What else can happen?

I know I promised the other day that I would post more often. But, something terrible has happened. My computer monitor is dying, poor thing. I know you can read this, but my view is grey with lots of dark grey streaks. I can actually hear my computer gasping its last breaths.

As a result of this tragedy, I asked husband to go online yesterday to order a new monitor. My computer is so old that there's nothing available for this model computer except a really cheap monitor or a real expensive one. It's actually cheaper to buy a new computer. So, he's giving me a nice Mother's Day present this year. My new fancy Dell will be delivered around the 24th (or sooner I hope). In the meantime, I'm having a terrible time viewing anything. So, before the entire system crashes, he is rushing to download all my files onto his laptop. He's copying all my links, pictures, files, and anything else that's really important to me. It's wonderful to have an inhouse IT guy at my disposal.

I wanted to send along happy Mother's Day wishes to all my blogpals. I hope you receive lots of love and attention on this special day. If you will be apart from your children, I know they are thinking of you and wishing they were with you. If your children will be spending the day with you tomorrow, I hope you enjoy every precious minute.

Happy Mother's Day, Motherkitty
and, it's so nice to hear from you again. I hope your knee is getting better with each day and how nice to be getting a new computer. The 24th will be here before you know it.
Isn't it nice to have your own personal
in-house IT Guy...we all can't be so lucky. Have a nice day.

So that accidentally spilling your coffee on the back of the monitor worked, huh? Way to go! Oh, sorry, was that a secret? Anyway, you got a new computer out of it! Way to go!

Hope you have a great Mother's Day!

Motherkitty was surprised by Kitten Yarn, Dancer Girl and Little One. Details at Tomas Muse and Kitten Yarn.
Motherkitty's computer is a fuzzywazy lite blue-gray with chocolate dips and lightning bolts flashing down from up there.

Happy Mother's Day (belated)! I missed you in your absence, and I am so happy you are back!

Much love and hugs!

Oh and if you need a new monitor, I can start fundraising for you!

Happy late Mother's Day to one of my other moms. :)

Sorry about the monitor -- I had a monitor not so long ago that would turn pink and purple. Cool on the new Dell. I got a great Dell laptop for Christmas and love it. And hubby got me a lovely flatscreen monitor for my desktop computer for my birthday. LOVE IT!

Hope you had a great mother's day.

Peace & Hugs,

Tomorrow is the day Motherkitty gets a new computer. It will take most of the day setting it up. Hopefully Motherkitty will blast into a new time zone. Her PT is getting to the point where a cane is very close to being in the works. She has been moving about on her own now for a least four days. She has to go back and get the the walker. OH BOTHER!!

Maybe our new computers will be delivered on the same day :)
Hope you had a very happy Mother's Day. I worked in my garden...my favorite place to be. All three kids called. The grandkids will be down for a visit on Memorial Day weekend. Yah!
Hope you're improving every day and that the pain is receding!!

I know how you feel - if you get to read this - my computer is on it's last leg also and has been giving me all kinds of trouble lately. How nice of your hubby to save your files for you. I have been trying to save at least my pictures and email to disk.
