It doesn't do anything fancy, just talk. LOL! My sister laughs at us and tells us we need to "get with the times" Sometimes I think that if it wasn't for my kids, I wouldn't even house the house phone. <br />KristieKristiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06928146431909761723noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5182624667490286266.post-44244883106439241192012-01-13T15:36:56.557-08:002012-01-13T15:36:56.557-08:00I love this.. you hit the nail on the head.. that&...I love this.. you hit the nail on the head.. that's the way it is in my family.. my son comes in sits down and starts texting.. boy times sure have changed..

My grand daughter sent me a text asking me to give her Papa a message because, "you know he doesn't have text on his phone." I guess it's a foreign concept to dial the phone.rkbsnanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03823260788452105326noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5182624667490286266.post-2888967035688123382012-01-12T20:16:51.732-08:002012-01-12T20:16:51.732-08:00I've never heard the goose story before, but i...I've never heard the goose story before, but it's a peach of an analogy to how sometimes we feel put aside in a conversation. <br />I enjoyed your phone story.

I have been watching The Walton's while hemming some skirts this afternoon and thinking how contented and comforted I felt. I miss living in a small community. I am a country girl at heart and feel a bit lost whenever I have to go to town. I can't think of anything I'd rather do than sit across the table from with a cup of tea and listen to your stories. <br />Your blog looks so pretty! I am having a struggle with mine these days. I want so much to have a good balance in my life and I haven't up until now. Far too much time with those gadgets you're talking about. I am longing to just sit back and give this all over to the Lord.<br />I'm sorry this is so long! I guess I'm longing for a bit of conversation just now ;-)Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14937532276250199445noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5182624667490286266.post-45570476822293814552012-01-12T13:26:43.150-08:002012-01-12T13:26:43.150-08:00LOL - yes telephones are a very must have item now...LOL - yes telephones are a very must have item now.<br />KarenKaren - Quilts...etc.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07293429657903986492noreply@blogger.com
