A new toy.

Oh my, I have stepped into the age of technology. I was almost there with our laptop and flat-screen t.v., but I took the final leap and have managed to borrow my brother-in-law's IPOD (they have four so although it will not be mine, I am allowed to use it for an indefinite amount of time!)I love it already, and the songs on it are a lot of my personal favorites (gotta love Miss Saigon, Les Miserables,and Hair Spray!) and so many others. Now if I can just figure out how to use it and download music!
P.S. We got hit with a whammy today: our precious Subaru is going to cost $1500 to fix! Stupid head gasket! Ouch, it is going to hurt big time!!!! I think we will hold off on looking at houses for awhile because although it does not clean out our savings, it seriously is denting it big-time! I was slightly embittered. We have been through so much. We have already paid off past medical bills for 2006 and 2007, that cost us a little around $9000 for those two years. And then not having our kids but still having to pay the medical bills (there should be a rule that if your child passes while at the hospital, they should have to eat the cost.) I know, wishful thinking. I even cried out to Mike today, in pure frustration that things seem to NEVER go our way. Now this is not completely true, but it seems like the Lord likes to test us, usually to the point of breaking. So I am putting it out there, we are ready for our break. I am tired of broken cars, broken bodies dealing with infertility and birth defects. Even broken promises of adoption that do not end happily. So Heavenly Father, please bless us. We need some happy beginnings and endings right now.
