Brian and I were in Big Lots Tuesday night and after we had checked out with our measly purchases, I took a gander at the locked cases around from the register. Here they had two different kinds of MP3 players for $24 and $40. My friend had recommended one over an i*pod as it was easier to download music (snicker snicker-more later). So I opted for the higher priced one because it had a bigger display screen. You can download photos and videos too. So I got home and while we were trying to get the DVD player to work (always remember to change the channel on the tv!), I looked at music on A*mazon and downloader software. Today I bought some music and the software wouldn’t download the songs to our computer. I called A*mazon twice. The first guy, was definitely an Indian (sounded like the guy from Heroes) and really didn’t help. The second guy, Teddy was a gem. Told me to get rid of the software and download right to our computer. It worked! So I have 20 songs and lots of space left on it. I don’t care for the earbuds-they hurt my ears. I need to get padded ones. And I need a case too. This was an early anniversary gift.
I bought this little Vera Bradley case for my player at eBags (great site)
Keep Bri in your thoughts as he is suffering from insomnia really bad lately. He had that doctor visit last month and didn’t have any problems from his x-ray and bloodwork. He worries so much.
I may be seeing my mom tomorrow.

Wishing Brian well, Dianne!
I sympathize with Brian, it’s certainly no fun to have insomnia! I go through that every once in a while and no matter what I do or try, it stays for a couple of weeks. Right now I’m only getting about 4 hours of sleep before I wake up and can’t fall back asleep. Just a few weeks ago I was sleeping 8 to 10 hours a night so go figure! lol
Glad you were able to get help in how to download the music to your MP3 player. They’re great little gadgets….I bought myself an iPod last year and have a lot of my favourite songs downloaded on it, just haven’t used it much lately, though. I tend to use it more in the summer time while I’m gardening:-) Such a darling case you found for your player!! xoxo
Brian may need an antianxiety to help if it’s the worry that’s keeping him awake at night. And he may be resistant to it, but perhaps something like journaling could help him as well. If he writes down the things he’s worried about, maybe that would help him let some of them go?
Glad you got yourself an mp3 player – they’re great! The ear buds irritated my ears too, but the Skull Candy earphones are so much better.
