Blogging at my Mother's
I am at my mother's house trying to blog. I am using my mother's computer.
My mother bought one of those roll up flexible traveling keyboards for her home PC. She doesn't have a laptop,
Some members of the family questioned her sanity on this decision. This made her resolve to use this keyboard even stronger. Now I have to suffer the consequences. This keyboard is terrible! It doesn't capitalize when you ask it to, and some letters don't appear even though I know I typed them. The keys don't push down when you type, they wobble!
The funniest part of bloggong at my mother's is that the chair she normally sits in is three feet from the computer. I was reading someone's blog and they had pictures of their kids posted.
Mom: Who's that Barbara?
Me: Someone's kids, you don't know them.
Mom: Who's that?
Me: Just another kid Mom. They belong to one of the blogger's I read.
I began hoping that my blogfriends didn't post any pictures, how do you tell your non-blogging Mom about a picture of LunaticMom's daughter LoonyGirl. It's so hard to explain.
So, between my mother's keyboard and her questions, blogging is a little slow here.
My mom is the best though. I had a terrible migraine this morning. My mother was fetching me drinks, getting medicine for me, covering me up with a blanket and was extra quiet doing all these things. She rocks.
Tomorrow's post will be about the Blog Olympics coming up on Monday!

trying to explain my blog to my non-computing mother was VERY funny....
but that was nothing to trying to explain 'email'!
When I go there, there is no computer at all! :-(
Mothers, eh??

It is so hard to explain blogging to the non-blogging. I am still explaining it to my mother. She tries, she reads, she just doesn't get it. LOL!!

Hope you're feeling better! It is hard to explain it all to non-bloggers. My husband often asks "who's that?" when he comes in the room...
