Mom’s biscuits, fried apples & scrambled eggs.

    Are these the new “twitter” posts? Are there character limits? I keep expecting the three dots to lead to more…

    I’m so glad that grandmother’s strength is returning, and that you are now having a chance to relax amongst the birds and the biscuits.

    Love to all,

      They are. I’m not going to do them on a regular basis, but it was an easy way to give Grandma updates while outside the network.

    Is this a twitter thing? if so, I would like to politely ask you not to do this any more. If I wanted to read people’s twitters I would have a Twitter account. I think the whole idea of microblogging is annoying.

      Sorry, David. I turned this on because I was going to be out of internet range for a day and wanted to be able to give updates on my Grandmother.

        Ah. That’s okay, then. I was afraid we’d start getting twitters every fifteen minutes about what you’re eating, which didn’t seem like you, but then I really don’t understand the whole Twitter phenomenon. Also, I see that you’ve changed the post title to something more informative.

          I’m still trying to figure out Twitter myself. There’s no way to do a post title from Twitter, so it just takes the first bit of the text.
