    So...

    I keep forgetting to update my xanga site whenever I write a new post on my other blog. And I haven't updated my other blog for awhile, either. I've been sick, etc. I'm sorry to those of you whose comments I haven't replied to and whose blogs I haven't commented on for awhile. I'm trying to pull my act together again! Hope to hear from you!

    Camera!!!!!

    [Written on Sat. night]

       I’m at my friend Erin’s house right now, but I wanted to let everyone know that I have a new camera! As many of you know, mine was stolen during the quiz trip to Kentucky. I shopped around for awhile and finally narrowed it down to two cameras. A Sony Cybershot and a Kodak Easyshare. After some thought, I decided on the Easyshare because it cost less and I liked the look a bit better. So this afternoon I went into a Best Buy with Erin. She had told me that they were going out of business and I went in with her to see if they had any special deals. We got in and discovered that they were not going out of business, but I got some questions answered and was wishing that I could just go ahead and get the camera, but I new that it was impossible. So I turned around to go and there was an associate who had just walked up behind me. I jumped a little and he apologized and said, “You looking to buy a camera?” “I wish.” “Well, I usually work in computers, but what’re you looking at?” “The Kodak here.” “Oh, really? If you want something with the same options for less money (and which I personally like better) there’s the Sony.” He stepped over a little bit and out of all of the Sony cameras, he picked the cybershot that I had been looking at! “It’s on sale until we close tonight.” I looked: $50 off the original price. I asked some more questions. He didn’t have all of the answers because he works in computers, but he looked up the information that he didn’t know. Well, I don’t carry money with me most of the time, and basically never more than $10, but Mom and Dad were in town and they have credit cards, checks, etc. So I borrowed Erin’s cell phone and called them to ask them to stop by Best Buy and get the camera. :D So my new camera is at home with my family and I’m here at Erin’s… dying to see it!!!!!!!!!!!! LOL I am SO happy, though! I also got a memory stick. I think Dad told me that it was $30 off! So I hope that everything is really working out as well as I think it is. I keep thinking that something is going to be wrong just because I’ve never handled the camera. lol There’s faith for you!

    Anyhow… I need to get going. Mom wanted me to be sure that I get into bed in good time since we have to be at church in the morning. It’s about an hour from Erin’s.

    Pictures will follow!!!!!!

    Happy Thanksgiving!!

    Hey, ya’ll! I hope that your Thanksgiving was wonderful! Mine was pretty good. I’ll share some pics in just  a minute. First I’ll let ya’ll know what’s going on with the giveaway. We have a winner! My method of choosing the winner was about as random as it gets. I wrote all SIX names down on slips of paper, shook the papers, and picked one. Each of the girls who entered only had a 16.7% chance of winning, so that’s not much. Anyhow, I hope to get the CD and book in the mail next week.

    Yesterday was not a good camera day for me. lol *sigh* I kept forgetting to get the camera out! :( Thanks to Erica, though, for letting me keep borrowing her camera. Hopefully I’ll be able to get one soon…

    OKAY… so no smile pictures! How about just a pic of him taking a drink?

    Now for the disturbing news: After all of my reminding myself and being reminded by others that we wanted to take pics of our feast… We forgot! :( My day wasn’t ruined, but I was still pretty mad.

    Anyhow. I had a great day. We finished off the day by watching Facing the Giants and playing games.

    Hope your day was as good as mine!
