Good Friday Mornin' Yall,

I do hope that everyone had a great Thursday and ready to start a new day. It is currently 33 degrees with a windchill of 27 degrees. The winds are out of the North Northwest at 7mph. I don't know if we got anymore freezing rain last night or not. I haven't been up very long and haven't looked out. We had been under a Freezing Rain Advisory until noon yesterday and it was lifted. Later on in the evening, they upgraded us to an Ice Storm Warning until 6:00a.m. It has been lifted now. We did get some freezing rain and drizzle last night before I had gone to bed. It's suppose to be a cloudy day and on the chilly side here today.

I want to let everyone know that my DH and his Uncle made it home safely yesterday around 5:15p.m. I was so very glad to see him. He had called me yesterday afternoon around 2:00p.m. and said they were in West Plains, MO. He said his Uncle had a time driving up in Missouri yesterday. He went thru alot of Ice and when they got home yesterday evening, there was still alot of Ice on their truck. "PRAISE GOD" for another answered prayer. "THANK YOU" all for the prayers you said for their safety. I always appreciate them very much. Today, my DH has to go to Memphis to pick up their Salt Lake City load and then he will come back home. I know that my DH and his Uncle are very good and safe driver's, but it's the other person you have to watch out for. That is the part that worries me so much.

I was in and out of bed most of the day yesterday. Tis that ugly time of the month for me. I have to take my PMS pills about every 4 to 5 hours to keep me from cramping and they tend to make me a little sleepy. I usually have to do this for the first 3 or 4 days. As soon as our insurance kicks in, I'm going to check into having one of those hysterectomies. I may have to wait till Summer to have it done, so the girls will be out of School and my Parents can take care of them. But my DH said we are going to get it done. He hates seeing me so miserable like this each month. I hate being this miserable as well.

The girls had their after School Tutoring yesterday after School. They got home around 4:45p.m. and I told them their Daddy would be home in a little bit. When Daddy did get home the girls told them they wanted to go out to eat since I wasn't feeling good. So, we all loaded up and went up to Backwoods BBQ here in town. The lady that owns the place is always joking around with our girls. Her husband came in there while we were eating and he got to talking about computers. He told my DH that he works on computers and rebuilds them and all that kind of good stuff. Two years ago, my DH had bought him a laptop at Wal-Mart to use in his truck to keep track of his loads and things like that. It quit on him back in the early Fall. When we bought the computer, we had bought one of those extended warranties to go along with it. I have been trying for nearly 2 months now to find out what had to be done about it and trying to get it fixed for him. So, my DH came back to the house and got his laptop and brought it back up to where we were at and him and the guy was talking about what was wrong with it. Anyway, I'm not computer literate and don't understand any of that computer mumbo jumbo, LOL, but he told my DH he could fix it for $75.00. Hubby gave him the go ahead to fix it and when we got home last night he called my hubby and told him he would have it fixed later today. So, my hubby will be glad of that and can take it out with him when he leaves out Sunday morning. My DH also told me that I could buy one of the re-built computers for myself. I was like, WOW. Hubby knows mine is outdated and all and he said we would try to get me one later on, but he told me last night to just buy one from this guy. He has several at his house, so we are planning on going out there sometime on Saturday to look at them. He has a couple that are Window's Vista Basic and Window's Vista Premium. I don't know the first thing about Window's Vista, but I'm sure I can learn and figure it out. All I need a computer for anyway is to get on the internet and check emails and blog. LOL. So, who knows, I may have me a new computer within the next month or so. Yall remember back at the end of December when I said I was going to get a Digital Camera, well we had to put that on the back burner due to our banking problems. Last weekend when me and my DH was gone out to eat, we were talking about the Digital Camera. Our first plan was to get everyone something with those coupons, but hubby told me to just get the camera for right now. The one that I had picked out previously, they were out of them now. So, when we came back home, I got online to see the Digital Camera's again and like i said, they were sold out of the one I had previously wanted. This is the one I will be getting now. It is a Fujifilm FinePix E900 9MP Digital Camera. Here is a litte information on the Digital Camera.

Packing a powerful 9MP Super CCD HR sensorthe highest resolution available in a consumer digital camerathe E900 combines pointandshoot ease and photographic essentials such as image quality, form factor, and powerful feature sets including manual controls.

The builtin AntiBlur program suppresses any blurring from a shaky camera, while the High Speed Shooting Mode means you always get the shot, no matter how fast the subject is moving.
It is the next to the top of the line that the Flying J Store had. So, I had to wait till Tuesday to send off for it since the Post Office was closed on Monday. It only costed me $9.45 plus the postage of course. So, I don't think that's too bad of a deal. I don't know much about these high-tech camera's, but I'm sure I will learn tho. I just need it to take pictures and upload them to my computer and have some better pictures for my blog. Also, the guy that I'm going to buy my computer from said he would install the software from the Camera for me. I'm hoping to have my new Camera in a couple of weeks. It had to be mailed somewhere in Utah, so since I mailed it off Tuesday, it should be here withing a couple of weeks. I am really excited about getting this new Camera. My DH done and told me that I could carry the Camera everywhere with me so I can share pictures with everyone. LOL. He does know me well and he knows how I enjoy blogging. I LOVE YOU my DH and "THANK YOU" so much for what you do for me and the girls. Well, guess that's about all for this Friday. I don't think I will be posting anymore until Sunday. I will be in and out of bed today and tomorrow for the most part. When I'm not in bed, I will be enjoying my time with my DH. We don't have anything planned for this weekend. We will probably sit around and watch t.v. or maybe even rent some movies. I apologize for not getting around to visit everyone yesterday, but I was so miserable. I'll try my best to get around to everyone today if I feel like it. I will be checking in with everyone at some point this weekend, but my new post won't be until probably Sunday. Take care my friends and have a great day/weekend. May God Bless You and Yours.

LOVE & HUGS,
