Back in action!

WOW I don't even know where to start.....

My laptop was declared dead on December 10th at 3:43 p.m. Services were held, and many tears were shed!

What could I do two weeks before Christmas? No way could I afford a new one!

(Until you have been without you cannot comprehend the pain!)

Fast forward to Christmas morning.......

When the love of my life surprised me with not only a brand new computer but also a digital camera of a caliber I wouldn't have dreamed of owning! It was wonderful, I felt like one of the kids! (and I think a couple of them were jealous!)

I have a lot of work ahead of me, trying to salvage some of the thousands of pics on my old hard drive, and mp3s, etc. Not to mention learning how to use my amazing camera. I am going to enjoy every minute! I'm sure this is not the last you have heard of this, keep your eyes open ...

I will be posting pics very soon and very often!

The worst thing ever...

Okay anyone who knows me knows I'm a little prone to exaggeration! But this is serious!! My best friend in the whole world died last week. Yes you guessed it. ......

MY COMPUTER!

I know, I know, a little perspective here. It's just that we start to take for granted how easy some things have become. If I wanted to know what time the Gateway closed I could know in 5 min. If I wanted to know exactly how much money was in my checking account I knew immediately. kids grades no problem, the square root of pie.... you name it. So if you have been wondering why I haven't been posting (and I hope you have!) it's because a nasty, mean, virus has claimed my computer. Computek is trying to resurrect it as we speak. In the mean time this post is courtesy of MJ's old faith full T-rex computer. Slower than cold tar!!

(again slight exaggeration)

So I will not be posting too frequently until I get my friend back, please pray for her, and me!

Is the check in the mail?......

Colby~ "Mom is that Jakers on the cat food bag?"

Mom~ " It sure looks like it!"

Colby~ " Did we get any money for that?" "cuz don't you think we should get paid for our cat being on the bag of food that all the cats eat?"

That's my Colby always good for a laugh!

*You have to admit it is a pretty close match!

Please not yet!!

I'm am truly sorry to all you Christmas Freaks.......

but PLEASE can't you just wait until Nov. 28th?

I know I know I'm a hypocrite! Me blinging out my blog for Halloween A.S.A.P

I'm just not ready for the lights and music and blow up teddy bears on peoples lawns, I get an ulcer just thinking about it! Christmas is supposed to be such a joy full time of year and yet I mostly feel stressed! Yes Me! Mrs. doesn't worry about anything, but for some reason Christmas stresses me out! Sooo much pressure.....

Deep Breathes!!

Serenity now, serenity now.

It's alright my heart rate is returning to normal. (I think?)

So please if you feel the need to Christmas out your blog,

or yard, or life please let me know so I can avoid it at all cost!

I know "deep seeded issues!"

I lost a baby that would be 5 years old this November,

I lost my mom December 29th 2005,

I know this has added to my feelings, did I forget to mention the cold? (not a big fan!)

1. Hot Chocolate

2. Sitting by the fire.

3. Christmas music (AFTER NOV. 28TH)

4. warm cuddly socks.

I only wrote this post to say one thing...

BAH HUMBUG!!

* Sorry Jeni I Know you are already in full Christmas mode so I will be back to visit your blog on Nov. 28th! lol

From August to October the Kimber household kind of revolves around football season.

I love every minut of it!!

I know I would be involved in anything they choose to do but I have to admit I love football.

Well this season has come to an end with some wins and some losses but with lots of lessons learned. Brennons team had their annual banquet and Brennon received the award for.....

Littlest Big Man!

Explanation..... Smallest player on the team, but BIG contributor to the team.

I'm Very Proud of you Brennon!

Our fab Halloween.......

Heather Kimber political corespondant for her own blog...

I am what you would call a history buff I love all things past. I don't care if it is American history or ancient history I am fascinated by it all. And now I am part of something that will be talked about and written about for the rest of time!

When I first saw Barack Obama on Opera a few years ago I was impressed! He was very down to earth and likable. I loved the way he interacted with his wife, you could tell her opinion was important to him (I don't think you can fake that). He was humble and charismatic. I will admit I did not vote for him. I worry what will happen in our country if liberal views take over our government! But I Am open minded and maybe this is what our country needs to inspire us to be patriotic and have hope & faith in our country and government. So our new president has my full support (until he screws up!) j.k. Good luck Barack and God Bless the USA!

I also need to say I was soooo impress by how gracious John McCain was in his speech. Talk about a man who truly loves his country and sacrificed as much as anyone can for it. Well fought McCain, good luck wherever you choose to go now! Thank you

Ok almost done but I do have to mention Sarah Pallin YOU GO GIRL! personally I can't imagine trying to be a wife, mother of five (yes I can imagine this part) and Vice president of the USA WOW mind blowing!! I don't think we have seen the last of her!
