Laurie, Fudge, and Vern's Blog – March 2013 Archive (6)

Wednesday night we had our last Photography class.  In two weeks, we move on to Photoshop class with the same instructor, but I really wish this class was continuing.  It is fun being a co-ed again and back in class with my husband.  I told Megan I was pretty sure we were going to be elected Prom King and Queen of our class and all she wanted to know was if we were the only two in the class and was I even sure John would vote for me. …

Recently someone asked the question if we would clone our dogs and the unanimous answer was a resounding no.  To me, it sounds a little creepy and far-fetched, but then again, when I was growing up I would have never believed that we would be listening to songs on a device no bigger than a credit card and would have the ability to see someone who lived halfway across the country on something called a computer.  It sounded just about as preposterous as Maxwell Smart’s shoe phone. …

Last year, around this time, I did a couple of blogs about my mother and her strong desire to see Neil Diamond in concert.
