what's going on?

So there's quite a few explanations as to why it has been so long since I have blogged. I guess the main reason is that our Internet is currently down. We have been going through some frustrating stuff with our Internet. We use Road Runner (Time Warner Cable) for our Internet, and they quarantined our modem, so we can't access the Internet at all at home. The company told us there was a computer bug on our computer (koobface) and it was sending out all this malware through our computer. So we had to get our computer repaired (cleaned off) by a professional, and managed to finally get that done two days ago. So yesterday I tried calling the company to tell them it was done, and they told us they had re-quarantined it! AHHH! I couldn't believe it. I don't know what's going on. I think the most frustrating thing is that I rely on the Internet quite a bit, and my little blackberry, just isn't fast enough. Plus the cable company is still sending us regular bills expecting us to pay for a service we are not actually getting!
So anyways if you're wondering, I am actually using my parent's computer right now, with the hopes that one day in the not so distant future, we will have our Internet service back up and running. Our lives have pretty much been the same as always. Rory just got his wisdom teeth out last weekend, and Ethan went to the dentist for the first time yesterday. He was very good, and from what the dentist saw, there really wasn't anything problematic. YA! We're trying to potty train Ethan too, and it is going SUPER slow. For the most part, Ethan just doesn't have any interest in it whatsoever.
Work is going about the same, Rory is still working graveyard shift, and I've cut my hours back to part-time. I am really getting burned out. When Monday's roll around, it takes EVERYTHING i have to get out of bed and take Ethan to the sitter's. I really miss the days that my only worries were taking care of my family, and my house. Now it seems like there's a billion things that need to get done that never do. Our house is in a constant state of disaster, looking like some kind of nuclear explosion went off in the living room. I would take a picture to prove it, but it would just be too embarrassing! So that's it for now. I will post some pictures when I'm finally back on my own computer. Hope everyone else is doing well!
