Update

Today I send my laptop back to Apple for repairs.  My hard drive seems to have a glitch with the CD/DVD mechanism.  I hate to see her go, but I know that it is necessary and I also know this will be a time of limited distractions and I can focus on the Lord more and get into a better routine of life.
I do plan to use this time to work out a schedule of sorts.  I know I still spend way more time online than I should, so I'll be working on that.  Not to mention the several projects I'm working on for the arrival of my niece and the 12 quilts I need to get started with for my sweet friend and her family.

Please continue to pray as I am still seeking employment and our funds have completely run out now.  I know God is able and the things he has done have blown my mind.  The things He will do, will be no different.  He will definitely be glorified and lifted up!!!!!

Hopefully when I get my laptop back I'll have pictures of my projects to share!!!

ADDENDUM:  I have since discovered one of the reasons I'm not getting call backs for jobs is I have been blacklisted by a former employer.  Please join with me in praying for their hearts.  This supervisor was very angry and bitter towards me during my time of employment.  Also not a believer.

Somethings wrong with my toy!

Last year I treated myself to a gift I had been wanting for a long, long time.  Actually, we don't exchange Christmas gifts in December, that's Jesus' time.  We exchange gifts in February or March...depends on income tax.
So last year I told the children not to worry about getting me a gift, I knew what I wanted and I'd get it.  It was/is my MacBook.
Well, the cd/dvd drive has stopped working.  It is unable to read the discs but you can hear it trying really hard.  My poor laptop sounds so sick making that funny noise.  I can see signs of where it has been dropped (I'll have to go back to no one touching it but me).
Getting an Apple product repaired can be pretty costly.  I had forgotten that I purchased the Apple Care Protection Plan.  I called today to just get an estimate of the cost for them to just look at it and give me a diagnosis.  I gave the lady my information and she said, to bring it in is free, for us to look at it is free, for a diagnosis is free, and your repair will most likely be free as well.  Normally the only thing this plan does NOT cover is the screen...which is actually glass and to have it repaired is just about as much as it is to buy a new one!!!!!
Well, I totally love Apple products...you can't just walk in with your product, you have to make an appointment to take it in and have a one on one with one of the Geniuses at the Genius Bar.  I'm so stinkin' excited, I get to go to the Apple Store!!!!  I thoroughly enjoy going to the Apple Store, but I'm careful not to go unless I have to.  If I go and I don't need to be there, I begin to drool!!!!  Their products are top notch if you ask me.  Maybe others don't think so, but I've been a fan for well over 16 years and the quality of their products is like none other.

I'll tell you what happens Friday.  Hopefully I won't be separated from my favorite toy for very long.
