Technology Crippled. Awaiting a Speedy Recovery.

Though we have a swimming pool I don't always want to go through all the steps necessary to go for a dip.  Thus, I purchased a kiddie pool.  You know the kind you add water and It's 2 feet high.  I never thought in a thousand years I would purchase one.  It's perfect because I can keep it under the patio.  Which means I don't have to hassle with sunscreen.  (My sunscreen drama post to follow...)  So, last week when it was like 100 degrees closer to He_ _ (double hockey stick) I set the pool up.  I thought, I can site right next to her and work with my laptop. There I was working away.  She was so cute.  Playing with all her toys.  Then....... SPLASH.  Yeah, that's right, she learned how to effectively splash about a pint of water onto my laptop.  Laptop became toast with the water and heat.  I have now become technology crippled.  I've been out of service for a week.  Lonely without my web presence!  It has taken some adjustment.  My computer is at the doctor.  I'm hoping for a speedy recovery.

Bummer Tracey!!! Sorry! The things kids do and manage to break . . . it never ceases to amaze me. Just when I think I have it all under control, they show me otherwise. Hope your laptop gets a quick fix!

Yep, electricity and water don't like each other very well. Sorry to hear that! :(
