I've been off for a while.. no real reason, just nothing to say. Maybe its the winter crap. Warmer weather is on its way. The couple of inches of ice is slowly receding off the driveway. The kids have gone to school every day for a week!! So many strange (for us) stories.
I had a a friend call me the other day and asked if we had internet access (who doesn't), and if I could be online and the phone at the same time? After I said yes, they asked me to look up something, then recited a email address.... This is 2011 right? This is someone who has kids in the same school as mine, and a completely functioning member of society. They did confess that they do not have a computer at home and with their work, never really needed one. I forget too how some places here don't have a choice of cable or satellite, much less cell phone coverage. We tell people not to text us because our phones don't work in our house.
Its funny how our lives have changed. How many people don't text? We do crazy things here. We pick up our lan line phones and call people. Sometimes we go over and talk to them. Crazy, huh!?!?! If you want to talk to my dad, you better go and see him. Not a chatty phone kind of guy. Our basement has a rotary phone in it, original to the home. I love it!!
