Menu Plan Monday March 31st

I am seriously about ready to break up with electronics!

I don’t get it, why are they out to ruin me?

First: my portable external hard drive jumps of my computer and refuses to be seen by said computer.

I finally get the computer to acknowledge it and the computer wants to reformat it.  To which I said ‘no way!’  So I do a ‘scandisk’ check and leave it over night.  Only to come back and find that it went from a NTFS drive to a RAW drive!  What??

Second: I go to turn my computer on and it tells me my system file is corrupt and I need to re-install the OS.  But as it turns out the hard drive won’t even spin, so it is kaput.

Third: (and this was today) my other external hard drive (not portable) is not getting power.  After trying a different power cord I hear a clicking sound and no disk spinning.

 

Yes, yes.  Everyone tells me that I needed to sign up for a cloud service, but right now I can’t afford the size that I need.

I guess I should be happy this happened after Ian’s party and I was able to make all his decorations, but now I can’t access the pictures (don’t worry they are still on my camera’s memory stick).

But this is really getting ridiculous.

I JUST WANT SOMETHING TO WORK!

 

OK. rant over, here is what I am hopefully going to be making for dinner this week.

Mon: Tacos

Tue: Three Cheese Ziti with Chicken Casserole 

Wed: Meatloaf with red potatoes (never made this last week)

Thr: Slow Cooker Parmesan Honey Pork Roast Recipe with mashed potatoes

Fri: Leftovers

Happy Meal Plan Monday!

The sun is shining here in my part of the world.  It was a beautiful weekend and I am making huge progress on the decorations for Ian’s party.

His party is this coming Saturday, I can’t believe I have a four year-old!  I still have lots and lots to do before then, so I am hoping to make some easy, simple dinners this week.

We make Birthday Cake Pancakes for the kids on their birthday.  Because…welllll…it’s their birthday.  And if you have tried them you would understand.

Tue: Meatloaf with red potatoes

Wed: Slow Cooker Zesty Italian Chicken

Thr: Tacos with Spanish rice

Fri: Party Prep
