Problem With My Computer. Tropical Storm Fay.

I finally have time to do blogging this subject.  Sorry, I hadn't responding to this blog cuz I had setbacks about the problem of my computer.  It broke down on the week of Tropical Storm Fay.  It happened during the storm one night since we moved into a new home.  We almost lost power few times.  I've tried to fix my computer few times but I quit for the last time.  The problem with my computer was that the screen won't be showing up for 10 minutes.  I waited and waited.  It still looked black and blank.  I had this problem before we moved into a new house.  So, my oldest brother, Joe, took my computer to the repair shop in Ormond Beach.  Joe said a part of my computer died.  I later found out there was a problem with the fan inside my computer.  I got my computer back to my home from the repair shop yesterday.  Joe paid it for me.  David, my youngest brother, set it up for me when I came home yesterday afternoon.  He knows how to do it.  David owns a laptop.  I thanked David for that.  Whew!

I did go to the library last Tuesday for checking my e-mails in the computer while I waited for my computer to be repairing in the shop.  I had to do e-mailing Joe's friend who lives in the state of New York first.  Joe asked me to do that for him.  I tried to be in a hurry cuz the library has a rule, one hour limit.  I finished typing it 3 minutes before the end of session in my account.  Whew!  Then I started all over again to check my personal e-mails for another hour.  And then I went home.

Have u heard about Tropical Storm Fay?  It happened in Florida last week.  Florida got rain for a week.  It was awful.  Part of my home county got a flood but we are lucky that we are not flooding victims.  Thank God, we are safe.  Other county in my home state got it, too.  We almost lost power few times during the thunderstorm that is coming from T.S. Fay.  Oh, boy.  Many of thousand residents lost power, too.  I saw the sun again last weekend.  Finally.  Some residents of 2 counties lost everything due to a flood by T.S. Fay.  I heard they complain about it on local TV news.  Thank God, we moved into the new home at the right time before Fay but we didn't know it's coming our way.

I also heard that there will be another hurricane, Gustov, on the way to the Gulf of Mexico and possible to Gulf Coast.  I don't know where it will go to.  When I found out it will head to New Orleans, I said, "Oh, no, not again."  It reminds me of Hurricane Katrina, remember that almost 3 years ago?  Another hurricane, Hanna, in Atlantic Ocean and 2 more waves that are about starting to develop.

That's it for now but I have more details to talk about in the next blog later.

We've Moved!

Finally, I have time to take a break from doing cleaning up the stuff in my huge suite in the new big house but I am not done yet.  Also, yesterday I was supposed to do blogging this but I wasn't feeling well.  I did take breaks between chores since I've moved into it to join my family.  I am waiting for someone else to help me to put things away like in my bedroom closet so I could leave my mom leave alone.  My huge walk-in bedroom closet is a mess!  It's not straight out.  I have a hard time to put things away without a help from someone else cuz I am disabled.

I finally got a connection to an internet last Thursday morning, August 7th.  I waited for my computer to be hooked up patiently until last Thursday.  Our TV cable company guys fixed up the connection for us but in a separated way.  My own TV cable that is connected to a computer and theirs a different one.  My TV set looks different than the one I had for a year because the size of my 2007 TV set doesn't fixing into the shelf of an opened square wall.  I mean it's at the top of my computer.  If you don't understand what I mean this, I will send a digital picture of it to all of you soon.  You will be curious looking at it by a surprise.

Anyways, we were so busy unpacking our stuff for a week.  It's crazy and awful.  We've moved into a big brick house last Monday August 4th.  I haven't a chance to say goodbye to my old apt because Sunney, Mom's friend, forced me to go over to their new house right away during lunch hour.  My stuff in the apt was not ready to go, unfinished, but other boxes already packed and sent to a rental truck.

I have had experienced of living in an old apt (see the photo on the right) for almost 7 years.  Memories of living there were I fell 3 times while walking with a pair of canes in the spring of 2003, probably due to the problem of my right knee; lost power 3 times during hurricane season 2004; some friends came over for a visit few times; got new queen bed from Joe in the summer of 2007; the first video phone, D-Link, I've got 2 years ago and then later on Sorenson; got a new TV set last year; and got very sick due to belly pains and began losing weight fast by my illness last year.

We live in a new, big brick house (see the photo on the right), a tan one, with a swimming pool.  I am on the first floor.  My huge suite that have a large bathroom locates on the west side in the back.  My own bathroom has also a rose jacuzzi and a shower.  I am sharing it with Dad.  Dad is also staying on the first floor and have own his bedroom because he's having a hard time going upstairs and downstairs due to his health.  It's beautiful.

I've given up my childhood desk anymore cuz it looks not in a good shape.  I've used it for more than 20 years.  I got it as a big Christmas present from my parents when I was 11 1/2 yrs old.  I do recall I didn't ask for it.  It was a big surprise.  My 1 year old queen bed have been given away cuz I got another new bed from previous owners.  It's very comfortable to sleep in.  Also, new white dresser with a mirror and a bedside table.  And new couch and lounge.

My Sorenson VP 200 is not really to set up yet.  I will contact Sorenson VP company to send a VP employee to set it up for me when my room is done cleaning up.  Cleaning up the room comes first.  That's the hardest part I have to do.  I already put 2 boxes of Sorenson VP on top of my desk.  I have had an idea where I wanted it to.  And about my bus service, Votran, I will call that company to ask for the change of my home address on TTY soon.

I don't have time to do swimming in the pool in the back of our new house cuz I have been busy cleaning up.  But I saw my oldest brother, Joe, swimming since yesterday.

I have to go now.  Will see ya later!
