I went into my iTunes store and looked up some ‘best of’ albums.
Hubs had watched a special on Simon and Garfunkel and admitted he would like to hear more of them because when they were hot he was into Jefferson Airplane, Loving Spoonful, Chicago, The Who and Cream.
Well, not so much into them as working for them so he had to be biased. Now he can switch affiliations without the risk of losing his job.
In the iTunes store on my iPod, I found a couple of Simon and Garfunkles and carried the list into hubs.
He scrolled, with my help, through the songs and smiled.
“34 songs for £10.00 that’s 17 a side.”
“17 a side?” I scoffed. A scoff is good; a cross between a sneer and an eye roll, neither of which are allowed in our house now that we are a completely teenage-free zone.
“Yes,” hubs snorted back.
“What are you talking about, it’s a CD not a record?” He still looked confused, “you don’t turn a CD over…” I clarified.
“Oh yes,” he remembered, “I was thinking it would be a record since the originals were!”
How confused we old folks get with the changing of the times.
Well hello there! My name is Vivienne McNeny.
I am an empty nester exploring life as a Boomer…you could say I'm happily Boomering along!
As a homeschooling Mum I have finally quit the job of role model and mentor to my four children. I do what I want to do, eat when I feel like it, enjoy life with my blue eyed cowboy and clean my house once a month or so whether it needs it or not!
In true English form I write about the emergence of my true identity now that I can no longer hide behind my children as their Mum.
