And the video is HYSTERICAL! Zoe did such a great job. <br />Love the textersation between you and your brother---haha! (Talladega nights is one of our faves). I wanted to join in on TToT this weekend but had ZERO time to devote to other blogs and didn't want to be a tool and just throw my post up there and leave, so I didn't join in, but I hope to next week. I have a little time this morning but already posted yesterday. :) Oh, also, love the Buddha quote. #smoresrule Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1329563580023354380.post-60235394054527663732013-10-13T08:21:45.917-04:002013-10-13T08:21:45.917-04:00Fine, go with the header :p

Please don't think me rude, maybe it's just because I'm an old guy that can't see worth a crap, but I like the PC with a 22" screen! I've got like ten different things hooked into it with USB's, and don't have to sit close to my wife when I use it! I keep downloading free movies in my laptops, just in case I go back on the road one day. Besides that, one of them sits next to my recliner in case I ever sit there again, and the other is being used to lean a stack of BluRays against. Besides, if you really hold them in your lap, you'll end up with a heat rash where you really don't want a heat rash! :) Also, be careful with the kids setting fires. I understand barns burn real good on a cool Fall evening! I do like line dried sheets, as long as the birds flying over are scarce and the bugs don't bite too bad. Me? A city boy? Never, I grew up in the country. Can't you tell? Enjoyed this!

Lots of head rolling, so maybe not as a gorilla would act, but a person wearing a mask while on a motorcycle when he realized it's REALLY hard to see the road and other cars when wearing a gorilla mask. :)Christinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17209807996463889703noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1329563580023354380.post-39784079196298172472013-10-12T22:41:57.052-04:002013-10-12T22:41:57.052-04:00Thanks!

I have a hard time believing my kids are the ages they are. A line I once heard (but most people have heard plenty, as they don't live under a rock like I do) was "The days are long, but the years are short." Could not be more true. And as they get bigger, it only goes faster. It boggles my mind that I have a child who is much taller than me and in high school.

I lose my mind when the computer does something funky. The only thing I know how to do to fix it is to restart the blasted computer. Oh, and cross my fingers. That's an important step.<br /><br />I wondered if it cost money to do a JibJab. Friends of ours sent one out of their family as a Christmas card one year. Hilarious! And for a Christmas card, probably worth it if you don't send out actual cards.<br />Christinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17209807996463889703noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1329563580023354380.post-35496454834304343242013-10-12T22:36:17.569-04:002013-10-12T22:36:17.569-04:00Ha!

If anything goes down, internet, phone, or computer I start panicking fast. I am most thankful for the times they work correctly... and I wish that could be all the time... lol.<br /><br />I totally saw the hilarious video Lizzy posted with the Monster Mash dance. I thought it was great! I actually tried to insert my own family's faces which took a lot of searching for photos and fitting them into the proper slots. Then right as I was about to hit "play" to watch my masterpiece and be amused, the site informed me I'd have to pay to see it. Ha! I'm too cheap for that business. (Besides, can you imagine the conversation between hubby and I when he saw the charge on our account? Now that would probably be work paying for.
