http://www.huffingtonpost.com/tara-stiles/help-im-addicted-to-faceb_b_166726.htmlI have really enjoyed reconnecting with old friends, classmates and companions, and even some old, "more" than friends! But, what I have loved the most about
facebook is being able to feel apart of people's lives that I know. It is quite intimate if you think about some of the posts that are sent to me on a daily basis. Some of the people that I can get a regular update on I never really spoke that much to before. Some may say that it is a waste of time and maybe even geeky. I think that it could be- but, I have so enjoyed "hooking up" with companions from the Paris, France Mission 1990-1993. And with friends from Brighton High School Class of 1987. Especially chatting on a
regualr basis with the
BFF's. I have found friends from College and past jobs and those that we love and miss from our many past moves. It was hard to leave so many of you and I cherish any bit of continued relationship that I may keep. We started
facebook so that we could "chat" cheaply with family members in England and in other parts of the country. How fun it is to have
soo many other people to chat with! You could be on
facebook all day- I will admit I check it a couple of times a day. It is so fun for me to see all the fantastic things people that I know are doing in this big old world! But be careful-it is
PUBLIC!I read this in the article that I linked to this post- 10 warning signs that you may be addicted to Facebook
1. Facebook is your home page.
2. You update your status more than twice a day.
3. You have over 500 "friends" half of whom you've never actually met.
4. As soon as you step away from your computer you're on FB on your phone.
5. You are a FB stalker. You qualify as a FB stalker if you
a) click on someone's profile more than once a day even if they haven't messaged or tagged you in a photo.
b) have dragged and dropped more than 3 FB photos (not from your own profile)
c) actually go to a place mentioned on someone's page in hopes of seeing them in real life...creepy!
6. You change your profile picture more than a 12-year=old girl.
7. You have checked your FB page while reading this article.
8. You clean up your "wall" so it looks like you spend less time on FB.
9. You are a member of more than 10 groups and respond to every event invitation "attending" even if you have no intention of going.
10. You change your relationship status just to mess with people.

I just want to wish My Big/Little Brother Travis, or as I like to call him, ATB- A Happy Birthday! Travis has accomplished so much already in his life, and we are all so proud of him! He has always been a "special" boy- and I mean that in the good way! He is so funny- I mean, I can remember a time when Aimee and I were on my parents water bed and we were laughing so hard we thought that we would wet it! But, Travis is also the Incredible Hulk- he has a temper and when he gets mad- run for cover! When I would babysit I had to lock him in the bathroom or chase him around with a broom to get him to calm down! Good Times! Trav has found the most wonderful wife, and he has the cutest kids. He is such a good business man with such a good heart! He has helped Scott and I and he is always just a phone call away if you need to ask for advice or- you just need a compliment or two! Trav went on his mission right after I got home and it was so fun, that little time in between, to have him there to talk with- he was so excited to go and he was such a great missionary! He was so obedient- I went to Canada while he was on his mission to se
e a couple I had taught have their marriage sealed in the Ontario Temple. I called to see if I could meet up with him- he said that he would ask his President, his President said he didn't really want him to, so, Travis was obedient and we just exchanged information about my friend in his area and that was that. Travis is such an example of complete obedience! I am so amazed at all the wonderful things that he is doing and all of the people that he helps and how much he loves the Savior and His church. He is such a fantastic father and husband! I am glad to be his Little/Big Sister! Have a Great Day! We Love YOU!
