Why I've been MIA!

Hello ladies! I'M BACK! OMG it's so very wonderful to be back online! I missed you gals! A week ago Thursday (Apr 3) night we had some very serious lighting and thunderstorms through the night. I mean way bad storms. We didn't think it was gonna be to bad when we went to bed that night. But it was. Of course we didn't unhook anything. Because it take up to two days to get our DSL hooked back up. So hubby being that last on that night just left everything hooked up. Woke up the next morning came in here where the computer was. And we had absolutely no DSL. It got fried. Found this out when hubby tore apart the DSL box. My PC was totally fine but not the DSL. We had everything plugged up to the same outlet. But only our DSL got hit. Go figure! Hubby bought two DSL modems off EBAY. Took them 4 days to get here after buying them. Worked on them and called CenturyTel for some numbers and the guy was a complete JERK said we didn't need any numbers. Still wouldn't work. So gave up. Well yesterday hubby called back and a lady gave us the numbers we needed to get it working. And VIOLA it works. So the guy was a complete JERK! So here I am BACK! I'm so way behind! I will get caught up I hope! And let me tell you its so wonderful to be back online! I just can't tell you. I've been so bored out of my mind! LOL!! HUGS TO ALL OF YOU!
