My Loss

For my birthday this June I hinted to James (told him) that I wanted a Kindle. I was pretty positive that I was going to get one and then James made a comment that made me sure he was not getting one. I remember thinking that if he didn't I was going to go out and buy me one. Well, on my birthday I was informed that I was getting an IPad! I was excited because I got all that went with it in addition to my Kindle! I loved it and so did my kids. Well, today, it slipped off of my lap and the screen busted in to a million pieces! I was talking to James on the phone (he is in Tucson) and I broke down. I was missing Utah and really not wanting to be away from family and then I added the loss of the IPad to that. I could not stop crying! I went in to the store where I bought it and found out that we had purchased an accident protection plan. Whew! The only problem was that almost as soon as we had purchased the IPad I realized all of the things that we could not do on it, and our computer was so old it wouldn't do anything. So, today I upgraded my IPad in to a MacBook Pro. I really do like it, but I am not able to have a kindle on it. The one thing I really wanted for my birthday is now gone. All of the things that I can do on this computer are great, but I can't read my books! I was in the middle of a wonderful book, and I am stuck not finishing it! So now, I am telling the kids to hint to James (i.e. tell him) to get me my kindle as a present for Christmas. Keep your fingers crossed!
