Old Folks and IPods



Well, here we are......sitting around with "ear buds" stuffed in our ears.........
Pat and  I are totally "into" our IPods.....who would have "thunk" it. 

I took possession of Michaels' IPod shuffle
( after Stayton removed all the "stuff" that was on there.)
I'm quite sure it was nothing I would have been interested in. 
I've learned to download and update the thing quite easily.....
and my listening choice...bible studies and teachings.
 I know, I know, not exactly what you would want on your IPod
 but I thoroughly enjoy it and feel I'm totally "redeeming" my time. 

Stayton gave Pat his old IPod after updating to a newer IPad.
  It was quite a hoot trying to teach Pat how to run the thing,
but he has gotten the hang of it and is totally addicted now himself.

Since we no longer subscribe to Dish TV and only get a few select channels,
which by the way was such a blessing during the recent elections....
NO campaign ADS!!!!
 We have very limited selection and have
decided to spend a lot of time in learning and biblical research this winter.

So you can find us here at home,
tucked away on the hill amongst the cedars,
the wood stove pouring its heat into the house,
Sammy the cat sprawled out soaking up the heat.
 At least two dogs curled up on the recliner with Pat and us
 "Old Folks and our IPods" stuck in our ears.

Then there's Mr Jones' dilema:
Dr says "Mr Jones, no wonder you can't hear, you've got a suppository stuck in your ear"
Mr Jones:  " So.....that's what happened to my hearing aid."

You've got me wanting an i-Pod now. Ron loves his too and even the girls are saying they want to start saving for one.
