And she's back...

I’m back! Ok, I was never gone but I’m back at my machine finally. I just reconfigured some settings and….alright, I’m lying. I imported tier 3 tech support from Indiana. Talked FunkyB into making the long drive here to fix my shit. Since he was in the fixing shit mood, he reformatted Sky’s PC too…Sky is not happy about this whole losing-his-spyware-ridden-games crap but he’s dealing.

Mine was reformatted whether I liked it or not…it was just easier that way. He also accidentally wiped my other drive too but it’s probably no biggie. So I am working with a clean slate now and using different browsers and such. It will be awhile before I have some stuff set up again but I will make do. The most important thing is that I am able to pull an IP again and use the internet…my PC was useless without that “minor” feature.

I don’t think he was here more than 30 minutes before he talked me into Karaoke. After all, it is the one true way of finding Freyja in the house. We also played some Mario Party 6, which was great until Sky dropped out. We switched his character to a computer player and it kicked our asses…thanks Skylar.

Saturday Tami had a party for Skylar so he got to play with the kids and open real presents (he wasn’t happy with a bike and pool, not wrapped). Sunday Mary Jo had a birthday party for a neighbor kid at her sister’s house…with an in-ground pool! Sweet. It was great. Sky has gotten more adventurous in the water this year. He kind of scared me because he’d just jump in with no water wings on and was constantly underwater. This is new. Usually he is super afraid of jumping in or anyone touching him in the water. Friday at the lake, he was letting Mau throw him in the water. I need to get him in some lessons somewhere…I was going to up the street from the old house but we moved.

Since I have checked a problem off my list and enjoyed a weekend of free fun, I feel a little better…slightly less stressed at least and my heart thanks me and everyone involved.
