Things I never thought would happen

Grandparents are the best. They listen, love to give presents, and best of all ... when they get excited it puts everyone in a great mood. that's what happened this past christmas. My grandparents are stepping into the 21st century and going digital. They've just bought a Dell Laptop and are getting internet access. Amazing. .. I remember years ago, at the Centellas house, talking with my brothers about webpages, digiatl cameras, laptops, while my grandparents sat by. Just nodding, trying to follow the conversation with smiles. But this is just funny .... let me give you the run down of the items my grandparents got for christmas.

1) HP Photo quality printer - USB compatible... I'm sure that ment a lot to them. ;)
2) A pack of floppies (High density and assorted colors). ... (This is great because my granparents do not know the difference between DVDs, CDs and Floppies, or they called them, "The Floppy")
3) 1 Digital Picture CD - from me, as a challenge ...
4) One extra Mouse ... The package said 2 button mouse.... that raised the question as to what is the difference between the buttons.
5) E-mail accounts

My grandparents are going to love all thier new gifts... but maybe we should have moved them one step at a time. The only reassurring thing, is that they have a club of computer people in Florida who are going to help them get set up. This is really great, maybe I'll catch them on IM.

Well, I missed my chance to post on Christmas but you didn't miss much. Just me stuffing my face in between deep 12 hr sleeps. I also occassionaly woke to drink, and go to the bathroom. This break I got a chance to hang with the Rents a lot more. It was really nice. :)

Tomorrow I am driving to NYC for New Year's Should be great. But for now, here are some pics of the last week.
