all so full of Nuance. We could use the word…..precocious. or, trouble. or, both. Sometimes Alyssia leaves her laptop going and falls asleep or goes off to do something. We can only assume.
Amazon delivered these plastic popbead kinds of things yesterday. A little box of them…she calls it her Treasure Chest. She was so so happy to see them. Turns out she somehow had ordered them….going through the whole process. completeing the order .No one knew. But they arrived and she did.
all i can think is sometimes a girl’s gotta do what a girl’s gotta do.

I’ve read through this four times already and am still here shaking my head. The look on her face – she NEEDED these. Also makes me aware how easy “they” have made it for us to spend our money.
Does she do tech calls for those of us less savvy?

I had to read this twice … crazy amazing that she was able to order online what she wanted. Me I still need help half the time. Hehehe I have to laugh cuz part of me is so proud of her. The other part says keep that computer away from her.

She went for the gusto on this one, probably because she anticipated some future restrictions. I’m sure she’ll hear this story several times in years to come.

she can’t “tell” how she did it….she is just familiar

Give her another year for tech assistance.
