Overwhelmed

I have been so overwhelmed lately.  It sucks. I’m so behind in my school work as far as reading chapters go. I turn i all my assignments on time but it seems like this week everything has caught up with me.  We had computer problems.  Our computer completely shut down on Tuesday.  We took it to a shop to get repaired. They charged us 112 dollars and when we got home the computer still wasn’t working.  My husband took it back within 30 minutes and they did one more test and said the problem was the memory stick which is what the initial problem was.  Hubby told them to fix it and they said it was going to be another 100 dollars.  Hubby was like you should have caught it the first time. Hubby got mad left the comp there and told him that I would be in tomorrow. Well, I went right back.  They closed their shop 15 minutes early. I knocked on the door and they let me in. I told them i wanted my computer and my money back.  They reformatted the comp which was an extra 75 bucks which if they had caught the memory stick problem from the get go wouldn’t have needed done.  This is why they should have ate the cost of the memory stick.  THey told me the computer would work off and on. I told them I paid and had a receipt that said they fixed all problems and i should have a working computer which I didn’t.  I ended up leaving with half of my money back.  I promised them I would let everyone know about their horrible business.  The computer works without the memory stick and is fine unless you bring up a second web page and then you can see a big difference in the speed. It sucks. We are going to get another memory stick this weekend.  We can find one cheaper then they were going to charge us plus my hubby can put it in.

Anyway, now that I’ve blown that out of my system…lol!!! I am working on getting my homework caught up. The funny thing is that I have three assignments that need to be done on the computer so I needed it for that.  It’s one  reason I’m backed up. This semester has just been so overwhelming.  I’m two weeks away from starting phase 2 of my diet which is a lot stricter then what I’m doing now so I’m trying to relax and take a deep breath so I can get myself in order so I’m not going to fail at it.  I refuse to fail anything!

    If you refuse to fail, you’ll come out a winner.  If you apply that concept to dieting, you’ll really come out a winner!

    Too bad we were in Minneapolis.  Micheal could have fixed that computer problem in an hour or less and probably for a fraction of the cost!

    Some days are just like that…And all you can do is take a GIANT deep breath, and just ride out the chaos…

    Good luck!
