SLOW COMPUTER AND UNWANTED GUEST

I'm still here. I have been having some computer problems. It has been moving verrrry slow or not at all. I think I need to get a new computer. I have so much more to post and I haven't been able to visit any of my friends blogs due to this slow moving and getting frozen on my computer board. It took me 30 min. just to be able to post this entry. arrrgh!
We are having to prepare for our unwanted guest, Mr. Hurricane Ike. I was able to get the needed items. We plan to ride this one out. Last time it took us forever to get to San Antonio. We do not want to get stuck in that long line on IH-10 out of here. It was a good thing that we went to the store in town this morning as on the way back home the DPS and other law inforcement personnel road blocked Hwy 36 into downtown Rosenberg . I hope we don't get very high winds, we have an enormous tree right out side our back porch, if it falls it will either be on top of our house or the garage. I still have lots of more work in the morning moving furniture and plants into the garage. Well, I will close for know, keep our state of Texas in prayer.
