Debt Free or Bust

Got My Laptop Fixed - Finally!!!

Hey everybody,

I’m so happy!!! I finally got my laptop fixed. It spent a month at home waiting for me to save the money to take it in, then spent another month at the shop while they got what I needed done confused. But, all is well and I’m writing this post on my laptop.

Total cost to replace the CPU cooling fan: $174.38. That’s a lot less than originally quoted and budgeted for, so now I have a little extra money. I’m very glad I chose to fix this computer. I’m also glad I got the desktop machine back in working order. Now I’ll just have to keep a closer eye on it to keep it running smoothly.

The extra money will help pay court costs and attorney’s fees when I file bankruptcy in the next couple of weeks.

It’s been a long week. It’s dead week, the week before final exams. My students are panicking and scheduling lots of extra sessions. I’m not sure whether I’ll be done Wednesday or Thursday next week. Thursday is the last day of exams, so that’s the absolute last day for this semester. I’ll have about 10 days off before I start summer tutoring for the 8th grade LEAP test.

During that time I’ll be working on my blogs, writing my son’s 7th grade homeschool curriculum, and drumming up more tutoring clients for the LEAP. I’ll keep you posted!

Does everyone remember years ago how when we were at school if there was a party going on, flyer's would be handed out in between classes or amongst a group of friends? If not... you have seen the movies where people give out flyers about a big party at Howie Lowenstein's place on Friday night! The classic "throw the flyers" routine from the top of the stairs and everyone gets a copy magically fall into their hands?

Or now, how many of us receive invitations to events through Facebook that already have over 30 people RSVP to go.
