Day 261: 5 Gratitudes for Friday, 33...even though it is Saturday

1. Yes, I am still have computer/Internet problems, but yeah! I figured it out! Both computers work just find (my husband bought me a new one and I have been very slow to move everything over), but our wireless connection can only handle so many connections. I have 3 items that connect to the Internet - my 2 computers and my iPad; my husband has 4 items - 3 computers and his phone; our friend Chris (who lives in our basement) has at least 3 items - 2 computers and a phone. Plus, our copier has a wireless connection. That is a total of 11 items to connect to the Internet through our wireless router - about 3 too many. Anyway, the wireless router automatically drops off the items that our the least used...guess which items get used the least? Yep, the copier and my items. Basically whichever computer I turn on first in the morning is the one that connect....weird, huh? But I figured it out and will rev up getting all of my "stuff" switched to the new computer....and maybe, just maybe...I will stop having trouble. :)

2. Our crazy summer is almost over! But it has been a wonderful crazy summer! All the children had some type of camp to attend. We had a great time with cooking/sewing class with our friends. The reading program/challenge was a success. Our desks look great. We had a fun week when Steve was gone (not to mention our family vacation). This coming week is the last thing planned - my youngest daughter's baptism!

3. This one is a continuation of #2....family coming in to visit! Yeah! My parents are flying in - yeah! My older brother and his family are coming as well. The children are so excited to finally meet their cousins! I am so glad they were able to attend.

4. Perfect weather for the last couple of days. We held a 2 day cub scout day camp and we were outside the whole time! It was great. The boys had a great time and we did not get too hot. :)

5. For my children's hard work this week. We stepped up our normal cleaning for all the family visiting.  Cleaning is not easy nor is it fun, but my children were troopers. The house looks great too.
