You never really realize how much you really rely on computers, and phones, and just general technology until you lose power and can’t use said electronics. I mean I am sitting here with no power right now blogging from my phone. As a mother that is actually fairly disappointing. I remember as a kid going and playing outside, running through the fields we had no business being in, swimming, and just general reeking of havoc. I want that for my daughter. Maybe with a little less of the havoc but you get my point. I do not want her to be so plugged in to the tv and all of the other video games and such that she doesn’t enjoy the simple pleasures of being a kid.
So now that I have the obligational parent stuff out of the way…….lol. I am sitting here in the dark an I really miss the dang tv!! My phone is going to die and that is well and truly going to bite. My family and I are sitting here playing a game of Sorry (I hate this damn game) by cell phone light. I could so go for some CSI or Criminal Minds right now.
I will say goodnight before my cell completely runs out of juice. Keep your fingers crossed the power comes on soon. Hope you all have a wonderful weekend!!!!
Too Funny. You should have an “electronics off night” at least once a week or all day Saturday. The only way to prevent your daughter from being so plugged in is by setting the example. Start now and it won’t be such an issue with her later.
