:00 am that makes everything quit working. Hopefully the technician will figure it out today.

So anyway, don't know if I'm going to fight the insurance company today or not. But besides that I have about 6 months of paperwork to catch up for my husbands business (don't tell him lol). Since it's the end of the year I need to put it in high gear and get these numbers caught up. I will continue to work on that today.

Besides all that I have a million things going through my head of what I need to do. Thinking of what we need to pack for the cruise. Wondering if I can take my pillow lol. I can only sleep on my pillow, I might have to settle on taking the pillow case and hope that will be good enough. I need to go to the grocery store but I really hate to do that. I like Melissa to go with me but she's been too busy lately so I'm on my own.

Today it looks like I'll be working on paperwork since I have to be here for the cable man. What a fun day...I'm sure I'll get sidetracked along the way somewhere!
