I finally got a laptop. I was always fighting with my kids and DH to get on the desk top, drove me crazy. They would tell me all you want to do is get on your quilting thing. I don't expect them to think it is important to them but it is to me. Now I have my own pc and they cant use it cause it is mine.

Congratulations! You enjoy it!

I am getting a lap top too. My PC keeps breaking down!

My husband and I tried to use one computer after he was done work and that lasted less than a week. There are just some things that we can't share

BEWARE....a laptop can by your downfall....I have one and I spend hours in my comfy chair reading this board....(LOL).

You wait they will still bug you for it or worse yet like when your on the phone and chatting how they come and have to speak to you RIGHT THEN? Thats what its like when your doing something on your computer too. I will hook up MY computer before I will hook up a tv in my home in a NY Second. Congratulations!

Congratulations! I don't think I could share my laptop with someone else.

Congrats!
I have a mini laptop that I just adore!
I can put it in my sewing room and follow directions on it so I don't have to print anything out. Plus, when I get lazy and want to sit comfy style, I can go on the couch with it and read the board. :)

Congratulations!!! It sounds like you sooo deserve your own, too!! lol

There Dad already told them not to ask to use it. I know my DH will be the one to bug me for it. LOL

Congrats on your new laptop. Have fun and visit us often.

Whoo Hoo! Congrats! I never thought I'd want a lap top, but decided to get one about 6 months ago and LOVE it!

:thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:
WOO HOO Enjoy :mrgreen: And when you aren't using it hide it :wink:

I knew it as soon as I was showing my DH my new toy he starts asking if he can use it for school. (he goes to school part time and works full time) Well I wiggled my way out of it cause I don't have microsoft works (he uses that to write papers all the time) and I explained that it would cost more than a 100.00 to buy. He gave me a dirty look, even tho he is the one who doesn't like to spend money. (he leaves that up to me.)I think I can live without it.
I will have to watch myself cause I caught myself using the laptop way too much yesterday. But it is still new, it will wear off soon. I didn't use it as much as I did my new IPOD.
I just love tax time, it is the only time I get to buy fabric and other things and don't have to worry about the price.
Found a new fabric store called Batiks Quilting and it is here in town. Guess where I am going today?

I don't understand why ppl don't seem to know what the word NO means. Everyone wants to use my laptop. I just keep saying no. They can fight over the desk top. My DS is too rough on stuff an my DD is too. When does NO start meaning NO?
