I probably would have written a post yesterday, but we are having some internet issues, so after restarting the computer a dozen times and playing around with the modem, I gave up doing internet anything yesterday.
To start, I want to say how thankful I am for internet. Really. When asked yesterday about our long-distance relationship back a mere 14 years ago, Tom and I talked about our three hour drives, handwriting letters, expensive phone calls. This was just before the computer was a household necessity and before Internet. To think how much EASIER it would have been to have internet then?! In just a few short years, we have come a long, long way and it is truly amazing to think that my children will not know anything without Internet. And now we have trouble doing anything but sitting and being a part of the Internet world. It is truly missed when it isn't available to us! So, Internet gods, what offering are you looking for?? I created a special post for you so I hope you will look kindly on us now.
My second thankful post would be for our friends Julie and Sean, who are so much fun to hang out with, as we did last night-swapping some truly outstanding stories and then they introduced us to Guitar Hero. We enjoy and appreciate their company so much. Plus, Ian wanted to make Julie cookies for her birthday and he created for her one of the best birthday cards I have seen from him yet. Thankfully, he hasn't been introduced to Guitar Hero yet.

And I must give big thank-you to Ian, for the awesome card and the delicious cookies!
And thanks again to you and Tom, for hanging out with us and playing Guitar hero :)
pretty soon the internet will be up on Michael's list with the TV- it is amazing how many hours can go by while on the internet.
Although you are right it is amazing- and the fact you can keep in touch with so many family members and friends on a daily basis through your blog :)
Glad you have Julie and Sean that you can hang out with as a couple.
I'd go out of my mind without internet.
I forgot to post above that my friend had the same issues with underlining.
And the daily chuckle is really appreciated.
Ah, the capricious internet gods. Mercifully they have been kind to me lately. Glad you got your connection back. Who is this Guitar Hero? Sounds intriguing.
