I think you did a great job with the pictures. <br /><br />I really need to get my car fixed up so that I can properly connect my ipod to the radio. The FM receiver doens't have any decent quality at all.<br /><br />I wish I was able to better concentrate on an audiobook while working but I always start a chapter only to find myself two chapters later wondering what happened.Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07965647842119649711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3291822984443127930.post-74678656149653909362010-06-26T23:03:01.585-04:002010-06-26T23:03:01.585-04:00I don't think I have the brainpower or attenti...I don't think I have the brainpower or attention span to play computer games while listening ... too much going on!Jennershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08044537551139633301noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3291822984443127930.post-29860082570601597192010-06-26T17:59:55.962-04:002010-06-26T17:59:55.962-04:00I love the perspectives in all these photos, espec...I love the perspectives in all these photos, especially relaxing with your feet up!Dawn @ sheIsTooFondOfBookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09285873722005594325noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3291822984443127930.post-44536992517127225592010-06-26T11:20:15.159-04:002010-06-26T11:20:15.159-04:00I love your pictures - your iPhone is like Flat St...I love your pictures - your iPhone is like Flat Stanley!<br /><br />And your day lilies make me so sad...damn deer. grrr.
