Is it a Blog or a Blab?

HahahahaHAHAHAHAHAHA!

This was a question posed to me today!

Let me set up the story…

As Sofia used to say on Golden Girls:  Picture this…

Gabi’s basketball practice this morning.

Talking with the coach’s wife.

Here comes Gabi and the coach.

We start chatting and laughing about the “Kindle” post (you can access it here at https://athankfullyimperfectwoman.com/2013/02/14/hrmph-and-there-goes-the-kindle/).

I then informed everyone that Gabi was fine with the post (after she read it) until her sister called from college and in the course of the conversation…on speakerphone…said “So I hear Gabi lost her Kindle”.

Oh boy did I get a look as she says “EVERYBODY knows I lost my Kindle”!

This was the point in the conversation when her coach said “Hey Gabi – is it a Blog or a Blab?”

Of course, she looks at me and says “Yeah Mom!?!”

I burst out laughing, and looked at him and said “Good point!”

So yes, I do suppose I will need to watch what and how I post.

And trust me – I already am – I’ve been getting trained by the 23 year old on what’s ok and not ok to put/do on Facebook.

Ugh, it stinks getting old.

Obviously we’re not “IN” anymore.

When did this happen?

We used to be so cool!

We knew what was ok and not ok to do…taught our children all the do’s and dont’s, the rights from wrongs – all the social graces.

When did the tables turn?

Am I already in the “over the hill” crowd?

I’m only 46!

I didn’t expect that for another 10-14 years!

Hrmph.

{arms crossed…besmudgened look on my face}

I think I’m doing quite well, thank you very much.

So I’ll continue on with my posts.

Carefully, that is…

With my children’s psyche’s in mind…:)

ps…the picture is of the roses I bought 1/2 price after Valentine’s Day for $15…and the mouse that my hubby bought me (I told him I’d seen it and wanted it – it reminded me of my blog post The Mouse, the Fudge Fluff and Ronald!) he’s so good to me!https://athankfullyimperfectwoman.com/2013/01/30/the-mouse-the-fudge-fluff-and-ronald/)
