This is my first blog and I am just a little nervous about how this is all going to go. The motivation to create the blog is to cure my addiction to Farmville on Facebook and my amazing ability to waste time online.
Farmville is a silly little computer game where you grow, harvest and seed crops for points. You have neighbors who are also on Farmville and you visit each other's farms and help each other out for points. Then you move up levels. I pride myself on not getting addicted to TV or video games etc. I therefore wonder what my life has come down to when I am unable resist the urge to check my status on Farmville three times a day. I have a large family, number four out of eight. Four of my siblings are my neighbors. The sad thing is that I seldom if ever interact with in real life. We all play this game and our competition for levels is just a weird kind of sibling rivalry.
The other annoying thing about Farmville is that I work on that rather than my real garden. That needs harvesting before the Oregon frost hits. So it's not like I have nothing else to do with my time. My husband who loves to grow everything he can possibly think of was getting rather perturbed at me today as he was weeding and harvesting and I was playing on the computer. So after several threats, I joined him in the garden and now have a huge container of semi ripe tomatoes and carrots. It all ended up well.
Coming Soon....Our war with a Vole.
