Tomorrow the Keys!

I am way past bedtime but I thought I would type a few words.


Tomorrow my fiance and I get the keys to our new house!  Eeeeeee!  So excited.  Millions of pictures to come!


Have you ever scrolled through blogs and come across one and have no idea what the blogger is posting about? Some days I feel so dense.  I often listen to conversations and have no idea what people are talking about.  I still don't what the hell an iphone is.  Or an ipad.  It took me over an hour to find out how to take call display off my cell phone.  I did some online banking today and for some reason I destroyed my password and had to call the bank to get it reset.  My girlfriend (hi Lori!) and I have trouble even answering our cell phones.  It confuses us and causes intense panic.  I see people answer their phones and they whip their index finger across the screen. I have no idea what they are doing.  Not a clue.  I don't know what a Blu-ray is but I know someone who has a dog named Blu!  For some reason I don't think there is any relation. I never get around to deleting people off my call display on my land line phone.  I don't know how.  I think it gets up to 99 and just starts over again.  Or maybe the phone self-destructs.  Or maybe a direct message goes to my phone company and they take it away.  (Like a child who is too young for a toy only I am too old.) I am 40 for the love of all that is good and true, what is life going to be like when I am 80?  Will my children and grandchildren be able to stop my heart remotely and laugh then restart again?  


OK, here is a song for my man because he reads this blog and has yet to leave a comment. I love you so much my insides hurt and my brain goes foggy and my breath catches in my throat.  Everything is easier 'cause  of you. Our cats will learn to love like tolerate not kill each other.

I'll light the fire
You put the flowers in the vase
That you bought today 

Staring at the fire
For hours and hours
While I listen to you 
Play your love songs
All night long for me
Only for me 

Come to me now
And rest your head for just five minutes
Everything is good
Such a cosy room
The windows are illuminated
By the sunshine through them 
Fiery gems for you
Only for you 

Our house is a very, very fine house
With two cats in the yard
Life used to be so hard
Now everything is easy
'Cause of you
And our la,la,la, la,la, la, la, la, la, la, la..... 

Our house is a very, very fine house
With two cats in the yard
Life used to be so hard
Now everything is easy
'Cause of you
And Our 

I'll light the fire
And you place the flowers in the jar
That you bought today

  1. EEEEEEKKKKKKKK. Sorry did I scream too loud?

    What a lovely song to choose for your man. So pleased and excited for you in equal measures. A new start is a fantastic thing especially when you suddenly find "the one" just when you didn't think you ever would.

  4. Ha! I wrote a long time ago about how I should just get a Jitterbug- the phone for old people. Giant numbers. It makes calls, it answers them.
    Enjoy this day with your love and your very fine house and don't answer the damn phone.

  6. oh By the way Barbara... you are not alone with this technology malarkey... The moment I understand something with the phones, they change them again... I do not have time to catch up and so I have a very normal looking small cellphone that I can make and receive phone calls and messages... and that is about it... Do not worry about itt!

    oh.. so nice post.)
    Love your blog.))

    I now spend a survey of bloggers with such questions.
    1. Why did you create a blog?
    2. For whom you taking him? Want to be popular?
    3. How long will it keep going?

  12. Don't feel bad, my fellow techy lost....I haven't watched anything on my tv since the new game system was installed, because now you have to do something different with the 37 different remote controls in order to play a movie on dvd. It took me over a year to learn the right process last time. This time I just don't have the energy!!

  13. How exciting to be getting the keys. Love the song, it made me smile and feel all warm and gooey! Yes, though I like to think I am up to date with technology, I hear my son talking and think, what?? I have to ask how to use the dvd player and reset the TV if it goes wrong. Need to hone my skills I think!
