~"Please turn it down, Daddy is trying to finish your homework."Isn't that just the cutest cartoon??? I found it online and just cracked up....
We just went out and bought danielle a new laptop. Before you say...." Oh my gosh, they are spoiling that little girl rotten...", know that I am using it during the day. Oh, and during the night, also. I mean, my computer downstairs is like, ancient. If you want to use it you need to allow at least 30 minutes for it to warm up. Then you can start trying to dial up to an internet connection. And sometimes it does it, and sometimes it doesn't. And as I was trying to delete crap that was bogging it down one day, I deleted Microsoft Word and the modem and some other crap that I was not supposed to delete, so it is like worthless. Can't even type a measly letter on the thing. So, this new computer has a login for me, and danielle. I am the administrator ( How important....) , so I get to put all the blocks on it and all that good stuff. But she gets to use that laptop instead of daddy's work laptop. He was getting tired of the "strawberry shortcake reunion" game bogging down his "just for work" computer. He couldn't figure out why the "Bratz"website kept popping up fashion shows in the middle of important emails. (Doesn't he have any sense for fashion..................like, come-on..........)
So, every once in awhile I wonder....."What makes a child spoiled???" I mean, I had absolutely NONE of this crap as a child. Ok, maybe for my brothers 10th birthday we got an "atari", but he would barely let me play it. (thus, the reasons for my counseling appointments.......kidding.) So, I mean, my mom wouldn't even let us drink pop. Did they even HAVE pop?? Oh yeah, my grandma used to give me sips of her diet pop on occasion. Let me tell ya, that old diet pop tasted like water but I sure thought I was special when I got to drink it....
So, whatever you all are thinking, just get over it. We have a well-rounded, well-adjusted child. Really. She only throws fits when we wont give her more candy at midnight. Jokes.

It's not so unusual these days for younger kids to have laptops, they're so darn convenient! What I do think is ridiculous though, is when I see younger kids with brand-spankin new cars. You should see what 16 year olds out here are driving!!!
Oh, I know. I see some of these high school kids driving BMW's. Give me a break. Oh, and the parents are driving peices of crap. True story, I've seen it.
LOL- I know, isn't that funny? No way in hell would my father let me drive something even remotely as nice as what he had back in the day! And we wonder why teenagers are the most at risk for traffic accidents.
Hey, I know, remember when parents used to give you their old peice of crap to drive and then they would go out and buy a nice car.....I guess it's the other way around now. So, I soppose we need to keep up with the Jones' and get Danielle her own H3 to drive to school. She'll be stylin'......
umm..you can honestly say Danielle won't have a car at 16???
Sweet 16th birthday Daddy Joe will be buying her a BMW. LOL
Nope, that's not what I'm saying, :-)
By then I better have my OWN Beamer, or she better not be getting one. I know some people from wallace who live in our neighborhood and their high school daughter drives a BMW and the dad drives a late 80's ford escort hatchback. That better not be me!!!!
Good to hear from you Tracy
