Two days again!

Wednesday
Yep, two days in one post again.  Wednesday I got on the phone with Samsung support about Vera's laptop and that is where I spent most of the day.  I have to say one thing, both times I called, I got to talk to a live person right way.  The first time the guy had me do a complete restore back to the manufacture date.  When I started installing software, it went to the blue screen again and died.  The second time I called, a different guy had me do the same thing and it died  part way through the restore, so he had me try a BIOS update or something like that, then it died part way through that.  Did I mention we had a lot of noise on the line, plus he had an accent, so things were not going very smoothly!  When he said the noise was on my end, I told him it was fine until they transferred me to him.  After the BIOS failure, he said it needed to be sent in for service, transferred me to  guy number three and now the line was really noisy!  We finally got things arranged and they sent me a prepaid UPS label, but my address was listed as 114 Wisteria Rd Duffle Rock!  Then I could not find a box big enough to ship it in, so it was off to town, and there were none big enough there either.  So we are going to run to Longview tomorrow and do it.

Thursday

We walked this morning and after we got home, I went over to see the twins for a little while before we ran to Longview.  They were just finishing their bath when I got there.  When they were dressed, they turned on the music and started dancing, it was so much fun to watch!  Their marching song came on and they marched during the whole thing, I videoed it, when I get a chance I will try and get it on Vimeo.  It took a couple of stops before we found a box big enough at Office Max, while we were in there, I ended up buying a label maker.  We parked under the bridge to Kelso so I could assemble the box and pack the laptop into it with out getting wet.  After dropping it off at UPS, we had lunch at Dairy Queen and headed home.  After paying bills online, I went out and played with my new label maker and got some of my drawers labeled.  I did a little work on the kitchen counter this evening, one more step done!
