Woohoooo!

i've had a really good day so far!
my glasses *finally* came in!
yay! i'll post a picture below.
i can actually finally see.
it's so weird, hahaha.

& i am soooo happy.
me & .chris went to .best .buy,
& we were looking at laptops,
& we found a really really good one.
so we thought, well hey, let's try
to apply for a .best .buy card.
so we did, & we got accepted for $1200!
so, we got a new laptop!
our payment is only $20/mo!

we figured it'd be really smart to get one now,
before our apartment is ready. because right now,
we aren't paying rent, or very many other bills.
so we can get it mostly paid off by the time we move out!

so i finally have a laptop again!
woohoooo!!!!

i get to go pick it up at about 8:30 tonight.
they're putting antivirus software on it for me.

& .all day, .chris & i have been getting along great.
maybe we're both in really good moods,
but we haven't fought or even argued a little today.
i'm really thankful for these stress-free days.

here's a pic of my new glasses!

I LOVE your new glasses .Krissy!
And .Best .Buy is the best place to get a laptop, because they have the .Geek .Squad. I got mine there, and the .Geek .Squad guys pretty much know me by name because I have non-savvy technology days.

aww, you look great in glasses! and hooray for being able to see!

not to be a downer or anything, but i'm betting the interest rate is pretty high on that best buy card. i suggest always paying as much as you can afford each month, not just $20, and get it paid off as soon as possible. if you just pay $20 a month it'll take years to pay off and in the end you'll have paid like $4000.

but yay for laptops! now you don't have to fight your sisters for computer access.

thanks guys!

yeah, .b, the interest rate is like 11%! super high. that's why we went ahead & got it now. because we can afford to pay waaaaaaaaaay more then $20/mo for it. so we can have probably half, if not more than half, paid off by the time we get our own place. we have 6 months no interest, so we're definitely gonna try to get it mostly paid off in 6 months.

it's a necessity, though. unfortunately. i'm definitely going to be doing something to make some money from home after .gabe is born. i'm about 90% sure .i'm going to take a medical transcription class & get certified to do those from home. & i need the internet & my own computer because a) it's an online class, & b) you do the transcriptions online!

i'm so happy, though. fiiiiinally something of my own! Laughing

im absolutely hating mine right now, seriously i'm so mad lol and i think i was mean to tommy when he called because i was so frustrated Sad ive even gotten mad to the point of tears lol its not that big of a deal it's just that i know what i'm trying to do works. im trying to plug in my webcam so i can take pictures.. well it wont work bt i used it like two nights ago! and then my msn keeps messing up and ive had to restart 800 doing it times. it's just annoying because I *know* this stuff works and it's so frustrating because i can't figure it out and nothings working for me. ugh lol sorry i needed to vent.

.Krissy, I love your glasses. You look even smarter than you did before! We got out computer from best buy as well, also using their credit card. We had like 12 months free interest, so we paid it off .a.s.a.p to avoid the interest, so it wasn't too bad.
Hmm, maybe once I get a new job I'll have to look into a lap top. My hubby hogs our .p.c Evil or

I am so happy for ya! I got a dell laptop a few months ago b/c I started online classes this past semester, and it really makes it easy to be pregnant and all and not have to actually go to school. Guess what??? My baby's daddy called me and it might be looking like we can fix things. wish me luck!!!

I heard about something like that on the radio. I'd like to get into that but I'd have to go all the way to .Ft. Myers for it and it sounds like I might have to go up there for classes every once in awhile so .I'm not sure if I wanna do it...
