Just a quick update on the computer mess.. we still don't know the full extent of damage and probably won't for awhile with Greg working so much.. he's the hardware guy, I'm strictly programming lol The major thing we are concerned about is hardware damage, things are all kinds of squirrelly with that machine :( We didn't have a firewall on that computer until after the first hack(that we knew of) which got interrupted when I got a message from norton and I disconnected instantly..we then installed one and have had a ton of hack notices since then. In all my years online nothing like this has ever happened..what has me so "disturbed" tho is the chance that this might be someone I "know"... I am trying to look past this and see only the good things about being online, I haven't made a decision yet on what to do...I do know that I miss everyone and being able to visit everyone and have some giggles.. say a prayer for me ladies! and hopefully I can get things fixed and then be able to start using the computer without being so blasted scared of what might happen.

This is just a quick post to let ya'll know that I am battling some personal problems at the moment. Someone has hacked my main computer system..and we don't know how much damage has been done at this point. I am at my breaking point here and considering leaving the net. I will post again soon when I know how much damage has been done and can put things in perspective.

BRR! lol sounds rather out of place doesn't it? It was in the 30's this morning when I took 'Taye to school and after getting used to high 40's to 50's the kids were convinced they were gonna freeze lol
I've spent the majority of the day trying to change graphics for the blog, but haven't finished yet *sigh* just be glad I do that part off-line cause it has been a huge mess lol
My "Mushy" is home tonight sick :( I hate when he's sick and he is so good at those "aww poor me" faces..hmm wonder where he learned that lol
Sorry this is such a short post but it's past 'Taye's bedtime and she won't go to bed so I've gotta go have the "cause I said so!" fight with her
Have a great Thursday ladies!Posted by Aretha @ 09:18 PM CST [Link]

What a day! It started off wrong when I bolted out of the bed at 3am having nightmares. Then Greg called and wanted me to find some truck paper, according to einstein it was on top of the microwave, I went and looked and it wasn't there! This then gave him the impression that he could blame me for losing it. I ended up finding what he wanted in the drawer under the microwave! I tell ya no court would convict me if I beat him senseless lol I'd be using "the idiot defense"..I married an idiot and it finally drove me over the edge lol
I've been on a graphic mission today.. I've been wanting to redecorate the blog for quite awhile now but nothing is grabbing me. I found all kinds of cute graphics but nothing that screams "this is it" lol sounds crazy i know, I guess maybe I'm just in a picky mood lately.
I'm gonna call it a night and go back to bed, little after 8 can you believe this lol, and do the visits tomorrow, I'm just plumb tuckered tonight.
Have a wonderful Wednesday!Posted by Aretha @ 08:16 PM CST [Link]

Hope everyone had a wonderful Easter! It was pretty uneventful here, we gave the kids their stuff on Saturday, because we expected company yesterday. I can't get my mind to grasp that today is Monday for some reason. Unfortunately I'll have to grasp school tomorrow lol Part of me will be so glad when school is out but then there will be non-stop fights at least during school I get a small break from it lol.
I got the new lap-top today,and it's gonna take some getting used to, my nails are so long I have twice as many typos as I usually do so it feels like it takes forever to accomplish anything lol but it looks like it's gonna come in real handy ;) I havedn't felt real swift today but even tho I'm being a "chair potato" I can still blog so that is definitely a huge plus for me!
I'm gonna try to make some visits before I have to get to bed so I can get up in the morning, I am sooo not a morning person lol
Have a great Tuesday!Posted by Aretha @ 08:51 PM CST [Link]

Omg! Can you believe I am posting 2 days in a row? lol It's been a decent day so far health-wise so I thought I'd try blogging. Let's see what all is new here......not alot actually lol
Chantaye won the most improved student award a couple weeks ago. We took the kids to an egg-hunt at Nissan last weekend, Chantaye loaded up on the candy and such and Bradley won a prize, Angela stayed with mom because there was just no way I could handle all 3 especially in that heat, it was over 70 that day so I was having a total melt-down lol
My "down-time" has been spent reading like crazy, I've always been a total book-worm but I spend so much time on the computer I seldom read anymore, I missed it more than I realized. We're trying to decide where to go on vacation now if I'm up to it, I'd love to take off to the Caribbean but there's no way to get there except fly and I've never been on a plane and said I never would be lol so basically we are back to Florida, Missouri (Precious Moments Chapel) or staying here and doing "day-trips" to Alabama and places like that.
I am gonna do my best to make some visits tonight, I can't promise I will get to everyone but I am determined to visit most. Have a wonderful Friday ladies!Posted by Aretha @ 07:27 PM CST [Link]

I really am sorry I haven't posted before now, and hope ya'll will forgive me!
Things have just overwhelmed me lately, there are a few things going on in my mom's family that I am trying to help her deal with and with my health going down hill it's just been really hard for me to do anything. Greg has ordered me a lap-top and it should be here in about a week so that I can still have my net time and get back to visiting even on those days that I can't stay up for long at a time.
I wish I had the words to say thank you and let each one of you know how very much i appreciate all the comments & tags! Sending lots of thoughts and huggs to all of you for being so sweet & patient with me!!Posted by Aretha @ 09:55 PM CST [Link]

I'm sorry it's been so long since I've been bloggin'. Chantaye is better now tho she is still fighting the sneezes and sniffles. I have been sick myself is why I haven't been bloggin' lately. I'm hoping to be back to normal soon and then be able to visit and catch up on everything. Please forgive me for not updating sooner, but there have been days when I haven't felt like sitting up :(
I'll be visiting soon tho!
