In The Land of Teenager: A True Story

Someone stepped on the Girlchild’s violin at school yesterday, and yes we had a lengthy conversation as to why the violin was on the floor. I told her to look up the telephone number to the music store and then call them to see about getting it repaired.

She goes online and looks up the telephone number.

She dials the number on her cell phone and then stands there looking at me with this odd confused look on her face.

She hands me the phone and tells me there is this weird beeping noise.

I take the phone and put it to my ear and give a listen.

I then take a deep breath and explain to her that it’s called a busy signal….

 

Really?

blessing and deep breathing

She laid down sprawl-eagle and did the back stroke for several minutes then switched to rolling from tummy to back all the way into the living room!   Friday, March 18 Today was cake decorating day. Click here to see the start to finish. Saturday, March 19 Today was Muffinhead’s birthday party at a local park! The sun was shinning and the weather was beautiful and a good time was had by all...

Announcing the “I won…You Win Giveaway!!!”

Several weeks ago I was the lucky winner of a book giveaway from Mocha with Linda . Click here to read her post about this book! As I finished the book up the other day I began to think about the two women the story centers around. The story begins with two pen pals in elementary school and they continue with there friendship for many, many years through letters and emails, but they have never actually met, not until things change for the main character. Her life takes an unexpected turn and she finds herself face to face with her long time pen pal. I began to think of the similarities between the two women in the book and all of you, my fellow bloggers. As members of this unique internet community we enter into each other lives as we read each others posts, as we comment, share encouraging words or just a well needed giggle now and then. But what I enjoyed as I read this book was the depiction of the friendship these two women shared. They had been intimately involved...
