Giving Thanks--Day 17


DSC03211

Yesterday....I was thankful for.....
The Internet!

I LOVE IT.
I might spend too much time on it sometimes, true.
but I don't know where I would be without it!
sad? maybe. but I use it for everything....
need to prove a point: google it...
need to see if the caretaker in Captain America is in deed Mr. Filtch from Harry Potter: imdb it...
need to find a recipe: allrecipe it
OR....the money go-to for recipes and crafts, laughs, photos, tutorials, printables, ideas, and organization {plus SO much more!}: 
pinterest!!
{need an invite?? I can send you one!}
plus...there is facebook, where you can keep in contact with friends and family {or stalk them}

Of course....BLOG-LAND!! oh my...you know i follow like 200 blogs. or more. seriously.
pathetic? maybe....but I've found SO much inspiration, motivation, honesty, humility, or encouragement with in blogland. Plus, there is sadness and heartache, but in a way that makes me want to reach out and help. helps to make me realize and see that I still have it great. No matter what troubles I may be going through. My daughter is alive and healthy. I am able to get pregnant, and haven't had any complications so far. My husband is healthy. We are all happy!
My heart aches for those who I know {or don't know} that I enjoy reading their blogs and they are having trouble. I always wish there was more that I could do....more to do than just leave a comment, send an email, or make a phone call.
It saddens me when people are mean {and there is a surprisingly high number out there} and they leave mean or ignorant comments. 

With the internet we are also able to watch netflix or hulu streaming through our TV! nice! 
Hulu is great for newer shows that we miss--like glee or the New Girl...Have you seen the new girl??
Oh.MY. love this show. I love Zooey Deschanel anyways...but now a tv show with her? such awesomeness!
And...through the internet, we can play Black Ops or MW3 online, or with my brothers. It's like our family time that we can't have because we are like hundreds, or thousands of miles away! it helps keep us connected.
As does Skype or Oovoo! Love Oovoo more, because skype tends to freeze ALOT on us! plus you can have more than one caller. last night, we had us, the smiths in provo, and mama lawrence in waldorf....all talking at the same time.....FOR FREE!!
awesomeness!
