We have been back at school for 2 weeks now. I am so glad I took some time for myself this past winter break because I have been running ragged. School is going well. My class is just so awesome. Alex and Lauren are keeping busy with their homework nightly and also are obsessed with making movies with the video camera they got this Christmas.
My science subject in school this past week was all about technology. I am not really a technology lover when it comes to computers, calculators, cell phones, etc. I am just not good at remembering which keys to press or what buttons to push unless I do the procedure daily. Thus, I drive my hubby crazy with my computer skills. Last Saturday, we went to the grocery store called Blooms. As soon as we walked in the store this lady pulled us aside and showed us how to put our Bloom card into the computer that was hooked onto our shopping cart. This computer would allow us to see a map of the store, search for items, and I can even download my grocery list from home by just scanning my card. Again, I am sure this makes most peoples lives easier, but frankly I was overwhelmed. I enjoy going to the grocery store and scanning the shelves looking for bargains and what this week's special is. The computer would seem to take the fun out of all that. For me grocery shopping is a stress reliever,( when I don't have my kids with me )this computer thing stressed me out. I guess I will continue shopping at Bi-lo with my notebook paper list which I usually leave on the counter at home.
