HOW QUIET IT IS

Well it got here and now it is over again for another year, no hub bub and flurry getting thinks done and ready for Santa. I spent a very quiet and relaxing birthday and Christmas,had many calls and wishes, and it was nice.

I spent 3 hours yesterday on line with my Son who lives in Seattle, he has me set up so that I can ask for remote assistance and he can take control of my computer and do what ever needs to be done, it has been running very slow so he decided that maybe it was the phone lines, we have cell phones so he can tell me what to do, he had me on the floor under the desk unplugging wires and getting things straightened out, well let me tell you that is no easy task for my old bones and lack of air don’t help the sound effects either, anyway he finally got me thru it and hooked back up, so then he wanted to download a program of creating cards and banners so we started in doing that, one thing led to another and he had me sitting pretty.

After about 2 hours or so later I chuckled and he said “what” so told him that I was sure glad that I had, had him 42 years ago, he said “why” and I said well I am sitting here thinking that if I hadn’t had you, I would be the biggest dummy around, “how so” he says...... I have been thinking while we are doing this that if I hadn’t had you that I would have had no one to push me into learning all this stuff, I am constantly amazed at what I have learned about computers, Tivo’s, Cell phones and many other things, so much of it I didn’t want to do, but he is a strong guy and he has literally made me learn these things and always says to me “good job mom” so to hear those words coming from him makes my day spin in all the right directions, oh yes and he also forced me into flying in an airplane so at 70 years old took my first flight alone, can you top that one. I have so many blessings with my kids, I am a very lucky mother...........
