I WON!
Thursday, May 28, 2009
I started the day thinking it would be a great idea to move my computer from one side of my desk to the other. My big old desk is great for the kids to color at sitting opposite of me, but when I am blogging {there is a slim chance I might be doing something else on my computer} my back is to them. I began by cleaning my office. I still had some stuff to put away from unpacking the suitcases and laundry baskets tend to make an appearance for some strange reason. I washed everything down and got rid of all of the accumulated dust. I unplugged cords, scooted the PC and then tried rewiring everything with my cable cord & box. I failed! I had to move everything back because the cords were too short. Everything looked so nice and clean that I kept at it and tried blowing all of the dust and bits of paper/garbage out of my keyboard with canned air. I could still see gunk down in between the keys and took my staple remover to the keys: Fortunately I had enough sense to snap some pictures of the order of the keys so that I could put them back in place. I thought I knew exactly where each piece belongs, I can type pretty fast... But I did have to look at my snap shots to get all of the keys that aren't numbers or part of the alphabet in the right spot!

I need to do this! Our keyboard is completely disgusting. Maybe I should just buy a new keyboard.
I would have never thought to take a picture, I would have been stuck guessing!
