Give Me A Baseball Bat!...

That is what I'm usually thinking when my computer doesn't do what it's suppose to do. Since last week I've been trying to get my blog from 2010 into book form. It's been one big frustration after another. My computer wouldn't let me preview the book. I tried a million and one ways to get to work. No luck. I finally tried it last night on the computer at Jack's office. Bingo! Success! Until I realized I needed to change the front and back cover pics. That was something my home computer would let me do. So last night, after I got home, I changed them and tonight I went back to the office to finish it up and order it. I drove into town after Jack went to his Boy Scout meeting. This will be a breeze! Except the computer wouldn't download the pages so I could preview the book..are you kidding me? I tried forever. Finally a message pops up that the website was upgrading, try back in a few hours. NO WAY..GET ME A BASEBALL BAT!!! I then proceeded to Jack's lap top in his office (instead of the computer in the outer office). Bingo! It loaded, it previewed, it was perfect! All I had to do was order! I placed the order and then got the credit card out to pay..I had just got the new one, the old one had expired. I cut up the old one. Only when I went to put in the expiration date I realized I had cut up the new one and I had the expired one in my purse. ARE YOU KIDDING ME??? GIVE ME A BASEBALL BAT SO I CAN BEAT MYSELF!!! So I called Jack during his scout meeting to get the number from his card...and the code number...hung up..realized I needed the expiration date..called him back...Anyway, I finally ordered the book. It better be perfect when it gets here. I use my blog as a journaling tool. At the end of next year I will read this post...this pictureless post and remind myself to hide all the baseball bats because I'm sure I'll be screaming at the computer or myself..Give me a baseball bat!! P.S...I had to edit this and add that on top of all of this nonsense, I forgot my glasses. I can't read a thing without them. I can see a fly in a knot on a tree from a million miles away, but my computer or a book...forget about it. Lucky for me Jack had a magnifying glass on his desk. Leave it to an old Scouter to be prepared. I read the credit card with a magnifying glass....that's the only way I picked up on the expiration date. I'm such a doofuss!
