Technology

I am doing the class Me the abridged version by Cathy Zielske over at Big Picture at the moment. While I have been writing I have been thinking a lot about the technology in our lives. I seem to come back to this a lot, like mobile phones, where my kids know to go find it when it has a text message, or they say just send someone a message and find out. Usually the messages is to my good friend (Aunty) Tracey to see what Rose (her daughter is doing). I makes me laugh to hear them say it and to think that I didn't even know what one was when I was a kid.
I think about the differences between our kids, and the kids who played outside all day, cause it was much safer, and only came home when it got dark.
So as I have been noticing this a lot lately, I thought I would take a photo to scrap, since I haven't yet wirtten down these thoughts.
So here is our lounge room right now. Kate is in her room sleeping, it is quiet time. I am looking at the video for adding photos to my pages for the class. Will post more about my album later, I want to to take some work in progress type photos - is it ok to scrapbook about scrapbooking? Andrew is working on making a website for our foundation to raise funds for our friend who is dying of cancer. Awesome husband of mine contributing his time, which is so scarce. I will do another post on our foundation when it has a little more to share, ie like a website to look at! Oh and the main tv has the V8 supercars at Phillip Island on it, both my husband and I are fans. So Noah who wants to be out here with us is watching Monsters Inc on the portable DVD player with headphones on. It is such a different world in which we live!
Where would we be without the internet - outside more? Would we be healthier? These things play on my mind. Especially on such a gorgeous spring day where my friendly iphone tells me it is 31 degrees. I should mention we have been outside all morning cleaning the cubby house out and enjoying the sun - the spring cleaning saying is so true!
