GETTING SETTLED--ALMOST

WENT TO SAM'S CLUB TODAY AND SPENT 225.65 ON STUFF.TRYING TO GET THINGS READY FOR WHEN SON AND HIS FAMILY GET HERE IN A FEW DAYS. THEIR TWO BOYS EAT A LOT, THEY ARE BOTH FOOTBALL PLAYERS AND HAVE TO KEEP UP THEIR ENERGY, YA KNOW!! THE OLDEST, ALMOST 20 IS 6-5, WEIGHS 230 AND DOESN'T HAVE AN OUNCE OF FAT ON HIM!! THE YOUNGEST IS 14 AND STILL GROWING---WILL SOON BY 6 FEET. WE FEEL LIKE MIDGETS ALONG SIDE THEM---WELL NOT QUITE.

FINALLY GOT MY COMPUTER HOOKED UP TO CABLE. THE CABLE GUY HAD A TIME, BUT FINALLY GOT IT DONE--SEEMS OUR TV AND COMPUTER ARE HOOKED TO TWO DIFFERENT BOXES. IT IS SOOOO NICE TO HAVE IT RUN SO FAST AND BE ABLE TO SEE VIDEOS AND HEAR THINGS AGAIN. CAN'T DO EITHER ON MY DIAL UP IN MN.
RIGHT NOW HAVE TO GO FIX SOMETHING FOR SUPPER.

Thats some big healthy boys you got. I want to get high speed internet. I've been slow for too long now. Haven't been able to get it lined up yet. Always thought I could just get it through my phone company when I wanted but it sounds as if it would not be any fast then what I have. So frustrating.

Hi Barb,
Great to hear you're almost settled and congrats on the high speed!
Best,
Marty
