Being online is an activity for me serving many purposes.
I go online to communicate. I am always logged into Skype as you know, for one reason you know. I even have it on my iphone.
I go online to share photos. Especially priceless ones like this
and this
I go online to shop.
I go online to sell my artwork.
I go online to send drafts of copy and design drafts to clients.
I went online to see how to plant peas and grow them and replant them eventually with the kids in my mother’s garden. Apparently, it works because I now have three inch tall pea plants.
I went online to sign the kids up for tennis camp. And um, research GOLF camp. For summer. My children want to go to golf camp.
I hate golf. Hate it. What we will do for our kids.
I go online for design ideas. And recipes. And to check flights.
I, um, go online to watch Lifetime Movies.
Yes, what has gotten into me? I watched all of these. I did. That’s worse than vowing to watch the entire series of Will and Grace while J is gone. I have five more weeks to finish three seasons. So I doubt I will get to that.
Considering I have taken a break, and am going to watch Slumdog Millionaire tomorrow from Netflix, after I finish the last Nora Robert’s movie tonight in bed.
Seriously. I am.
They.Are.Bad. But I am watching them online.
I feel at ease as my dad flew home today. I was able to clean a little and get laundry done and was able to breathe a bit too. I feel guilty about that too, for feeling that way about having him being here for a week.
I’m not really sure where I am going with this post, except to say that sometimes I just have to shut the damn thing off.
But if I do, I always think of something, like “I gotta pay that bill”, or “I wonder exactly what area a Brazilian Wax actually covers?”
The pictures of you and the girls are wonderful! You made my day!
What great photos!! And yes, I SOO get the always online thing.
you haven’t gotten your iMPLANT? It’s a chip that they put into your head and you can surf with your fingers in midair and things get projected onto your eyeballs.
I hear you loud and clear. What do I do when I get home and see the wife and kids? First thing is plug in my laptop and sign in.
Granted, I do things after wards, but once the kids go to sleep, I’m right back on. Next to my wife, who of course, has to be on facebook 24 hours a day saving the rainforest with those fish and plants and ecoracer and godknows what else.
20$ says you’ll be on less when a certain someone comes back tho 😉
I loved your photos. I’m online for everything too. My favorite answer to every question is, “google it!”
Me too, and I carry a Blackberry for which I have a love-hate relationship. Somedays I think I want to throw it out the window while a semi-truck is passing and other times I think I can’t “live” without it.
And those photos really are priceless.
Great pics. Your girls are adorable!
Let them go to golf camp. My oldest took golf up in high school and it’s a great time for both of us when she’s in town.
BTW Love the two of them crashed on your shoulder. Enjoy that time now while you can…
i love online for many things as well. several years ago my daughter asked me if she could do guitar camp, which surprised me because we are the most unmusical family you could ever find. she took them, loved it and that fall started with lessons, which she still does. you never know what your kids might like, it’s great to give them a chance to try things you would never think of and become their own individuals. (noticed i used the correct “their/there”!)
ahhhhhhhhh, but i used noticed!!!! and i don’t know how to go back and fix the typo. oops.
