You gotta get that netbook fixed! I love Isabella's grin in the header photo on your blog. Elliot's expression looks like he's thinking, "Come on, mom ...." and Anastasia juggling a wailing Francesca (I still can't figure out how she manages not to drop her), .... Victoria's birthday chocolate cake picture, and Catherine and the dog food bag ... your pictures truly round out the hilarious stories in the best way!!!! I still say yours must be a wonderful home to live in. Between your children being such characters and you being so easy-going (hiding from them :) ..... ) it's like watching a fun movie, keeping up with how you are doing.conniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08675708151247378703noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6480927676896809475.post-7736259604223245602011-08-22T10:09:05.471-07:002011-08-22T10:09:05.471-07:00:'( So sorry that happened!

That type of damage isn't covered by Apple Care and I nearly expired when I thought I'd ruined my investment! <br /><br />You want to disconnect any power source and remove the battery ASAP. (I also removed the hard drive) Then you need to get the fluid out. Dry rice is a good choice. Put it in a box or bag or of it and it will pull out the moisture. if you do dry with a hair dryer, keep it on low and you'll probably need to do it a few times. Keeping it upside down to let the liquid go the way it came in is good too. <br /><br />It took about 10 days before I even ATTEMPTED to connect power to it again and then another week or so before it stopped being weird. The only ill effect was the keys sounding a little crunchy for a little while, and the backlit keyboard became quite dim. Otherwise, I've had no problems with it since and this was 2 years ago. <br /><br />Eek good luck! <br /><br />I'd leave it alone for a while and not try testing it out for at least a week or so. but you never know. I had a friend spill a piping hot plate of spaghetti on his macbook and it blacked out but then recovered about a week later too!<br /><br />The lesson I learned was that the convenience of a laptop does not mean it should be used whilst eating dinner especially while in bed on a bouncy mattress....lol.Jae Mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12462194814094713535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6480927676896809475.post-39823006674965047042011-08-21T19:56:01.412-07:002011-08-21T19:56:01.412-07:00Ah those little reminders the Lord gives that all ...Ah those little reminders the Lord gives that all we have comes from Him. I know them all too well. The more I try to say: Mine, mine, mine; the more He reminds me that nothing I have is mine. It all comes from Him. <br />I recently replaced my new camera after baby dropped it in the trash can & we figured it out days too late. I had to get over it and remind myself that I can replace the camera; can't replace my sweet baby. :)Gingerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10657460163379486396noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6480927676896809475.post-78155822303452742042011-08-21T18:55:53.952-07:002011-08-21T18:55:53.952-07:00Oh No!!!

Mine needs to stay charging now and I have to rig the cord so the charger actually works.Too much blogging plus things like children tossing it off the bed, table, etc...

Take out the battery and take apart any parts that come off easily, lay it open and bury it part way down in a bowl/box of rice.
