I'm in Santa Mode!!

Hello, all,
Sometimes I get tired of my usual humongous stitching projects, and need something small that provides instant gratification.  I've been working on Prairie Schooler Santas, inspired by Marly and her wonderful blog.

I am trying very hard to remain calm after a miserable day.  My son, Evan, who is now a senior at Wright State University majoring in History, had an accident with his very expensive computer.  A cat got in his room and knocked a drink on it, frying it.  To make matters worse, this was a present to him from me just a few months ago and not even paid for!  AND, his history paper was on it, with no paper copy, and due TOMORROW!!!!  So, he had to take his savings and go buy a new computer.  It really kills me that I will have to continue to make payments on this every month, as I had put it on a year free financing thing.  Never again!!  FYI, Apple Care, which costs extra, is NOT an insurance policy as I thought, it is just an extended warranty and does not cover lost or water damage!  I am having trouble accepting that you can just ruin a new computer and it can't be fixed, guess I just don't understand these things.  I might just take the money out of my savings to pay off my account so that I don't have to get upset again every month when I make the payment.  Tomorrow I'll contact my insurance agent and see if homeowner's does anything.

Here is the handsome boy, uh, man.  My one and only, he looks just like his late Father.  I am so proud of him, he goes to school full-time and works full-time also, not an easy feat.  Love to you, Evan.
