We All Need a Phone

My friend Julie had her cell phone cut off because she is out of work and can’t pay the monthly bill.

Now when she applies for new jobs she has no way for the employer to get in touch with her for an interview. This is not only inconvenient, but it makes her look bad to prospective employers. I told her it was OK to give out my phone number for them to call.

I hope that helps her find a job soon. All her other bills are coming due, including the rent. I can’t help her with those but at least I can let her borrow my phone if she needs it.

When A Picture is Worth a Thousand Words

The title of this post is not original but this quotation is so real and relevant to this time. I ran across a website for photographers who showcase their photos.

One shot was amazing. I am not a photo expert, but when I saw the picture of a lady on a train railpath, I felt an instant emotion that is difficult to describe. It’s a mix emotion of mystery, slight anxiety and some anticipation. I thought that the photographer’s techniques were effective in creating a mysterious photo.

There were several others in his portfolio. I was happy to stumble across his website today. I’m going to leave a comment on the one photo to tell him that I appreciate his work.

Yes, We Can

I was at the kitchen busy washing the dishes when my three kids walked out of their bedrooms, chanting “Yes, We Can”. They looked so cute, but I wonder if they know what they’re talking about. I asked them where they heard the “Yes, We Can” and they all said that it’s from the Internet. My oldest child added, “It’s from President Barack Obama”. I went back to my dishes, although now I wish I took my time at that moment to teach them the deeper meaning of what “Yes, We Can” means.

Smart Phones

I am excited about terminating our cell phone contracts next year. That way, we can get new cell phone contracts and get new phones. I particularly like the smart phones and can’t wait to get them next year. I saw a smart phone and it has so many applications that seem fun to use. Every year, the cell phones get better and better.

Ipods

Last Christmas, we bought our kids ipods for Christmas. Daniel and Leo were so excited and started loadin up tunes, and music videos from itunes. I was so impressed with the ipods and itunes. The quality of videos are so good and clear. Technology is so amazing. I like itunes because the kids can listen to the music before they download them and it costs next to nothing.

Call of Duty 5

Daniel will turn 12 years old next May but he still believes in Santa Claus. My sister tells me that maybe Daniel is just pretending that he still believes in Santa. But as a mother I know that he truly believes in Santa. I hear him talk to his friends with disbelief when they say Santa is not real.

Every year, my kids write to Santa and we all go to the Post Office to mail their letters. A couple of weeks before Christmas, they also receive a letter back from the North Pole. Santa writes back to them! Ofcourse, every year Santa brings them the toys they want. This year, Daniel wants Santa to get him a 360 game called “Call of Duty 5”. I’m not sure if Santa will bring him this game because it’s rated M.

Rock Band 2

Leo is expecting a Rock Band 2 from Santa this Christmas. Daniel, Leo and Pierce are excited to play Rock Band. They said they’ll take turns playing with the guitar, drum set, and microphone. I am sure that they will play well together and that they’ll bond even more. My kids love to sing, and dance. I just hope that they learn a real instrument. Maybe, when they get a little older, they will be motivated to pick up a musical instrument.
