Okay...so I feel like I'm getting ready to ask a few stupid questions but I don't know who else to ask. lol

Seems like about once or twice a week my phone just wigs out, that's the only term I can come up with to explain it. It works extra slow, when I got to unlock it it takes a really long time, it quits letting me know when I get new emails or messages or when I get a FB notification the little red star shows up on the FB app but when I go to it I don't have any notifications, I have to go to the mobile site to get my message. The FB thing isn't a huge issue that's just a minor annoyance. I power my phone off and power it back on, doesn't work. So I do a hard reset and that works, the red light stays on and it takes a couple of minutes to turn back on and then when it does it says it's verifying the security software...blah, blah. Then everything works fine for a few days. Seems like I'm doing the hard reset a lot more than I should and something not right with my phone.

Any insight or am I just crazy and this is typical for the BB 8130? lol

Check your file free memory. Options, status. Have you ever updated your BB OS.

looks like I have a lot of mem space left and I have the original OS my BB came with when I bought it back in March of '09.

That is NOT a lot! That is 3mb!

Pull the battery and check again. Post your results back here.

File Free: 3209839 bytes...weird now it went up. lol Okay, I'll follow the advice from the links you provided.

You need around 12,000,000 byte free! 12mb. 3,209,839 is not enough.
