Rock On


When I was younger we never had a lot of things that were "in" at that time. Leather Nike shoes with the red swoosh, styling jeans, new bikes, etc. We weren't poor, just lived paycheck to paycheck (oh wait I think I still do that now). Anyway, last night Hubby and I went to an auction and bought...wait for it.....an A.T.A.R.I!!! Yep, the one thing we always had to go over to the neighbors house to play is now sitting in our living room just waiting for me to get home from work. I must say, I think I totally rock at Pac Man. The kids were a little disappointed as they have heard of Atari but never really seen one in action. Boy, have they missed out. Who needs Wii, Playstation, X-box when you can kick some Pac Man butt!!!

Also, got some bad news this a.m. from Hubby. His place of business is shutting down Mondays and Fridays and the first week of July. I know, I know it could be worse as it is for others, but this was a shock to us and he is definitely the bread winner in the family. Guess we should of refinanced the house last month.

I remember the Atari very well! Yep, and I wish I still had it.

I'm so sorry about the job situation... I pray all works out.

Hugs♥

We have a Wii and the first Nitendo and I can not believe how things have changed. We use to have an Atari too and I loved it. Before I got the Wii that is.
