Ok all is well here. Back online again.

Hi to all, been sick here..trying to sleep it off. more later when I feel better.

Kay I will help you set up Vista to blog from there it is easy. Also we will check out the game feature. If you like online games visit my web site at http://www.geocities.com/vaughnblackshear/ and click on online games at the top of the page. That is where Shelley and I play games.

Just checking in today. Not much going on. It has been raining today. Kay you said you had Vista but you didn't say if you were blogging from Vista. It is real easy to set up to do that. Kay, sounds like you are going to be real busy this weekend. We would love to see you guys in St. Charles. I am still not sure which weekend we are going to Ark. This one or next. Soon though. Greg I recooped most of your loses today. We are still are dealing with MIMS. It is being a dog. It goes with the market and the market has been a real dog this week. Well time to go watch DAYS. blog more later.

Greg, we have made some progress on MIMS, We will hold this stock until we are very close to breaking even or maybe even make some money on it. But for now let's hang tight. It has been coming up in a very bad market which bodes well for any stock. You do not own any other stock at the present time. If the market presents itself tomorrow, and I think it will perhaps I will buy something for you. Proceeding with caution. Good boy Alex. Keep up the good work.

Shelley, good game site. I love it. Played wheel of fortune and checkers. There are some good players out there. Maybe I will get better. I added the game link to my web page main page. It says Play Online Games. Haven't heard from Olivia today. My user name is vblackshear1945 on the game site.

Hello to all, Olivia was sick yesterday. Thought she might have to go to the ER but didn't have to go. She had fever and was throwing up. But got better latter in the evening. Stacey is still here and doing good. We didn't get her tire fixed yet. We will take care of that Monday. Shelley it is a 16. Katie sounds like you are having a good time. That's great! Really glad to hear it. Patsy called her mom yesterday. I think Bob Hinshaw has his surgery tomorrow. Patsy and Stacey are watching Shark attack II I think it is. Stacey is going to the Rex Plex after while. Not much else going on. I am going to pay bills on the computer now. Using Vista to blog. It sure makes it easier. Blog more later.....

Greg, I don't know what to do about the MIMS stock. It is down 23%. Should we hang on? New stock rule...4% and out.

No Kay I didn't ask Brent to Blog. Do you think he would be interested?

We went over to see Olivia today and take Glennda her keys. Olivia is doing fine. She is learning to crawl. She takes both hands and puts under her and moves forward. We also went by moms and I cut Ron's hair and mine. Weather is fine here today. I am printing out the blogs for the day so Patsy can read them.

It has been storming here tonight. The power went out for 2hrs tonight. We had to eat by candle light. It was a good thing the food was just about ready when the power went out. It is still raining here.

Olivia is home now. She is doing fine. Will keep you posted.

Olivia is still in the hospital. We still do not know what she has. We know some things she does not have. I think she will be out of danger tomorrow. She is to come home tomorrow.

They don't know yet what is wrong with Olivia. Alex had some virus that went in to sinus infection on him. They think she got it from him and it went in to blood poisening. She is in isolation. They are testing for meningites just to be safe and cover all basis. They have to watch the cultures grow. will keep you posted.

Shelley I won't be online today. I will be at Greg's. Olivia is in the hospital. I will be keeping Emily and Alex today. Have to go now and get over there. more later.

Greg was here, thanks for the stock info.

Greg here is your stock update for today: I am still holding your 300 shares of MIMS. It was up today. Yesterday I bought you 200 shares of SPLS at $20.339 and sold today for $20.041 for a loss of $73.73 I bought in its place 100 shares of ITRI at $33.569 and sold today at $34.751 for a profit of $104.09....so you have a net gain there of $30.36 for today

End of line... : )

Greg here is your stock status: I still have your MIMS stock. On 5/6 I bought you 300 shares of SHFL at $19.25 and on 5/6 sold it at $19.53 for a profit of $64.82 Today 5/7 I bought you 200 shares of SPLS at $20.339 Not much going on today in the stock market. The Fed did not raise interest rates today so by the end of the day the market may be up somewhat. I called Glennda and was going to tell you about your stocks. I didn't know if you were going to read the blog stuf or not. So anyways glad to see you post. This is a good place to keep up with this stock stuff.

Glad to hear about the 3 silvers. Patsy talked to her mom today also. Can't wait to spend those millions. Glad you guys made it home safe and sound.

Not too much going on here either. I have been working in the yard all day. I have been triming bushes and fallen branches and the like. I helped Lee put up a swing set for his kids. I got mom's lawn mower fixed. I talked to Lee and he wanted me to bring it over to his house to look at it. So I went over to get it and didn't get very far and it stopped on me. I pushed it for a while and then started it and rode for a while. I thought I was going to have a heart attach before I got it over here. As Lee was looking at it ...it dawned on me what the problem was all along. I remembered from year before last that I couldn't screw the gas cap on all the way. So I said it is the gas cap. He looked at it and sure enough the hold in the top was clogged up. It runs like a top now.

Yes Greg is home this week.

Alex is back home now. He was taken to the ER today. They did some tests and still did not really find out anything about why he has fever. I think they think it is viral. He is on antibiotics. He seems to be doing ok.

Greg you bought 300 shares of MIMS at $18.63
