Surprise, Surprise, Surprise...

Imagine how surprised I was when my computer illiterate father turned on my computer and proceeded to pull up a YouTube video for me to watch last night.  My jaw dropped to the floor.

"Dad," I said. "You just pulled up a YouTube video."

"Next thing you know, I will be on Facebook," dad replied smiling.

My walks with Maggie are occurring later and later in the day.  I walked two miles today to find Helen at my house when I arrived home.  I was anxious to find out what she was cooking for lunch today.

"Spaghetti and meat sauce," Helen told me. "The sauce needs around two hours to simmer."

It has been absolute torture sitting here in my computer room with all the delicious and tantalizing smells wafting in from the kitchen.

Send me some spaghetti my way... ;-)

After what you told her yesterday, she'll be cooking for you as long as you want it. Maybe she could give you lessons?

Your dads comment made me laugh. Let me know when he joins FB, I will un-freeze my account to see that.

A young heating and air-conditioning man came to give us an estimate on new equipment some years back. He walked into our computer room where the furnace closet is located and gasped, "Oh! I didn't know OLD people had computers!"

A middle-aged man with better manners got the job.
