I'm quite positive I need a motherboard at this point. Not only do I have the keyboard issue, but my battery will not charge, I have to use it on the power cord. In my research A LOT of people said it was the motherboard on a Dell laptop like mine. Also, I suspect my fan is not working properly causing the laptop to overheat and shut off even doing my best to keep it from doing so. All these components are controlled by the MB right? So now I'm researching replacing the MB but I'm a bit intimidated looking at the guides right now, I just don't have enough knowledge to understand it all. Plus I'm nervous about installing it, it looks a lot more complicated than RAM, internal keyboard, hard drive and wireless cards...all things I have done. So I'm a little bit bummed about doing it, but thank you for validating my suspicion. If I decide I really shouldn't mess with it, BIL has a contact who knows someone who does free diagnosis and charges a flat rate of $35 for repair + amount of needed part. Thats not so bad I guess and the person comes with a good review.

We're going camping for the long weekend! Dazza and the boys have already left in the boat to set up base camp and then D is coming back for me and the rest of the stuff. We haven't been camping since our Xmas holiday, so we've all been looking forward to this weekend.

Glorious sunshine outside. This year's leaflets have all been delivered: did my last delivery stint this morning, 8:30-10:30. Am having a half hour to chill then I'm walking Pilau and after that I am off to my friend Jill's house, for a couple of hours of cider -fuelled chitchat.
All very pleasant and then round it off with Doctor Who. Hurrah!

I am presently relaxing on my deck with a cigar and a Yards Brewery Tavern Ale. Had a nice train ride into the city with the kids today, and visited the Liberty Bell. This is one of the things I had listed on my local tourist list from Cloud's thread. Been here 33 years, and this is the first time I've actually seen the Bell. It was the Kids' first train ride, and they had a great time. In a few minutes here, I'm going to put a DiGiorno Pizza in the oven and hop in the shower. Game of Thrones is on tonight, and I'm hoping to have a friend over to watch it with me. Pretty good day today.
