Ok, wow……Harold will be heading to see his folks next week. It is a spur of the moment thing.
He had ordered his mom a new dell a few months ago since her old pc had so many issues. Well, we didn’t think and when he ordered it, it came with Vista….oops. His mom doesn’t know and we don’t know it at all to help her. She hasn’t been able to get the printer to work and of course, telephone customer service isn’t all that great in general.
I hate the fact that she has this pc and printer and isn’t able to use it for what she needs. We wanted it make it easier for her to stay in contact with family and print out pictures, not harder and more frustrating.
Then I feel bad about my work schedule……I just don’t have the time off for us to head up there to visit and we haven’t seen them in about 5yrs. We were planning on heading up there in Feb., but Harold broke his foot and had to have surgery. =( I really don’t like not seeing immediate family for that long and the fact that Harold hasn’t seen his own folks in that time……icks. So I suggested to Harold about flying out in the next 2 weeks to see them before he heads to Portland and I on to Indiana for the wedding.
What I’m not going to miss by not going up there is to see Harold get frustrated when trying to get everything hooked up and dealing with dell………grin At least his folks knows how his mouth can get…….lol Plus, he will not be happy dealing with Minnesota cold…….lol
I’m happy that he is going to see his folks, since it has been a long time. I just wish I was able to go and we’ve been able to do it sooner.
Speaking of family, I’m so looking forward to visiting with mine at the end of the month. =) I fly in on Thursday and on Friday, my sister and I are going to take a road trip and visit 2 of our great aunts (Mary & Evelyn). They are in their 80s & 90s and some of the very few family member left in our grandparents generation. I would like to spend some time with them since there isn’t much left. Saturday I’m heading to Purdue (thank god, the Grand Prix crowd is the weekend before) so I can get some shirts and other Purdue things. Then off to Jessie & Chris’ wedding. Sunday, it is all about spending that day at my folks with my sister, nieces & nephew. I can’t wait, I’m going to be running everywhere, I just hope I remember how to get to my locations….I have a horrible memory when it is hasn’t been used in awhile.
Rats, time to get ready for work…..at least I have Sopranos afterwards tonight………..grin
