I will mention this to friends, not something that has come up in conversation. I guess we are all getting used to everything being done 'in the moment' ... you can buy a book and it comes to the kindle in less than minute, order something and in some cases its delivered later that day ... are breeding a society of impatient young people .... ooops better get off my soapbox lol. xJuliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13863899802782756191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4841505878252085938.post-8484377444218746502019-02-07T10:33:12.650+00:002019-02-07T10:33:12.650+00:00That sounds like a very troubling occurrence over ...That sounds like a very troubling occurrence over there.
