I.T. crash! No phone and no lap top!

On the mend :)  I have shaken off the nausea and started eating properly again.  Sleep remains a priority.  My mum took me to Aldi (big day out!).

My phone (which was already seriously "under the weather"), has gone barking mad!  It jumps about like someone else is using it.  The screen changes from the welcome page, to someone's address, to music download etc.  It is scarily fast, and scary to see.  For a few moments this morning, I managed to copy all my data onto my lap top.   Phew!

Short lived relief!  My laptop has now conked out.  As I am writing this, I am tensely wondering if my Blackberry has infected my computer.  I could not access the internet, and my screen said it was a problem with Norton.  Martha's laptop takes me to Norton help line number.  An hour long call later (which was free), I discover that the phone operator (in India) is not from Norton, but ESURE, and after a thorough diagnosis of my computer, I have loads of things wrong with it.  Earlier in our friendly conversation (which included me sharing that I had a brain tumour), I thought that they were Norton and they were going to fix it; now, I have been given a large bill by ESURE.  I declined of course.  Mildy satisfied to have a printed diagnosis of computer ailments, I am also really annoyed that I have wasted my time.  My computer is currently dead.  I couldn't even open microsoft word.  I do know someone who can help me.

I am dependent on Martha's computer, for now.  Do not text me or use my mobile number.  Use my email address and home phone number.  Thanks loads.

Time for bed
Good night and have a good week ahead
love you all
