...a computer virus, that is! A trojan horse. Everything and I mean EVERYHING is gone. baby pics, you name it. Sigh.

It's been a very busy and very odd two weeks without you. I shall update...

The baby-in-the-car thing blew over with nary a further word. thank God, and I've not (nor has mother in law) left her in the car since.

My father just got a conditional house arrest sentence for choosing not to pay his taxes for 3 years. He was mayor of Fort St. john, B.C, but was hoping on continuing his job as a chartered financial planner. Not to be cold, but I have no sympathy for him. he's my dad and I love him but he's mistrested everyone in his life for so long that he deserves this. Not to mention it was his choice not to file. And he hasn't done his 2003,04, or 05 ones either. Brilliant man with idiotic actions.

My cousin had a sweet little girl Kayleigh's age who was deprived of oxygen at birth, and she just died Friday. She had struggled for eons,and finally gave up. We're sad but a little bit relieved.

I am on a 3 week job right now at a special ed class similar to the one I had in the fall. Things are definitely coming my way MUCH more now. It's going really well and is quite peaceful compared to the other one.

There is rumor of 2 special ed classes opening up in the fall in my district. Please cross your fingers for me. I will start applying for everything in May.

My darling daughter has been relapsing in potty training here, and I'm at my wit's end. it's ONLY #1, ONLY with me, and NEVER does she soak herself. It's only when she wants attention too. But 2 days dry on this praise and threat-of-diapers thing, so hopefully it works!


So we have our good and our bad. I'm really sick of the bad, because I feel like I've been complaining for a year straight. At least my health is great. No IBS problems to speak of in ages, asthma's great...allergies are just awful but that's my life anyhow, springtime is guaranteed stoned-up sneezing misery.


Please keep me in your prayers for a full time job next year. I really am ready to make a difference in our financial situation, and would love to give our lonely only a sibling, but we can't even pretend to afford it. You know, my usual worries.LOL!


Hope you're all well.
Love, Shannon

I would be positively mortified. I just HAVE to back up all the photos on our PC, I would be CRYING! The most important ones I've made hard copies but I have tons and tons on the PC, and videos too. Eric has a lot of major firewalls and protections up but that is still a fear of mine.

Good to "see" you, take care,

I'm sorry to hear about your flatmate. I can tell you're a super compassionate friend...But, remember...(and I ahve to give myself this advice over and OVER!!) you are not her, and she is not you. It is her thing she's going thorugh, and her choice she's made and has to make. All you have power over is to support her. And do NOT let this get in the way of your uni!! I let my sister's drug problem interfere with years of mine and I guarantee if I'd not done that, I'd have had a job for a year or two by now.

Hang in there, it will all sort itself out. I personally hope she gives the baby up for adoption and seeks him ior her out as an adult if she needs. I know now as a mature adult that's what I'd do. Of course, when I thought I was PG at 23, well, that was another story!!:) She will do what is best for her and all you can do is support her, or smak her upside the head if she needs it.

Hugs, you're an incredible mate!!

Welcome back Shannon. Amazing how mucy we rely on computers and then when we don't have them . . .

Glad to hear of all the goods things going on in your life. Also, sorry to hear about the bad. I am really happy that the whole car thing blew over. One less thing to worry about.

Hugs,

Yes, there are still a ton of firuses etc. on here but it's managgeable now at least. You have to be very careful what you click on though, yikes. I am so glad though that it happened, because I've spent way too much time on it this year, and I was missing out on some great time with my daughter!!
