I skipped water aerobics this morning, in favor of traveling with Hubbie to another town to buy a laptop computer. I've been mulling over my options for a long time, and decided to bite the bullet today and get one. Hubbie offered to pay half of the cost, which was enough incentive to make me ready to purchase.
I bought the model recommended by my computer guy, who also owns the store that sells them, and who willingly helps me when I run into problems...often without extra charges to me. Today, he knocked $50 off the price of the computer, and traveled to my house to set up the wireless router without charge.
At the store, I learned that the computer guy's wife is pregnant with her third child. Several years ago, when I was a job placement specialist for disabled people (a state agency job), I worked with this 30-something lady.
Back home, Mother and I began tasks related to having a houseful of family for Thanksgiving...ironing a stack of table clothes, getting out serving dishes and platters, making a shopping list of groceries and incidentals, moving furniture around to make space for dining tables, etc.
And, of course, I began the process of getting acquainted with my new laptop.
