funny day

Today has been a really funny day.

I started the day with a bang when I headed downstairs to look for a loaf of bread in the downstairs freezer.

As soon I was out the back door it slammed shut and locked behind me.

I usually wear clothes with pockets and have keys in those pockets but very few of my maternity clothes have pockets.

I was stuck outside with no keys and uni and kt were both fast asleep. I tried using our intercom ... no luck.

Then I banged on the backdoor several times, yelled from the kitchen window and the downstairs window.

Uni heard me and tried to find me, but because I kept moving from place to place I didn't know he was looking for me and he didn't know where I was.

Finally he found me and after 9 minutes of frantic activity I was safely back in the house again ... reunited with breakfast, family and of course the toilet! LOL!!

We went furniture hunting this afternoon and now are the proud new owners of another filing cabinet, a small laptop sized desk for me for upstairs, an have on order a combination bookcase/toy box for baby as well as a lovely new chest of drawers.

They will be delivered on Monday.

We also picked up our printer from where it was being fixed under warranty, it works really well now but I can't close the scanner part properly and I think they damaged it while they were fixing it so I am not very happy.

I will get uni to have a look at it as he is much more patient,firm but still gentle with things that have moving parts and he may be able to coax things back into the right position for me.

At this stage though it does seem to work and I can even send a print command from my laptop upstairs to the printer downstairs!

I feel very technological!!!

Hmmmm thank you for the advice Aunty Izzy about the touch pad ... I think you are absolutely right that was the cause of my problems.

Luckily I can disable it and just use the keyboard at times when I want to type in my blog or type emails.

There is suddenly a lot to do again but I can't start straight away ... filling the filing cabinet, getting my new desk organized, filling the bookcase/toy box and chest of drawers.

In the meantime I will concentrate on figuring out how to use the two computers and what can and cannot be shared between them.

I also need to choose a new pair of glasses which is of course something I have been putting off as I do every year.
