Virtual Life

Wednesday, June 06, 2012

I am on Facebook, LinkedIn and of course, SparkPeople. I work on a server all day and I can work from home if need be. I am even attending school completely online.

And now I am going to be hosting a virtual baby shower. My DS and DIL are not going to be able to come up here before she has her baby in September. Her mom lives in PA also, but a good 3 hours away from here. We've decided since they can't come here, we will have a virtual shower instead. The guests will come to either my house or her mom's. They will (hopefully) have sent their gifts earlier to my DS in Florida. On the appointed day (still to be decided), my DS will set up two computers in his house, one hooked up to my house via Skype and one hooked up to her mother's house. And we'll have a baby shower!

(I hope it works)

    I had a virtual shower for my baby in 2000. My online friends found out I wasn't getting a shower and they sent 3 huge boxes...one contained a box mix for a cake and party decorations the others gifts... and I baked the cake and decorated and opened the gifts and took pictures (I didn't skype back then) and we met in a chat room and talked.) I will always remember my virtual shower.

Happy Shower for your new blessing.

    That's amazing. I'm about to "unplug" for two months while I'm in India. Have a good summer and I hope the virtual shower goes well.

    That is a different but neat idea?


Did you hear Linkedin got compromised today. Not sure what the hackers can do with our passwords and user ID but I am hoping mine was not one of the ones they hacked. emoticon
