Within a 24 hour period I had two people tell me I need to join the 21st century (my sweet brother and even sweeter friend Stephanie - and, yes, I use the term "sweet" loosely). However I have taken their advice to heart. I now have a blog spot. Do I know what a blog spot is? No, not really, but from the outside it appeared to be more appropriate for me (being the old lady that I am) than My Space or Facebook. The My Space and Facebook scene all seemed a little young and hip for me, the one who still uses a camera that actually takes film and doesn't require memory sticks, or whatever you call them. Come to think of it, I also got called on that recently, I was questioned by a co-worker who wondered why in the world I would use such a camera.
So I guess that is where we get to the root of it. I don't like change. I like to eat at the same resturants, do the same things, hang out with the same people. I barely understand text messaging and definately haven't picked up on the whole slang/short hand that people use. I mean, CU L8R, come on, the first time somene "said" that to me I thought they were just a really bad typer.
But for someone so resistant to change, there happens to be alot of it going on. I have been at my new job for about 8 months now. Being the new kid on the block took some getting used to. I'm building a house, only a few weeks in to it, but it's coming along. And now, lo and behold, I'm an official resident of the 21st century - I have a blog. So here we go, I guess I'm inviting you to come along on my adventure.
P.S. No, no that's not me in the picture, it's my neice (officially the cutest child in the whole world). Don't you think she looks just like her aunt?

Yay! I'm the first to comment on your blog! I am so excited to welcome you to the blog world... but be careful, it's very addictive:) Love you bunches!
Well, I guess I will have to be the second person to comment since Ashley beat me to it. I am so glad that you have joined the 21st century. I am assuming that using the term "sweet" loosely applied solely to your brother. :) You know that I am always sweet! I can't wait to read more of your blog and see pictures of the house. Love ya!

Well, I don't know what a blog is but I'm glad you have one. I guess this means I can keep up with you without even seeing you!
Congratulations! Tell our other friend I said hi! (it's been a while since I've heard from her).
Way to go! I am so excited for you....can't wait to see pictures! I'm pondering the "sweet" business..Stephanie is still under consideration regardless of her self vote there. Let this old momma try out some of that new fangled shorthand:)
luv u momma k
First of all Stephanie is no where near as sweet as me. Second your neice is so cute due to the fact that she looks like her daddy...not her aunt.Third you are to old for myspace. Fourth welcome to the 21st century, you should listen to me more often.....:)
