Yes, heated automobile seats are such a pleasure on a cold day/night, aren't they? We don't have them in our Jeep but I certainly appreciate them when I'm sitting in a car that has them.<br /><br />Yay to digital cameras, too. And to digital flashes that work with digital cameras. Yay for computers, Photoshop and the internet, too! Yay for Netflix!

When we moved into our house it didn't have one and the deal was that the big screen TV would not be allowed in the house until I had one. Needless to say we got a dishwasher.<br />Also:<br />The internet, I can do without watching tv for several days, but the internet? Not so much. <br />I also love my ipod, particularly now that I have audio books. Audio books have a way to keep me motivated even when I don't want to clean. WHich is most of the time.<br />And lastly my laptop with the program Scrivner. It's a writers wonderland.Deborah Moorehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17668024188420581106noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-534124540070958712.post-44443598190908011112009-12-18T15:25:15.655-07:002009-12-18T15:25:15.655-07:00I hadn't heard of Yaktrax.

Many years ago my house-mates and I used to play cards and drink a few bottles of wine late into the night, and we would always end up with an argument about some fact or other - who played bass on that track, or who was in such and such film - or where are so and so mountains. We reckoned we could do with a dial-an-encyclopaedia available 24/7. Well now it is here! I still love looking up obscure facts.Jillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18410318976755292700noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-534124540070958712.post-24680534108779753132009-12-18T09:43:23.053-07:002009-12-18T09:43:23.053-07:00And I like the new sheets that never wear out and ...And I like the new sheets that never wear out and get a hole in.
