Pondering and Planning...

Oh my gosh!!  Two posts in one week?!  What is going on here??

Well, I happen to be off work for a week (don't get worried.  I took it off).  And there's a lot going on.

Today we found out that we're having a boy.  I couldn't be more excited.  I know I wouldn't have been disappointed if he were a girl, but I sort of knew he was a boy and it would have been strange to have him turn out not to be.  And he's got all the right parts and organs and they're all the right size and everything.  Now I can start shopping for him.

But that's not what this post is about, as fantastic news as it is.  The real topic is much more unexpected.

After much deliberation, I have decided to sell my computer.

I've had my own computer for at least 10 years and now I'm giving it up.  I know it sounds crazy, but there are several sane reasons for my decision though:

1) I don't use my computer all that much anymore except to browse the web, check email, chat with friends online.  All of these things I can do with my phone or my 10 year old iBook laptop which has never had anything go wrong with it.
2) Steve is still keeping his computer so if I absolutely need one which does more than my old little lappy, I can use his.
3) It's much easier to fit 1 desk with 1 computer in the living room rather than 2 desks and 2 computers.  English houses aren't that big you know.  So now our second bedroom will be the nursery!
4) I'm going to use the money to buy Steve and I an iPad2!!

So you see, it's not a crazy decision.  It's very well thought out and made for the right reasons.  I do love my gorgeous iMac, but I'd rather have an iPad2 and a nursery for the baby.

I'd better do this quickly though.  Sounds like the iPad2 stocks are going to be a bit low in the near future.
