What a month!

OK, I'm having a cracking month.

I tell my wife that when our 3 year old family XP PC dies I would like a Mac next.....

A week later, the old family PC dies, fried graphics card et al.......

I get accused of knobbling the PC so I can get my Mac before Christmas....

I borrow a Mac Mini from one of my schools, so at least we have a computer to work on.....

On the day that we break up for a week off work Diane's (wifey) mum is rushed into hospital. She has a burst ulcer and has to have an emergency operation. Very scary time for all the family. On a good note and much to the comendation of the Robsons and Browns, her whole family was at the Hospital that day, all of us. Under different circumstance it would have been quite a party, and maybe on another day it will. Dianes mum is in intensive care at the moment and hopefully a more positive post to follow this one.

Why have I posted these two things together.

Well, one brings the other into context. Diane's Mum put the computer problem into perspective, as in insignificant. But, as soon as Diane got home she was looking on the internet enquiring about her mother condition, which put the hospital back into context.

Me, I hope I am being a good husband, I'm ferrying and fetching. I know I've not been a great Dad under the stress, but this week I might make that up.

Is there any good family movies in the UK this week?
