Don’t drop your laptop on your toe
Take it from me, that is a very painful thing to do, especially if you are bare foot. The laptop bounced and seems undamaged, I was left bouncing around in pain and now have a throbbing right big toe. Limited sympathy was received from hubby who stated that 1) it might be broken 2) you’ll probably lose that nail and c) put some ice on it. Thanks for you sympathy I thought as I got my own ice from the fridge.
This was the final chapter of a day that had involved a panic stricken phone call from teen son, to tell me his computer was broken, that there was an error message and where were the windows disks. Sadly he was unable to find the box with these unaided, so it had to wait for my return and then finally we worked out how to fix the thing and set about doing just that. Why though do these things tend to take such a long time. I suggested he find out more about computer fixing and perhaps take it up as a part time job. He briefly thought this was a good idea before he returned to the challenge of discussing football with his online cronies.
So I have just a couple of days before the weekend away and haven’t completed the ironing I was going to do last night. Still I am out tonight (a colleague leaving), so perhaps the ironing fairy will come along in my absence. Ah a pig just flew past the window, time to get up!
