Dh decided last week that I needed a new laptop. Okay, who am I to argue with that??? lol His PC downstairs is much faster than what I had, but it didn't bother me because I really didn't notice it because I'm not on the PC much. He was trying to do something on my laptop and was getting very frustrated because it was "taking forever!" So now I have a brand new laptop. Yes, it's faster and the screen is bigger, but other than that I don't know a thing about it except it doesn't have a 3.5" drive. Dh gave me this little mini external hard drive thingy (that looks like a little flashlight that goes on a keychain) and showed me how to save things to it. Dh has also said he's going to get me a remote printing program so I don't have to email or save things and then go downstairs to print (don't have room for a printer on the breakfast bar where the laptop is). So then all I'll have to do is print whatever and run down and get it (without leaving kids up here while I monkey with the PC). Just thought I'd share.

That was awefully nice of him. What a good husband, he must really care about you.

That reminds me of my DH for mothers day he got online and ordered me a whole bunch of clothes from Gap. Soooo sweet! Just thought I would share. Hope you have fun learning more about your new "toy"!

Candice, he has his moments. rofl I told him if the only reason for buying a new one was because mine was slow then we didn't need to because it didn't bother me. He said it would only get worse and we did get the new one at a great price. My dh wouldn't DARE buy me new clothes! First off, he wouldn't know what to buy me, let alone what size. He's be one of those men to go in and hold his hands up at about, oh, breast height and say, with his hands cupped, "She's about this big." roflmbo!

My Dad did the cupping his hands thing when we went Christmas shopping for my Mom once. I died.
It sounds like a great gift that you got. Your dh could give mine a few pointers.
