After we read it, we rented the movie and were SO disappointed in it!Joy and Dennishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01068905305494279179noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3527176080820870950.post-9824285952294654362010-07-11T15:12:48.102-05:002010-07-11T15:12:48.102-05:00Yeah....

I was instantly back in the 70's curled up on the avocado green couches with my 10 siblings listening to the flies buzz and my Mom's voice reading The Little Princess. <br /><br />I miss those quieter times too.Boy Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05988991342641590147noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3527176080820870950.post-22692150522371712702010-07-08T15:41:00.113-05:002010-07-08T15:41:00.113-05:00I don't remember you being there for my childh...I don't remember you being there for my childhood...? It all sounds quite familiar, though. Especially the Neil Diamond:) Although, being that I was in the 80s, we had an actual remote for our TV. <br /><br />I think the thing I sometimes miss the most, is being truly unreachable. I've lost my cell phone once or twice and I actually enjoy the quiet when it happens:)Barbaloothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01541675474218507411noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3527176080820870950.post-28051646520240222162010-07-08T15:39:18.048-05:002010-07-08T15:39:18.048-05:00You just described my childhood.
