Tuesday Evening
Hi all,
well things are going pretty well right now. Yesterday, Elizabeth came with me to her first Mall, she pretty much had a pretty quite time in the carrier. Though next time I take her I have to take the stroller, man my back was killing me this morning. I had to take her out at Starbucks, while I was drinking my coffee she got a bit fussy, and spat up a bit. After she was cleaned up I put her back in and we went to the grocery store to pick up some fixin's.
Roanna's parents came by for a visit later in the afternoon, we were over there on Saturday, and Granddad didn't get any time with Elizabeth, so they came over for a bit.
Today, we went to Roanna's job, to visit everyone, I took some pics, but I will post them tomorrow, I haven't bothered to download the camera. Eveyone was happy to see Roanna and Elizabeth, lots of hugging, and passing Elizabeth around and holding, etc, etc.
I guess I forgot to tell everyone I got the computer back from the shop, luckily they were able to fix it quickly and cheaply. 40 bucks it cost us, though it was quoted at about $120.
Funny story though, I called up the GEEK SQUAD, they are at best buy, last wednesday, tell them my name and asked them if my computer was ready (it had been two weeks). The guy comes back to the phone and tells me "the hard drive is fried, and I will have to wait to see if they can rescue any data off of it."
So I am like "OKAY!"
I go into the kitchen and pretty much am fuming for a minute cause ALL of my pictures, over 3 years worth, are on the harddrive.... then a bit of a peace comes over me, and I figure, well it ain't that bad, can't do anything about it now.
I tell Roanna the news, figure we will wait until we get called back, since there was a possibility that they will be able to do something.
Then a few minutes later, the tech calls back, and asks me, "which Foggo am I?" I tell him "Ian", he says, "oh, your Ian you have the desktop" apparently another Foggo had dropped off a laptop, and THIS was the computer that had the harddrive problem. Mine was fixed and I could pick it up anytime.
I thought it pretty strange that two Foggo's in Calgary would have computer problems in Calgary and pick the same store to use it for repairs.
We are still waiting for some good weather, I got the bamboo shades and put them up, and wouldn't you know it for the Sunday and Monday, we had rain, rain, hail and some snow in a few areas of Calgary. All I wanted to do on the holiday, was grill some hot dogs and sit out on the porch, sipping some lemonade. We had the hotdogs we had today, they were good.
Well talk to everyone later.
Roanna needs me to take Elizabeth for a bit,
Take care all,
