My new laptop arrives today, been a long wait for it.

Sometime today, the courier company is supposed to deliver my laptop to my boss's house. I've been waiting a couple of weeks for it to arrive and was hoping that it was with her new computer that she got last week, but it wasn't. So I've had to wait patiently for mine to arrive and haven't been so patient. This old laptop has been giving me so much trouble lately, it's why I decided to buy a new one instead of fussing with this one. My internet speeds have been horrible, my wireless card has been to blame for that, and pages weren't loading even when my speeds were good. I had that issue this morning too before my appointment at the hospital. I was hoping it would be fine when I got home and it was. But the new laptop will be better for me, more memory, larger hard drive and once we go for a different internet provider, I'll be able to watch shows online, which I can't do with this one. The problem with this one is that it continually buffers any video, it will not play consistently, and I can't watch anything that way. Often times, videos will completely freeze up on me and become useless to me. Hopefully my new laptop comes in soon, I can't wait to get it going.

I hope everything goes smoothly and it was a good investment. It is always nice to get something that is new and makes life better.

I wish I could have a new laptop also. This time I like smaller one like a notebook or an android or ipad. I also encountered problems with my old laptop. Actually its not that old since I got it just a year ago. The problem is I can't used it outside with a need to use the charger. Meaning every time I will use it I need to have a charger plugged. The battery is defective already and it's not that easy to buy one since it's very expensive. Anyhow I am hoping too that our new laptop will come soon. God bless!
