Yesterday after church, we went to the country club in town. They have a really good restaurant. On Sundays, it’s a brunch buffet. It was delicious, and full of wonderful company. Long time friends of my parents are still in town and hanging out with my mom. After the brunch, Debbie looked up and noticed that almost everyone was looking at their phone. She had to get a picture.
I wasn’t sure if I was in the picture or not, so I sort of smiled.
We spent the day just hanging out together. We ran some errands, went to an antique store, and went to Walmart. In the evening, we had a dinner of leftovers on the deck. It was beautiful weather. I wanted to get a picture of the event, I decided to do it selfie-style. After I took the picture, I noticed everyone was looking at a phone again. Ha! Even funnier, I noticed that Debbie had photo-bombed!
They were looking at some pictures.
In the evening, we just sort of talked and hung out. The closing ceremonies of the Olympics were playing in the background on tv. As darkness fell, everyone was excited to see the appearance of a spider just outside the back door. It had spun a web across the door on earlier evenings, but everyone thought it had left. We all admired it as it made a new web. We called it Dave, even though we think it’s a female. There was a smaller spider nearby that we think is Dave’s mate, and usually males are smaller than females.
Good job, Dave! Keep eating those pesky bugs!
Glad the celebrations seem to be continuing and Mom has good friends as well as family still with her. I fear I cannot be friends with any family that lives to look at their phone screens, however.
…and so why not name the spider Davida then?
–cheering her on from Maryland; “Go get ’em, Spider Woman!”
I like the selfie – and Debbie is hilarious! Those cool people wouldn’t keep looking at their phones if they had one of my flip phone models. When I look at my phone, it’s to remind myself that it’s grey.
I am so glad for all the support your family has. Such love! 🙂
I Still Have A “Flip” Phone, Too…..It seems to me the “purpose” of a “phone” is for phone calls and that’s all!!! Just Sayin’ <3 Aunt Bev 🙂
Was there any napping involved? I cam to read about napping.
Still delighting in the after-effects of the g&ts, eh??
I Saw “Dave’s” Awesome Work When I Woke Up Saturday Morning!! Your mom tried to take a picture, but the lighting wasn’t right 🙁
It was good to see you in Nebraska!!! <3 Aunt Bev 🙂
Oh, that generation is all about their smart phones now. Who’s the wiser? I wonder.
I made the blog! Lol so glad Dave/davina has a new home. Was worried about your mom having a new friend on her head at some point. Eek!
