My middle schoolers would have a ball sneeking a peek into my personal life. I suppose it is dangerous enough with a blog...nosey kids! <br /><br />Hope you are well. Hope the family is doing well too, and the BA is enjoying school!<br /><br />I have been out with the daughter and Eli for the last two weeks, and my first day back to work is Monday. Do NOT want to go back! Have been wishing I could just stay home with them forever and still get paid. Hahaha Ok, I know it's time to be a big girl...er, a big grammy and face reality. Still don't wanna do it!<br /><br /> Hope you'll take a break from FB soon and tell more wonderful stories here! Take care...Andihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17193498123027264782noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7482552275229203298.post-41293999487659199832010-01-31T05:09:11.629+10:302010-01-31T05:09:11.629+10:30Oh no...

And when they changed the privacy settings tools, I guess all of the things defaulted to "friends of friends" can see. I had to change mine & especially have my daughter change hers. <br /><br />The way I think about it is, it's like anything online. You can be as careful as you can, but more or less it's public and your boss MIGHT see it. So I try and put on only stuff that's embarrassing and not stuff that could get me fired. I hope.Jillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10439582294571462742noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7482552275229203298.post-72056466898251919942010-01-30T11:05:54.979+10:302010-01-30T11:05:54.979+10:30I am a big fan of facebook -- it's just so fas...I am a big fan of facebook -- it's just so fast and easy!

I don't add everyone as a friend that asks.

Eventually, though, blogging regains its charm. <br />As for the photos, I have some of mine set to "friends only" and some set to "friends of friends", depending on the photos.

If I had known better, I would have never used the application "Networked Blogs". But it's too late now, perhaps. <br /><br />I adjusted my privacy long ago, AND I remove my name from ALL photos I post. <br /><br />And NEVER say yes to an application that asks for access to your friend list. <br /><br />Still, the positive effect my online life has had for me far outweighs the downside. I'll live with any embarassment it causes.The Honourable Husbandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05234119524600114890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7482552275229203298.post-71448570114973889562010-01-29T03:08:09.711+10:302010-01-29T03:08:09.711+10:30You're right, it's so much easier to post ...You're right, it's so much easier to post one liners to FB.HipMommahttp://thehipmommasjournal.squarespace.comnoreply@blogger.com
