I Apologize

Sometimes things do not go the way you would like.

Lately, I have had some interesting setbacks which have prevented me from posting as much as I would like. The sickies have gone around the house, landing me in bed a few times or causing the children to need constant attention. Ah, the joys of motherhood. Ahem, and of being a wife. Not long ago another blogger on Seven Babes had mentioned how men (or boys) become babies when they are sick. I think I know why . . .

Men need to feel loved and cared for from their wives. It is something deeply ingrained, but man, I can tell you that when I am feeling under the weather, I would like some of that love and attention. My husband becomes an invalid when sick, like most other husbands, but I can say that when I needed surgery, he really came through.

But, if it is just a fever of 103 degrees, eh, I’m still not feeling as bad as he is. 😉

That is not the best part, however. My son and youngest daughter decided that Mommy’s keyboard needed to stay hydrated, so a new one needed to be found. Amazing how most of the stores were out of USB keyboards and my computer will only take one of those. I had no idea! I thought all computers would take a standard and a USB. Learned two lessons:

1.Keep posting ahead.
2. Have 5 or so extra keyboards on hand.

For those of you that have an ALDI store near you, check out the electronics by the register. For the past few months all of the stores here have had roll-up, flat, water and dustproof keyboards for $7.99! Get two!
