A part of me has died

 I won't be posting much the next few days (or weeks, not sure how long) because my computer decided to hate me and stop working! We are working on fixing it, my husband and a friend (who's all the way back in California) are trying to figure out what's wrong. Hopefully we can fix it on our own without having to take it in and pay someone to do it!!

The last few weeks the computer has been randomly shutting off and refusing to turn back on. When it does this I try everything to get it back on, I push the power button a million times, take out the power cord and try turning it on without the power plugged in, put the power cord back in and try again to turn it on, take out the battery then try turning it on again, whisper sweet nothing to the computer and try turning it on, then I resort to calling my computer names and maybe saying a few curse words before trying again! The only thing that works to get it on when it does this is time. I sit around and wait an hour or so and it will usually turn back on.

Such was not the case on Wednesday night. We had used my laptop to watch a few Netflix movies and when we were done I closed everything out, closed the screen down and put my computer in the cabinet we keep it in. Later that night I took the computer out to do some stuff. I tried turning it on and nothing! Rob noticed the power cord wasn't all the way plugged in so we thought maybe it was just a dead battery. We let it charge for a little bit and still nothing. Eventually the blue power light would come on when we pushed the power button but the screen stayed blank. Now, the screen will not turn on, the computer appears to be turning on but not the screen. Rob thinks maybe there is an issue with the fan since the computer was getting really, really hot. Maybe he's right but I don't get why the screen isn't coming on!!

So, for now I am computer-less. I am using Rob's computer to type this post and I hate his computer. I don't plan on using it very much because my computer is better! My computer has my whole life on it, all of our important documents, school stuff, all of our photos for the last 2 years, EVERYTHING is on that little rectangle. I need it to work!

I hope everyone has a great weekend and I hope to be back up and running soon!!!
