bit more about my computer :-(

Donny has been working on my computer today (I am on his), and I had
a laptop mouse hooked up to it. The keys worked for a little bit (had to
press hard to get the letter typed) and then stopped altogether. He tried
to wipe out windows and reinstall it, BUT the keys would not work so he
couldn't type in the key. Haylee had bought windows xp for her old computer
but we bought her a laptop so she didn't have to use it. So he is installing that
on my laptop. It is gonna be weird going from vista back to xp, but if it fixes my
computer then I don't care. So far the keys/mouse are working. He is still working
on it. Cross your fingers for me please. He is hoping he can get it fixed too. He said whenever i check my email it makes his computer run bad. LOL. pooooooor thing. hehe.

Update on Wyatt from his Shriner's appt.

Wyatt had his Shriner's appt. the Tuesday before Christmas. Pretty good news. His femur bone is almost 100% grown back. It looks really good. Rounded like it should be. There is just a bit at the top that is not grown back but that will come in soon. The nurse practitioner (we couldn't see Dr. Kim (and wont anymore cause he is moving out of state-WAH) because I had to cancel his appt. from the week before because I had strep) said if he stays off his leg and does what he is supposed to and wears his braces for 12hours a day (from 6pm-6am) then next Christmas he should be able to start walking again. So I need all the finger crossing, praying, encouragement for him to do what he should so he can get out of his wheelchair/walker. It is so hard for an 8 year old boy to not walk and run and flop around on the floor to play. But he is doing as good as we can hope for. I don't think I could handle it.
Anyhow, my computer is trash (still hoping for a miracle) so once in a while I jump on Donny or Haylee's laptop to check email. Their laptops are so different than mine so takes getting used to. will try to post about Christmas. Hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas and got to spend it with family/friends and got all you wished for.
Picture of Wyatt on Christmas Eve, just got his hair cut. And Haylee in the mirror saying "AWWWWW". LOL

My computer is trash

Saturday my computer was fine, I worked all day with my cricut/DS with no problems. Then Sunday I turned it on and nothing. It came on, but froze in one spot and would not do anything.
Couldn't turn it off properly, but got it off. I have tried numerous times and nothing. Donny worked on it for 2 hrs last night and nothing. It boots in safe mode so he knows it is not the computer itself. It must have a virus or something. He can not figure out what to do. We are going to try to get my important stuff off in safe mode. Cross your fingers for me. So it seems I am without a computer. I cannot afford to take it anywhere to get fixed so wahhhhhhhh no computer for me. I am on Haylee's computer right now. She doesn't like to share. I don't like her computer anyhow, it's weird. lol.
Just wanted to wish you all a very Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays. If I don't respond to anything you send me, so sorry. If you really need me, you can call me.
plus all my email address's are in my outlok express acct. and NOT on gmail itself, so I can't email everyone.
Have a safe holiday.
Christy and family.
