I hate computers.

I really hate computers.
And you would think that with the trouble we have - we would be experts at backing-up our information, but we never learn....
I'll get more to that later.....

Fredrik came home pretty early today because he had an emissons test for his work car. So he was home at 14.00 and yesterday we had decided that we would get some things done around town since he would be home before all the stores close.. :/ :)

So he got home and we went to the office where I have to turn in my "proof of pregnancy" paper. That took about 2 seconds.. :/ :) And then we went to the paint store and got paint for the room! So we hope to start that this weekend! :) (Even though the plans of painting for this afternoon were completely shot.)

And a couple of days ago we received an ad in the mail for a washer and dryer, they were on sale, about 2000 sek (300$) off each one, so we thought that we would go buy them. And there was a store in Säffle (about 15 minutes away) - which was awesome that we didn't have to drive all the way to Karlstad (1 hour away). So we got there and ordered the washer and dryer and we also ordered a freezer for the basement! We might should get them some time next week (I think). So now we have no money. :D
But the washing machine is an "A+" with electricity and the dryer is a "B." So, that should help save money in the long run! And they both hold 7 kg (~15 lbs.). (Most hold about 5-6 kg.) So we think we made a good buy! :)
And the freezer is desperately needed. We have a tiny freezer with the fridge.

After feeling slightly guilty about spending so much money... :D We came home and I made some homemade pizza for dinner (super yummy btw).. and while it was baking - I turned on the computer - and the computer kept restarting itself.

So, the computer (desktop PC) has completely died. We think it is either mechanical or electrical.
So for the last couple of hours (about 3-4) "we" (Fredrik) has been trying to get it to work, and we managed to get Linux going, so that we could get to the harddrive and try to save all my stuff!! So we've managed to get some files and pictures. And now Fredrik is going through his stuff seeing what he wants to save (or what is prudent to save).. So that we can reinstall the stupid !¤%&#@ computer. And then we still don't know if it is going to work. For awhile, I thought Fredrik was going to through it down the basement stairs, when he mentioned just going and buying me a new laptop. (Which is tempting, but I refuse to have the new Windows Vista.) :/

So right now I am on Fredrik's laptop trying to write all that we got done today.. :/ :)

I slept SO well last night! I only had to get up once during the night! I felt so refreshed, like a new person.. :/ :)) But I think last night I realized why I've been feeling so icky - the constipation that I had in the first trimester has definitely returned.. :/ So I think that is giving me lots of belly aches.
And I have heartburn ALL the time now.. :/ Thankfully I have some amazing pills from the US that get rid of it right away. Anything I eat gives me heartburn, and when I lay down.. :/ (In the US - they say if you have lots of heartburn that your child will have a LOT of hair.) :)) But right now I am blaming it on the salami that I put on the pizza.. :/ :))

I think that is all for now..
Time for some ice cream and to drag Fredrik away from the computer so that he can not stress about it too much.

P.S.
Those of you that might have e-mailed me, I apologize, but it might be awhile before I get back to you... :P
