BIRTHDAYS, COMPUTERS AND BRAKES

Well, Hello, everyone! It's been a while since I have posted. Things have been a little crazy (Hurray for family life! :-)!)
Samuel had a birthday on September 22. He turned six years old. Happy birthday to my youngest son! We love him so much. He was our "surprise" baby, but he was the best "surprise" that God could ever give me!
My main computer died when the current came back on after Hurricane Irene, probably due to the surge from being off so long. Yes, I had a surge protector on it (that was my brother's first question). The problem is that it was a cheaper surge protector. Guess you get what you pay for in some things. :-( ! So, anyway, I had gone back to using my laptop, which was super slow. I have not really been able to do much computer wise. I praise the Lord, though, because my youngest brother is now looking at my main computer (I have been blessed with "computer smart" brothers!). Hopefully I will have it back up and running very soon. He also has helped me clean up my laptop, so that is running alot better now.
Well, Friday night, my brake light came on in our van. When the brake fluid was checked, it was low. So, my husband put more fluid in. When I got back in the van Sunday morning, the brake light was still on. "Oh, no!", I thought. I left the van with my husband today, and drove our trusty back up car, the 1996 Thunderbird. Whoo-Hoo! First of all, I have to say that I am VERY thankful that we still have this car. It is very old and full of miles, but it still gets us where we need to go in a pinch. But... If anyone knows what its like to go from a mini-van to a two door car when you have children, you know where I am coming from when I say, "Whoo-Hoo!".
I got a call from my husband a little bit ago, and he told me that it is the master cylinder. Then, he just calls me a few minutes ago and tells me that there is antifreeze in the carport where the van sits. So, there is something else for the mechanic to look at. But, God is good! Perhaps there are a few problems that need to be taken care of right now while the van is in the garage. We'll see!
Please keep us in your prayers as we have revival at church this week, as well!
Have a wonderful and blessed day!
The Boyds :-)
