Topic: What are you doing right now?

That's it, her cough is too bad.  I'm going to have to bring her down and look after her while watching telly in bed.

Oh well, let's hope she's better tomorrow.

Is she better today, smokester?

trying to remember something , because I feel like I've forgotten to do something important.

Is she better today, smokester?

She doesn't cough that much during the day when she has a cough, it's when she gets horizontal that it really kicks off. 

She was coughing until about 2am last night right next to me so I didn't get that much sleep. That said, it was at a much reduced rate than it was when she was upstairs in her own bed.

Hopefully I'll have a better night.

Sorry to hear that smokes.  I hope she gets better soon.

It gets worse as today I went to fit some windows only to realise I have ordered them at the wrong size.  Lost £500 in doing so

Yay!! Sounds like returning them is out of the question.

ebay them

[smokester]

They are made to measure and it's a chance in a million that they'd fit somewhere else.  I once threw away 3 sets, however, in that case it was the joiner who'd sent them wrong and he had to stump up for the new sets.

The company I use is sending me down some new ones at cost so once the job is all finished, I should still earn about £100.  Better than losing £500 but worse than earning £400.

  you never know.

you never know.

I may well have got lucky you know, I'll know for sure tomorrow.

Right now I am feeling like poo warmed up without the warmed up bit.  I am completely drained and lethargic and I am not entirely sure why - although I do have a good idea.

trying to get see if my 5 month old laptop is repairable 
for some reason it restarted in its protected neoprene sleeve whilst in its bag.
I heard a clicking noise after about 2.5 hours and found it  on .
BOY was it hot.
turned off and cooled it down in the open air.
Now nothing 
placed a new hdd in , removed the ram and refitted it.
took out the battery and tried to turn on ac power only.
nothing what so ever  happens.
The small AC mains light that appears when plugged in doesn't even light.
Can only guess the processor has burnt out ??
Well issed off i can tell you.
Have just bought a new hybrid hdd and more ram to fit ( luck would have it, not fitted as yet )
Hope i can bluff Ebuyer into a new laptop .
Still under guarantee and no idea if they can find out how it burnt out.
Well it didn't shut down as it should have , so a fault maybe with the laptop anyway.

And to top it all my desktop froze on a update and i had to reboot it 
F*c* it wont boot freezes at boot up showing bios, well most of the bios as my spare  hdd / dvd drive is missing.

I'm off to bed , have had enough of anything electronic 
this is posted from my wifes if you are wondering how i posted.

Surely your home insurance would cover that even if it was your fault (not saying it was though). I have claimed when I dropped my video camera which evidently was due to my own stupidity.
