a little stressed... but as mr. justice used to say:
shake it off, come back strong
i love how the Lord doesn't let me get too confident or comfortable in any situation. always, always He reminds me how very much i need Him.

and He also helps me not to take anything too seriously.

so tuesday night after work i was setting my computer up before britt and stef came over for bible study... and the computer began to do really weird things - make loud whirring noises, starting and restarting randomly, and scrolling down a list of files. it was totally shot.
stef recommended taking the battery out and letting it rest for the night. i did that, but the next morning it was still all messed up. so i asked jody for help. he asked if i had a cd that could reformat the computer in case of just this situation.... and so it came to that. i had to completely revamp the computer and start all over. i lost everything, tests, quizzes, pictures... yep. everything. i decided to look on it as a cleansing process. breathe deeply.
no tests for the kids, then. there was great jubilation amongst them all, of course. :) and i have a little more time to get my stuff back in order.

the Lord is good.

Awww, Ruth! I'm sorry your computer freaked out on you. I would have a nervous breakdown if my computer died with all of my lessons, worksheets, test, quizzes, etc. on it. Sounds like you're taking it in stride! I love you very much! I hope you're doing well besides all of the crazy computer issues!! :) Love you!

I love and miss you so much!
