Texting - Why can't we just talk....


Weighed in today and I’m up 2 pounds.  The button on my pants are a bit stretched to say the least.

Today is the day for us to talk about our family (young and old) and their social lives. It doesn’t seem to matter where they are or who they are with, texting, texting, and more texting, all I see are the tops of their heads. They eat, sleep, and think with their phones. Facebook falls in the same category, with too much personal information getting put on the web, nothing is a secret. For instance, I went over to my son and daughter-in-law’s house the other night for dinner where my daughter-in-law was telling me a story about an old friend. She had gone on Facebook earlier that day to find that this old friend had posted an entire fight in detail that he had had with his wife. Everyone then knew about it, which to me is certainly awful to their marriage in that it is none of our business what happens behind closed doors. The amount of voices heard in conversations now a day are so limited that children along with their parents forget how to express their feelings verbally to the people around them.

Thumbs down for texting

Thumbs up for my family and conversation


Have a wonderful day….
