Ugh!

I know I havent updated in a while (I've had my reasons)

One reason being, there hadnt been much to update on.

this past week though has been one of those 'ugh' weeks. looks like I'll have to start paying notes on that car again as my cousin Patrick cant afford to keep it as planned. and just this morning, I tripped on a whire, knocked my brand new Acer Laptop to the floor and busted the screen... there's a chance I can never get it fixed or replaced...

to top it all off, the #$@# internet hasnt been working at home for the past few days. I'm having to use the library computer to type this message.

But I'm trying to keep my chin up.... Keep a possitive attitude about things. I keep telling myself  "It'll all get better. Things happen, just move on and try to stay optimistic about it all."

Its just so gosh darn hard...

Okay, there is some good news. I have a job. Working at a Krystals Burger joint. Its minimum pay, but its better than nothing. and it may not help much on the car notes that are about to come back my way, but it'll put a dent in it somewhere.

And before I so foolishly destroyed my Acer laptop, I did manage to get quiet a bit done on the Percy script (after the destruction of said computer, I had to quickly press ctrl-s to save it, and later used an external monitor and a 2 gig thumb drive to export the file safely to my other laptop... so, all in all, life is still good in some ways)

And the remainder of the day will be spent formatting my old laptop and and reinstalling XP to get certain features to work correctly. I may eventually get right back to the ol Percy script before the day is out.

I have faith that the day will get better. And I will be calling the manufactuer of Acer Computers on monday to see what can be done about my laptop. fingers are crossed that I can send it in to get it fixed.

Wal Mart declined me the chance of getting a replacement.. #@$#@ gits!

still...

chin up. Smile, and get on with it. The rest of this day will be great gosh darnit!

Aww.. Yea we all have those times when everything's working against us. It's good to keep on smiling though, and it's great that you can actually do that. I'm sure things will go a little better for you soon, Aves :)

Stuff happens as they say.  Things work out the best for those who make the best of how things work out. :)  You seem to be doing just that.

 I am glad that you finally found a job and, most important, is that you keep a positive attitude... I know there are times that is too hard to achieve :blink: .
 Keep it up that things will get better!.
