Weekly Preview and Review

My laptop is still not working. :-( The graphics card has apparently died and since it is integrated with the motherboard, that means a new motherboard. We ordered one, but due to a miscommunication between David and I, it was the incorrect model. The correct one costs about $120 (more than twice the cost of the one we ordered wrong) so now I am thinking about just buying a new laptop since I can get one on sale for between $300-400. I have been working for two weeks on the kids' desktop computer which has some issues itself. ACK.

Emily is now 16 - we had a pleasant family celebration. She will celebrate with friends later in the month.

David went to the eye doctor to order contacts!

Emily has one more dissection class; so far she has dissected a worm, a crayfish, and a perch. Next up - frog.

David visited a local TV station with his computer careers class - a worthwhile visit.

Suzy spent the night with a friend on Friday and the next night, the same friend stayed overnight here.

Going to go with David to visit another local college this week, and then he is going to go to an Engineering "Open House" at Baker, which I think is actually a robotics competition. I think Bob will go with him to this event.

Emily has started soccer practice - indoors for now. Their first game will be April 9th.
