I Married a Genius!

I was hoping to fit this in somehow during this morning’s journal entry.

Last night, while recording my son for our National Day of Writing video. Bam! My computer hit the floor. Oh no, I tried not to imagine the damage, my fragile thumb drive was plugged in the back of my computer. Slowly, peering over the bed, I expected the worst. I got it, my thumb drive had broken in two! I tried not to imagine what was on it, for fear of becoming sick to my stomach. How could this have happened? I tried for thirty minutes to put the pieces back together; however, I only made it worst bits of metal kept falling to the bed. My heart sunk deeper into the pit of my stomach. All of my projects, writing assignments gone! Finally, I accepted the fact that I would have to redo most of my writings. I turned my computer off, I couldn’t work any longer. My husband came home around 11:30 last night, and I was still awake moping around the house. I explained to him what had happened. He usually can fix anything, but this I was sure he could not reassemble. The parts were too small, tiny metal pieces were missing, and his fingers are too large to maneuver such small, fragile pieces. Even still, I handed my broken pieces to my husband not actually expecting him to fix it. Guess what, he fixed it with a soldering iron. I was amazed shocked, and relieved. I was able to retrieve all of my work! He never seems to amaze me with his unusual thought-provoking mind-boggling talents.
