What else?

So, my desktop computer is on the fritz. We brought it to the computer doctor yesterday. They are going to look at it, if it needs a new hard drive they said we were better off to just buy a new computer. And they said that ANY computer out today is going to be better than the one we have. Jeez, I thought we had a good computer.
Brooke's desktop is also acting up. We haven't even looked at hers yet, I think we are pretending that all is well with it. So for now, we are all using our little laptop and the poor thing gets so overworked it will be the next one sent to the computer doctor.
Brooke's cell was also acting up. So the closest AT&T is in Concord. We schlepped all the way down there and come to find out she had too many old text messages on it and it was bogging it down. She only had 9000 incoming and outgoing texts last month, why in the world would that bother it!!?? So they cleaned everything out and it is working fine.
The snow blower is also on the fritz. There is some part that has to be replaced because it no longer can move on its own, the last storm Gary had to manually push it every time up the driveway. I can't even push the thing 2 feet in the garage so I don't know how he did that! The part for that came in and Gary will fix it Sunday, because God knows, this snow is not done torturing us yet.
Brooke spent vacation week in Farmington Maine checking out UMaine. She loved the college and everything about the place, except that it does not have a "nursing program". They told her that she would have to take 4 years of Biology and then 2 more years at the tech or UNH in the nursing program. And the Biology classes, there are probably 2 that pertain to nursing. I do not want to spend 20-something thousand a year for classes that are not doing anything toward her goals. nuh-uh. As we haven't heard from UNH yet, and Brooke is not thrilled about going there we are leaning toward the tech in Concord where they have a really good nursing program. We had suggested this to begin with, but she was sure that we were wrong. Now we are right. I love to be right. So we will need to get the application going soon, probably today. And she has to take the NLN test prior.
Did I mention the motorcycle? no, I didn't. That got a new set of exhaust pipes, stock ones yesterday. It is much quieter, and we sold the old ones on e-bay for a nice profit. In the course of putting that on yesterday Gary discovered something else that needs to be fixed on it, another $100. I hope my washing machine is not going to be the next casualty in this house!!
