Why am I smiling? It's because after two days of internet torture, my AOL is up and running again. Whoopie!!!! I am able to instant message, read message boards, and open my journal without freezing. I finally gave up on online help and actually called the broadband number. In a last ditch effort, the guy suggested downloading 9.0 SE.....and voila....my AOL is running like new. So....any of you having the same trouble, go to KW: upgrade and do the same!
Today was spent shopping all day. I am exhausted. I went to two grocery stores, the Oreck store and Wal-Mart. I got the last color tv/dvd player for the car that was in the ad that came out this morning. People were diving for them....but I snuck in and grabbed the remaining one, that had been put on the wrong shelf....GO ME! The kids are quite happy with it, as our trip to NC is only a few weeks away. Now they can travel and watch Joe Dirt at the same time...."It put's the Joe Dirt in the hole...." Man, I love that movie. David Spade is my kind of guy....
We also have a new addition to our backyard. It seems someone decided to get rid of their puppy, and he ended up on our doorstep. He is, I think, a purebread boxer....couldn't be more than 3 months old. He is so sweet....and covered with fleas and some sort of bacterial skin infection. We fed him and gave him water (it's 90+ degrees outside), and he is now asleep on the pool deck. He is the most loving and adorable thing....so tomorrow morning we are taking him to the pound. I'm going to leave my number so that if no one claims/adopts him, they will call me and I'll take him. He has taken quite a shine to wee one, and I think that is why he is on the deck. He watched her jump in the pool, and then kept watch as she swam. I think he thought she may have been in trouble!
Well, now that I have fixed my problem, I am going to go soak in the tub, and get ready for bed. Have a great weekend!

Sounds like a good day and a soak in the tub is the perfect way to end it. Where are you going in NC? ARe you taking the puppy with you - cause you know it's yours now, don't you?!
"he's so adorable and tomorrow I am taking him to the pound." LOL I loved that line for I'm not a dog person! LOL too bad its only temporary! LOL I"m mean!You were a busy little beaver today. I didn't do a freaking thing all day well I did but nothing worth mentioning
Good for you!! AOL is all fixed! I downloaded the new AOL 9.0 Optimized SE the other day (took me a few days to download because I have dialup!) and it is much faster! Who would have ever thought that would happen with dialup! And, I hope you end up keeping your new "friend" since wee one has taken a liking to him already. Sounds like your house will have room for another living creature to love.
Hugs and love, Lisa
P.S.: I have never seen "Joe Dirt", does this make me a bad person because I don't really like David Spade? :(
Does that mean we can call ya a geek now? lol j/k I'm so glad it's up and running. I know it can be frustrating when things don't work properly. I hope you and your family have a fantastic weekend! Love, Kimmie
haha better not let cheesestix see you went to wally walmart! LoL that dvd sure sounds cooL though! Cant pass that up! can you use those in any kind of cars? GO JOE DIRT! I love that movie!!! lol That new movie is coming out with david spade..Its like Dickie Roberts, child star...something like that and it seems soo funny!! And why wont you just keep that o so cute puppy?? you should! -Rae Ann
Glad you got your DVD player. Boxers are such good and loyal dogs! My in-laws have one and he is the BEST! I'd hang on to him if you can!
I'm feeling better now. I was in the hospital again Wed and Thurs with severe dehydration... apparently my body was reacting to an overdose of pain meds, my doc didn't write the script properly! At least now ONLY my throat hurts and it's supposed to, and i'm OK with that. The other stuff I went through was the worst! I should be back in the full swing of things soon, thanks so much for all of your e-hugs and prayers!

I hope you get to keep the dog....he sounds perfect for you!
I'm glad your AOL is finally fixed!
The puppy sounds adorable :)
Ben brought home a portable DVD player from Iraq and we love it!
Have a great weekend.
I'm going to have to upgrade too, nothing but AOL trouble here. Congrats on your purchase and the new pup. Don't take him to the pound! If you do and nobody claims him they'll make you pay to get him back. Just report him to the pound and if nobody claims him he'll be all yours :-)
YAY!! So glad you are up and running again!! I would keep the puppy...especially since it already made a way into your family!! Have a good one!! Julie
Well has anyone called about the pup? How's the weekend goin?
Well I don't know if it's fixed or not. Cause everytime I try to IM you, you disappear. Or maybe you are doing that on purpose. Oh keep the dog, you know you want to.
