SNEAK BACK IN

So much has happened in the last three years.

So much has happened since I last posted.

With that said, I have often thought about sneaking back in. Not that I have all that much to post about, but more as something to do. Just sneak in and nobody will ever know.

I think blogs are obsolete. They take time and the ability to actually write about things, events or just something humorous. Today is all about instant gratification. A few seconds and you are done.

FACEBOOK

The blog replacement. The new "IN" thing to do. Where people go to tell the darndest details of their lives. Post the most inane comments. Play games.

I did try it. For a while. Soon grew to hate it.

Social networking. Where some people are too comfortable socialising.

Did I mention instant gratification? Post something dumb and wait for someone to "Like" this. I think it must be an ego thing. Friends? People have more friends on Facebook than they do in life.

Bob is on Facebook. He always has questions. One of which is how did so and so become my friend? I always tell him he must have accepted them as that is the only way. Then it happened to me. I got friends I don't want (on Facebook) and have no idea how it happened.

Will I go back? Absolutely!! Just as soon as they add a "Stupid" check box right after the "Like" check box.

Bet I would lose some of those "friends". Maybe all of them.

BAD BLOGGER !!!!!

Something has changed with Blogger and I don't really know what.

After the reunion I tried posting pictures and it wouldn't take them.

Then I went into the guts of this thing and really messed things up.

To make a long story short, before I was done trying everything I could think of, I lost my blog template. I haven't been able to restore it to the way it was.

For now, until I get up enough nerve to mess some more, it IS what it IS. Plain old black and white.

For some reason Picasa is now loading my pictures to blogger and as I enter them I get nothing but mumbo jumbo until I post.

What that means is, I have no idea where my pictures will be placed, or my description of the events.

Enough for now.

Pictures later.

REUNION ?

Bob talked to Meg and she said Loretta is thinking of coming back for a visit this summer.

I wonder if there would be a chance for some kind of reunion in Lincoln?

Anyone interested?

EASTER










I finally got my Easter pictures off my camera and into my computer and thought I had better get them posted before it was time for Christmas pictures.

Dans boys came over and found that the Easter Bunny had left eggs for them at our house. The "hunt" was fast and furious with Peyton managing to get quite a few in spite of his big brothers.

The Bunny never got a call back from Spencer's mom, so he must have figured Spencer had other plans.

Today is May Day. I wonder how long before that tradition is forgotten about. Not many remember delivering baskets and running before you got caught.

Does May Day also usher in spring? We always seem to have to have a jacket handy. It can be cold and rainy one minute and too warm the next. Nights are still pretty chilly.

Time to have coffee and get ready. I have a couple of garage sales I am going to this morning in the neighborhood. Never know when you will find a treasure you just can't live without.
