Now what?

I guess my mini vacation from the computer lasted a LOT longer than I thought it would.

I have so many things that have happened from summer that I don't even know where to start... so I will start with this.

My laptop is officially dead.
Good news they were able to extract the hard drive and save everything.
Bad news to fix it would cost $1060.00.

SERIOUSLY.  I almost feel like that was a joke since you can get a totally new one for less.
So after a couple months of no laptop (at least) I am going to have to get a new one.  Not sure when, not sure what... but with school starting back up next week I feel like I need to start blogging again on a more regular basis.

So I am going to go a little backwards and highlight a few things from summer, skip the rest, and then move on to where we are currently.  It will be easier that way. :)
