My Life's Ingredients

Ok… missed a couple of months there again, but things around here just are sooooo busy (twins have scheduled something nearly every day!!)… When we were in Germany in April it came to mind the things my girls will feel as alien to them and they’ll never use them due to advanced technology etc. TECHNOLOGY ONLY. :) 1) Dial-up Internet connection – remember those Modem-noises?? Whistling and pinging etc?    Funny, but horrible SLOOOW!! :D   2) Walkman / Discman – be it the tape or the CD type. Far too big, and nowadays you can use your phone or an MP3/MP4 player that is tiny but still has tons of tracks on it!     3)   Video camera – yup, the big, bulky kind! Huge thing for personal use which would make you look nowadays you’re part of a film crew!! ;) 4) Film Camera – those develop the film kinda thing. Hah! They’ll never even KNOW what it means to take photos and not being able to DELETE them prior to print...

Yeah… just checked my blogger account and realised I didn’t post anything for over a month now (including the 10 on the 10th in May). Could blame it all on the twins, but that would be unfair … it’s more likely to be my other online time (really have to cut back on that!). In short – I blame Facebook Games (again) – and will have to do something about it. Maybe a Facebook free week? Or shall we start slowly … Facebook free day/weekend? Maybe even include a whole “online” thing? Could I survive?!? Things here are going up and down, girls are getting a bit of a hang on that weaning issue though we still have to get them to eat more lumpy food – weird really, they like their finger foods and it can be as lumpy as it gets, yet some spoon fed lumpy food they don’t like. But I’ll persevere, as our HV said if you don’t get it done by 12 months you’ll have even more problems getting the hang of that. NICE! We all (including DH and myself) are suffering from colds, Miss Martian has now passed...
